Unique. Powerful. Universal. Expandable.
At the heart of the solution is the Airmar SmartBoat Module
(ASM), a universal NMEA 2000 device with browser-based SmartFlex™
software that eliminates the need to buy additional hardware,
software, or dedicated displays to program the modules or view the
data. All data is readily accessible on your MFD.
SmartFlex View uses intuitive, menu-driven
guidance for the set up and control of all connected devices. Drop
down menus make set-up intuitive and fast.
SmartFlex View is accessible by any device with a web browser,
e.g., laptop, tablet or any wireless device with a web browser.
Airmar SmartBoat Modules (ASMs) boast an exceptionally versatile
alerting system. Users can define alerts for any PGN on the
network, tailoring them to individual preferences and creating
customized alerts based on real-time sensor status.
Examples include defining personalized oil pressure alerts at
varying RPM ranges; or alerts for specific conditions, such as
exceeding a designated wind speed while an awning is deployed,
with the added convenience of automated awning retraction.
The SmartFlex Alert configuration offers
flexibility with four types of alert variables:
- PGN Value: Extract information directly from PGN messages to create alerts.
- Calculated Value: Formulate logic equations from multiple values for sophisticated alert conditions.
- Timer: Set alerts based on whether a desired variable did or did not occur within a specified time frame.
- Event Counter: Monitor events over time, triggering alerts when a specific event happens a defined number of times.
Binary Switch Values and NMEA 2000 Integration
Extend your control beyond mere alerts. The Airmar SmartBoat
Solution enables the setting of binary switch values and the
generation of NMEA 2000 bus alert messages. This integration
allows you to effortlessly display alerts on a wide range of
Multi-Function Displays (MFDs), ensuring that you have a
comprehensive overview of your vessel's status.
The SmartFlex Filter empowers users with precise control over PGN message traffic between the primary and secondary NMEA 2000 buses. Offering a straightforward programming interface, users can effortlessly determine whether a specific PGN from one bus is bridged to the other. The SmartFlex Filter utilizes an intuitive 'AllowList/BlockList' configuration approach, providing users with the flexibility to seamlessly manage the bridging or blocking of PGNs based on their preferences.
