Procesor Exocet Essential

The Exocet Essential processor is an all-in-one unit designed for navigation, data management, autopilot control, and safety. It integrates proven algorithms from offshore racing (IMOCA and Ultim) to make this technology accessible. The 2025 version includes improved Man Overboard safety features and new analysis tools.

The main features of the Exocet essential include:

Advanced calculation of true wind and leeway. Collection, processing, and retransmission of navigation data. Automatic sensor failure management. Customizable alert system. 1Hz navigation data logging. Man Overboard (MOB) management with automatic course change. Performance and safety overlays for autopilot, particularly for B&G H5000 pilots.

The Exocet essential unit is supplied with:

Two connection cables (one CAN cable and one CAN Ethernet cable). An installation guide. Two hours of remote support during the first year.

The Exocet essential processor is compatible with NMEA 2000 displays from brands such as B&G, Simrad, and Garmin. It is also designed to optimize the performance of B&G H5000 autopilots through its piloting overlays.

The Exocet Essential processor has the following interfaces:

1x Ethernet 2x CAN 2.0 6x 16-bit analog inputs (50 Hz) 2x digital contact inputs 3x digital contact outputs 5x RS232 ports 1x RS232 / RS422 port

The Exocet Essential processor requires an input voltage of 9 to 51V, compatible with 12/24VDC systems. Its power consumption is 4W.

Yes, the Exocet Essential processor has an IP67 waterproof rating. This means it is fully protected against dust and can withstand temporary immersion in water.

Yes, standalone installation of the Exocet Essential processor is possible. An installation guide is included with the product, and two hours of remote support are offered during the first year to assist you.

The Exocet Essential processor offers several key advantages for navigation:

It is a 3-in-1 product, combining a navigation computer, data management, and high-performance autopilot. It ensures automated sensor failure management, automatically switching to another sensor in case of malfunction. It provides precise and responsive true wind calculation, including boat leeway estimation. The system is scalable, designed to receive software updates and integrate new features. It offers broad compatibility for optimal integration and connectivity. Standalone installation is possible.

Yes, the Exocet essential is designed to optimize the performance of your autopilot, including B&G H5000 pilots. It uses safety and performance overlays that provide intelligent trajectory commands. This improves your boat's behavior, delivering a faster and safer track.

The Exocet Essential processor logs navigation data at a 1Hz frequency. It then allows these data to be sent ashore via the EXOCET Cloud interface, available by subscription. Once on the Cloud, the data can be stored, viewed, and analyzed remotely and in real time. The 2025 version also introduces new analysis tools based on graphs.

Yes, the Exocet Essential integrates a customizable alert system. These alerts are designed to inform the crew of any sensor failure or weather changes, thereby contributing to safer and more secure navigation.

The Exocet Essential processor weighs 350 grams. Its dimensions are 113 mm in length, 97 mm in height, and 40 mm in depth (L113 x H97 x D40mm). The housing is made of anodized aluminum.

Yes, the Exocet Essential processor is designed to be scalable. The system can receive software updates to integrate new features and improve performance over time.

The Exocet essential processor integrates a Man Over Board (MOB) function that automatically activates upon detection. This feature includes:

A course change with a command sent to the autopilot to stop the boat. Automatic deployment of a Jon Buoy.
