Description

Simrad - AP48 Autopilot Control Head w/Rotary Knob - 000-13894-001

Presented on a wide-angle and zero-fog color display, the AP48 is engineered for responsiveness and ease of use in all conditions. It pairs a large aluminium rotary control dial with dedicated keys for instant access to steering modes, automated turn patterns, and more.

Intuitive Autopilot Control

The AP48 combines the same intuitive interface of the compact AP44 with a larger rotary control dial, dedicated 'dodge' keys, and other extended keypad controls. The AP48's rotary dial enables precise steering adjustments, while dodge keys enable instant heading changes in one-degree or ten-degree increments. Designed for optimal control in all conditions, the AP48's large buttons are ideal for use with wet or gloved hands. To ensure all-weather visibility, an optically bonded display panel eliminates the possibility of condensation or fogging within the display. Transflective LCD technology makes use of reflected sunlight to brighten rather than obscure the screen, delivering superior daytime visibility and lower power consumption compared to traditional backlit displays.

Easy Access to Advanced Features

Your Simrad autopilot can do much more than keep you on course. The AP48 gives you easy access to a range of built-in turn patterns designed to assist with fishing, diving, or just making a quick and efficient U-turn. No Drift Steering counteracts the effects of wind and tide; making it easy to maintain a straight track over ground on your current heading, without having to manually set a waypoint or route. Depth Contour Tracking works to maintain a constant depth of water beneath your boat, and is an ideal tool for fishing ledges and drop-offs.

Low-Profile 'Glass Helm' Design

Designed to complement Simrad glass helm displays, instruments, and controllers, the AP48 features modern styling with a low flush-mount profile of just eight millimetres excluding the rotary dial. A smart layout maximises the size of the AP48's display and controls, while keeping its overall footprint down to enable easy flush-mount installation almost anywhere. Alternatively, the controller can be bracket mounted to allow even more installation options.

Features:

  • Intuitive autopilot interface with extended keypad
  • Large, heavy-duty rotary control dial for precision steering
  • Continuum steering technology
  • Optically bonded 4.1-inch color display
  • Ultra-wide 170-degree viewing angle
  • Dedicated one-degree and ten-degree port/starboard dodge keys
  • Automated turn patterns for fuel-efficient, hands-free maneuvers
  • No Drift steering holds your course against wind and tide
  • Depth contour tracking makes it easy to fish ledges and drop-offs
