H5000 Performance Base Package

The H5000 Performance base pack includes the essential components to start your navigation system:

The H5000 CPU unit with Performance software pre-installed.

An H5000 display.

A basic NMEA 2000 network kit (Micro-C) for initial installation.

This pack is specifically designed for racing sailboats and superyachts. Its Performance software and computing power are optimized to manage complex systems and the precise data requirements of high-level navigation.

The Performance software is the most advanced in the H5000 range. It includes all the features of the Hydra (cruising) and Hercules (racing) versions, with additional superior processing capabilities. It can natively manage complex configurations such as:

Two wind sensors. Two rudders, with pincer angle calculation. Multiple appendages (port, starboard, and central foils).

Configuration, calibration, and diagnostics of the H5000 system are performed via an integrated web interface. Access it by connecting a PC, tablet, or smartphone to the Ethernet port of the central processing unit (CPU).

The H5000 central processing unit and system operate on a nominal 12V DC power supply.

The H5000 central processing unit provides extensive connectivity and is compatible with several standard networks:

NMEA 2000 (via the Micro-C network)NMEA 0183Ethernet (for access to the web configuration interface)

Yes, the H5000 system is designed to integrate seamlessly with B&G Zeus series multifunction displays, as shown in typical installation diagrams.

Yes, the Performance software integrates 3D motion correction for the boat (heel, pitch, yaw). This refines wind data accuracy, which is critical for racing performance.

Software updates for the H5000 central processing unit (CPU) are performed simply via its USB port.

Yes. The Performance version of the H5000 software is specifically designed to handle twin-rudder configurations and can even calculate and display the toe-in/out angle.

The H5000 central processing unit has an IPX4 ingress protection rating, protecting it against water splashes from all directions.

Yes, the H5000 central processing unit has native compatibility with the NMEA 0183 network, allowing you to integrate older devices into your modern navigation system.

The Performance software can calculate the speed and direction of the ground wind (Ground Wind). This data is an advanced variable that helps better understand real conditions and make tactical decisions, particularly in current zones.

No, the Performance base pack is the starting point of your system. It includes the central unit, a display and the necessary components to start the network. Sensors (wind, speed, depth, compass, etc.) must be purchased separately to complete the system according to your sailboat's requirements.

Yes, the system is designed to be modular. You can connect multiple displays to the NMEA 2000 network, such as Graphic Displays, Race Displays, or HV displays, to show the information where you need it on the boat.

Yes, the Performance software uses the boat's polar tables to calculate improved performance targets, such as target boat speed (Target Boat Speed) and optimal VMG (Velocity Made Good), to maximize your performance.

The H5000 central processing unit is equipped with a powerful ARM processor, delivering up to 50 times faster processing speed than previous-generation systems, ensuring real-time data updates.

Yes, the Performance software can manage configurations with multiple appendages, such as port, starboard, and central keels, which is essential for modern racing sailboats.

The Ethernet port is used to access the system's web configuration interface and to stream data to third-party applications. It allows you to perform all settings, calibrations, and diagnostics from a web browser on a computer, tablet, or smartphone.

SailSteer is an integrated tactical tool that centralizes and displays essential navigation data on a single screen. While exact details depend on the configuration, it typically shows heading, true wind, laylines, and other key regatta information.
