The operating system has been redesigned for a simplified interface and customizable app shortcuts.

Advanced Fishfinder and Charting

The Simrad NSS 4-12 features an integrated dual-channel 1 kW CHIRP fishfinder and supports Active Imaging™ and Active Imaging™ HD technologies, including SideScan for detailed views of underwater structures and fish. It enables sonar data sharing between networked devices and display on shared screens. Bundled with a worldwide base map, the unit is compatible with detailed C-MAP Discover™ X, C-MAP Reveal™ X, and third-party charts such as CMOR and StikeLines, enabling fast chart rendering and optimized auto-routing. It includes two microSD®/SDHC® card slots for external storage.

Connectivity and System Integration

This MFD offers extensive connectivity with two Ethernet ports (one X-Coded M12 GbE and one 5-pin), a Micro-C NMEA 2000 port, and Wi-Fi 5 (IEEE 802.11ax). It supports HDMI video input and is compatible with ONVIF IP cameras. Integration extends to Simrad NAC-1, NAC-2, NAC3, NAC-D autopilots, Simrad HALO® radars, Simrad RECON™, Rhodan®, and Motorguide® trolling motors, as well as Czone / DDS digital switching systems. It also supports engine data integration for Mercury, Honda, and Suzuki outboards, including speed control, active trim, fuel management, and diagnostics. Marine audio and SiriusXM (via WM4 module, USA only) are also supported.

The Simrad NSS 4-12 offers hybrid controls, combining a responsive touchscreen, a rotary dial, and a keypad with one-touch functions. Customizable buttons provide instant access to favorite functions. The unit operates on 12/24 V DC power (10 to 31.2 V DC) with a maximum consumption of 40 W and weighs 2.8 kg.
