Pilot WR10 – bezprzewodowy panel sterowania

The remote communicates with its base station via a Bluetooth connection providing an effective range of up to 30 meters. This allows you to control your autopilot from anywhere on deck or at the helm.

The WR10 remote operates very simply with 2 standard AAA batteries. Thanks to low-power Bluetooth technology, it offers excellent battery life.

No, it is perfectly designed for the marine environment. The remote control has dual IPX6 and IPX7 waterproof certification, meaning it resists powerful water jets and temporary immersion.

The WR10 is fitted with a multi-color LED. When a command is accepted by the autopilot, the LED lights up green for 1 second. If the command is rejected or not received, it lights up red.

The arrow keys (left/right) allow easy heading adjustment:

Short press: heading adjustment in 1° increments
Long press (2 seconds): heading adjustment in 10° increments

Yes, the Autotack function is available when you are in Wind mode (WIND). Simply press both arrow buttons (left and right) simultaneously until the LED flashes rapidly in green, then press the AUTO button to confirm the tack.

The MODE button allows quick switching between different autopilot modes. On a sailboat, it alternates between AUTO and WIND modes. On other types of boats, it allows switching between AUTO and NoDrift modes (heading hold without leeway).

To keep it always within reach, the WR10 remote control comes with a lanyard to wear around your neck. A wrist strap is available as an optional accessory.

Yes, the remote control is designed to operate in harsh conditions, with an operating temperature range from -20°C to +55°C.

The WR10 was designed for intuitive use and has only 5 buttons: two direction arrows (port/starboard), a standby button (STBY), a MODE button, and an autopilot engage button (AUTO).

The base station connects very simply via Plug & Play directly to your NMEA 2000 backbone. It uses a standard Micro-C T-connector (included) and is powered directly via this network (9–16 V DC).

No, the base station's electrical consumption is extremely low. It draws less than 100 mA at 12V DC, which preserves the autonomy of your house batteries.

Only one Bluetooth base station can be paired with up to four WR10 remotes simultaneously. This is ideal if you want to equip multiple crew members or have remotes at different stations.

Yes, the base station meets the IPX7 waterproofing standard. It can therefore be installed in exposed locations if necessary, although you should always ensure its placement is optimized to guarantee the best Bluetooth signal range.

The base station comes with a 1.8-metre (6-foot) Micro-C drop cable, providing good flexibility for positioning relative to the NMEA 2000 backbone.

The WR10 remote control integrates seamlessly with the Navico group ecosystem. It is compatible with autopilots from Simrad, Lowrance, and B&G connected via NMEA 2000.

Yes, the remote control base station must be connected to a functional NMEA 2000 network to communicate with your autopilot computer and to receive its power supply.

Yes. When configured for a sailboat (SAIL mode), the MODE button allows activating WIND mode steering (tracking wind angle) and offers an automatic tacking function that is very useful for single-handed manoeuvres.

Yes, it is perfectly suited. For powerboats, the MODE button allows switching to the NoDrift function, which automatically compensates for leeway caused by wind or current to maintain an accurate ground track.

The system uses a low-power Bluetooth connection. This technological choice ensures a stable connection, excellent command responsiveness, and longer battery life for the remote compared to a classic Wi-Fi connection.
