Detailed description

The CYCLOPS Smarttoggle 7t is a wireless load cell designed for real-time monitoring of halyard tension on non-structural flying sails such as Code Zeros and asymmetric spinnakers. It enables optimization of consistent furling and sail handling by providing accurate data for performance tuning.

Performance and technical specifications

This load cell offers a maximum working load (MWL) of 7 tonnes (7000 kg), with an accuracy of ±1% of MWL across a temperature range from -10°C to +40°C. The pin diameter is 14 mm, with overall dimensions of 160 x 55 x 50 mm and a weight of 530 g. The body is made from aluminum Al6082-T6, while the Acetal housing provides water and dust protection with an IP68 rating.

Connectivity and battery life

The Smarttoggle 7t connects via Bluetooth to the Cyclops Marine mobile application for real-time monitoring and data logging. It can also integrate with onboard electronic systems via the Cyclops Marine Gateway (sold separately), offering compatibility with displays and chartplotters from brands such as B&G, Sailmon, Garmin, and Raymarine. Powered by a Lithium Polymer battery (0.925Wh), it provides up to 2,000 hours of operation in standard mode, 8,000 hours in extended use mode, and 2 years in standby mode. Wireless charging takes approximately 1 hour. An integrated smart button allows mode management and battery life preservation.

Installation and use

Designed for inline installation between the flying sail furler and the sail cable, the Smarttoggle 7t requires a minimum clearance of 25 mm for the furler jaw. Its pin-locking mechanism ensures secure installation. The Cyclops Marine application enables real-time load monitoring, session recording, and data analysis for continuous improvement of sail settings.

Expert opinion

« Tension control for Code 0 and flying sails »

The CYCLOPS Smarttoggle 7t sensor is a targeted technical solution for sailors looking to optimize the tuning of their non-structural flying sails. Its 7-tonne capacity and ±1% accuracy make it a reliable tool for performance sailboats and fast cruisers using asymmetric spinnakers or Code Zeros. Integrating this sensor allows quantification and reproduction of luff tension settings that were previously often based on feel, introducing new rigor to sail shape optimization and preventing overloads during furling maneuvers.

The inline installation is designed to be straightforward, though care must be taken to respect the 25 mm jaw clearance on the furler. Wireless Bluetooth connectivity to the app or via an NMEA gateway to onboard systems is a major asset, offering flexibility for data visualization. It is crucial to note that the Smarttoggle is not intended for structural rigging applications, such as primary forestays, nor for supporting personnel at height. Compliance with its maximum working load (MWL) is mandatory to preserve the integrity of the internal instrumentation and avoid permanent damage from shocks or overloads.

This model stands out for its robustness (Al6082-T6 aluminum, IP68) and extended battery life, complemented by convenient wireless charging. For a skipper focused on the performance and safety of their running rigging, the Smarttoggle 7t represents a strategic investment for collecting precise data and making informed decisions while sailing.

Frequently Asked Questions

Need help? Contact us

What is the purpose of the CYCLOPS Smarttoggle 7t load sensor?

The CYCLOPS Smarttoggle 7t is a wireless load sensor designed to monitor in real time the luff tension of non-structural flying sails, such as Code Zeros and asymmetric spinnakers. It enables optimization of the consistency of furling and sail handling through precise data, thereby contributing to high-performance trimming.

What is the maximum load that the Smarttoggle 7t can measure?

The Smarttoggle 7t is designed to measure a maximum working load (MWL) of 7 tonnes, i.e. 7000 kg. It is important not to exceed this limit to avoid damaging the internal instrumentation.

What is the accuracy of the measurements provided by the Smarttoggle 7t?

The Smarttoggle 7t offers ±1% accuracy of its Maximum Working Load (MWL) across a temperature range from -10°C to +40°C.

How should I install the Smarttoggle 7t transducer on my sailboat?

The Smarttoggle 7t is designed for inline installation. It must be placed between the furler of your headsail and the sail’s cable. Once installed, it connects easily to your smartphone via the dedicated app or to marine electronics systems via a Cyclops Marine Gateway (sold separately) to display load data.

It is important to note that the Smarttoggle 7t is not intended to support personnel working at height or to be used in structural rigging locations such as stays.

What is the minimum clearance required to install the Smarttoggle 7t?

For correct installation of the Smarttoggle 7t, a minimum clearance of 25 mm is required for the drum jaw.

What is the battery life of the Smarttoggle 7t and how is it recharged?

The Smarttoggle 7t is powered by a lithium polymer battery (0.925Wh) with multiple power modes:

Up to 2,000 hours in standard mode (1 Hz frequency).Up to 8,000 hours in extended-use mode (0.25 Hz frequency).Up to 2 years in powered-off mode.Wireless charging takes about 1 hour. Simply plug the wireless charger (not included) into a USB port and place the Smarttoggle on the charger with the wireless charging logo facing the charger. The sensor must be powered on for the charging indication to be visible.

Is the Smarttoggle 7t sensor waterproof and dust-resistant?

Yes, the Smarttoggle 7t is designed to withstand marine elements. Its Acetal housing provides protection against water and dust with an IP68 rating, ensuring operation in demanding environments.

How to install the Smarttoggle 7t load sensor on my sailboat?

The Smarttoggle 7t is installed inline, between the furler’s drum and the sail’s luff line. For correct and secure installation:

A minimum clearance of 25 mm is required for the furler’s jaw.It is imperative to read all provided instructions and perform a safety assessment before any use.The Smarttoggle 7t is not designed to support personnel working at height or for structural rigging applications such as stays.Never exceed the maximum working load (MWL) of 7 tonnes. A shock or overload beyond 150% of the MWL may cause permanent damage to the sensor and require recalibration.
