MAD Interface Digital, modul pro sběr dálkových ovládání

The MAD Digital Interface, also called MADDigital, is a command acquisition module designed by MADINTEC. It serves as an interface to collect signals from remote controls and transmit them to the MADBrain autopilot system.

In the MADBrain Autopilot system, the MAD Interface Digital centralizes and transmits commands received from the remote controls (MADRemotes) to the MADBrain navigation processor via the CAN bus. It is the entry point for manual interactions with the autopilot.

The MAD Interface Digital is compatible with MADRemotes remote controls from MADINTEC. This includes wired remotes and, via the MADRemote Receiver, wireless remotes.

The MAD Interface Digital connects to the rest of the MADBrain system via the MADINTEC CAN bus. This bus is NMEA 2000 compatible, enabling a simple and fast installation described as 'plug & play'.

Yes, the MAD Interface Digital integrates natively with the NMEA 2000 network via its connection through the MADINTEC CAN bus, which is compatible with this standard.

Yes, the MAD Interface Digital is a key component of the MADBrain Autopilot system. It is included in the base pack and is required for acquiring external commands transmitted by remote controls.

The MAD Interface Digital module is designed and manufactured in France, like all MADINTEC products.

The MAD Digital Interface is specifically designed to work with MADINTEC MADRemotes remote controls. Compatibility with remote controls from other brands is not guaranteed and is not mentioned in the documentation.

No, the MAD Interface Digital does not require a separate power supply. It is powered directly via the CAN bus MADINTEC to which it is connected, simplifying installation.

The MADDigital is the acquisition module that receives and processes signals from the autopilot commands. The MADRemotes are the remote controls themselves, which are used by the helmsman to send instructions to the MADBrain autopilot.

The MADBrain Autopilot pack includes the MADDigital and a wired MADRemote remote control. Wireless remotes and their associated receivers are typically offered as additional options.

Yes, like the entire MADBrain Autopilot system, the MAD Interface Digital benefits from continuous evolution through regular software updates, ensuring improved performance and functionality.

Yes, the MAD Interface Digital is part of the MADINTEC marine electronics range and is specifically designed to provide optimal reliability and durability in the demanding conditions of the marine environment.

The MAD Interface Digital module weighs approximately 0.2 kg, making it a lightweight and easy-to-install piece of equipment on board.

No, installing the MAD Interface Digital is designed to be straightforward. It is described as 'plug & play' thanks to its direct connection to the MADINTEC CAN bus, which minimizes handling and configuration.

Yes, the MADBrain Autopilot system allows integration of multiple MADRemotes (wired or wireless via a receiver). The MADDigital is the module that acquires commands from these various sources.

Yes, the MAD Interface Digital is a component of the complete MADBrain Autopilot system. To operate and for its commands to be interpreted, it requires the presence of the MADBrain navigation processor, as well as other essential system modules.

No, the MAD Interface Digital is not a navigation processor. It is a command acquisition module. The central navigation processor role is handled by the MADBrain module.

The primary function of the MADDigital module is to acquire and transmit commands from the MADRemotes remote controls to the MADBrain autopilot system, enabling the helmsman to control the autopilot.
