Zestaw EXOCET ESSENTIAL

The EXOCET ESSENTIAL Kit is an all-in-one box designed for navigation, advanced data management, autopilot control, and safety at sea. It integrates proven algorithms from offshore racing (IMOCA, Ultim) to provide a standardized and high-performance solution. This system is ideal for demanding sailors looking to optimize performance and safety.

The EXOCET ESSENTIAL Kit offers several key features:

Advanced calculation of true wind and leeway for reliable indicators.Data collection, processing, and precise retransmission of navigation data.Automatic sensor failure management, switching to an alternative source in case of failure.Navigation data recording at a frequency of 1Hz.Performance and safety overlay for autopilot optimization, including B&G H5000 systems.Enhanced Man Overboard (MOB) function, capable of detecting MOB events and initiating automatic actions.Customizable alert system.

The EXOCET ESSENTIAL Kit installation is designed to be self-contained. An installation guide is provided with the kit to simplify the process. Additionally, 2 hours of remote support are included during the first year to assist the user.

The EXOCET ESSENTIAL Kit is designed for broad compatibility and seamless integration. It is compatible with NMEA 2000 displays from brands such as B&G, Simrad, and Garmin. It also enhances autopilot performance, including B&G H5000 systems, through dedicated piloting overlays.

The EXOCET ESSENTIAL integrates automatic sensor failure management. In the event of a sensor failure, the system switches without interruption to an alternative source to ensure continuous information and the reliability of navigation data.

Yes, the EXOCET ESSENTIAL Kit logs navigation data at a 1Hz frequency. This data can then be sent ashore via the EXOCET Cloud interface (subscription required) for storage, visualization, and real-time remote analysis, providing a solid foundation for post-navigation analysis.

The EXOCET ESSENTIAL housing has the following physical specifications:

Weight: 350 gDimensions: L113 x H97 x D40 mmMaterials: Anodized aluminumProtection rating: IP67

The EXOCET ESSENTIAL Kit is an all-in-one solution designed to optimize your navigation, data management, autopilot, and safety at sea. Its main features include:

Advanced navigation hub: It provides precise calculation of true wind and leeway.Data management: The kit collects, processes, and retransmits navigation data, with recording at a 1Hz frequency for post-navigation analysis.Automatic sensor failure management: In case of sensor failure, the system automatically switches to an alternative source to ensure continuous data flow.Optimized autopilot: It includes dedicated autopilot overlays for performance and safety, delivering intelligent trajectory commands for faster and safer navigation, particularly for B&G H5000 systems.Enhanced Man Overboard (MOB) function: The system can detect MOB events from various sources and automatically act by alerting the crew, providing critical real-time data, and potentially initiating a course change for the boat.Intuitive user interface: A web interface allows easy configuration and visualization of data.Alert system: Customizable alerts can be set for any sensor failure or weather change.

The EXOCET ESSENTIAL standard kit is supplied with the following items:

One EXOCET Essential unitTwo connection cables (CAN + CAN Ethernet)One installation guideTwo hours of remote support during the first year

The Man Overboard (MOB) function of the EXOCET ESSENTIAL is designed for safety. It can detect MOB events from various sources, such as the web interface, navigation software, an NMEA 2000 button, or an AIS-SART beacon. Upon detection, the system alerts the crew, displays critical real-time data (position, bearing, distance, elapsed time) on multi-display NMEA 2000-compatible devices (B&G, Simrad, Garmin, etc.) and via the web interface. It can also automatically act by changing the boat's course with a command to the autopilot to stop, and potentially deploy a Jon Buoy if the system is configured to do so.

The EXOCET ESSENTIAL housing is equipped with numerous interfaces for optimal connectivity:

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

Although the EXOCET ESSENTIAL Kit integrates proven algorithms from IMOCA and Ultim, making it ideal for offshore racing and demanding sailors, it is designed to adapt to the majority of projects. Its high-performance navigation features, data management, and enhanced safety make it relevant for any type of navigation where precision and reliability are paramount, including demanding cruising.

The EXOCET ESSENTIAL Kit requires an input voltage between 9 and 51 volts (DC). Its power consumption is 4 watts.

The EXOCET ESSENTIAL housing is designed to withstand harsh marine environments. It is made of anodized aluminum, has an IP67 waterproof rating, and can operate within a temperature range of -10°C to +50°C.

Yes, options are available to complement the EXOCET ESSENTIAL Kit. Two packs are mentioned:

Exocet Essential option Buzzer Pack: Includes the Exocet Buzzer, ExoConnect Analog, Exocet Bracket, an Exocet Essential keypad (6 keys), and one day of on-water commissioning and training by a sailing engineer.
Exocet Essential option Voice Pack: Includes the Exocet Voice (planned compatibility in 2026), ExoConnect Analog, Exocet Bracket, an Exocet Essential keypad (6 keys), and one day of on-water commissioning and training by a sailing engineer.
