Shipcontroller NET Overview
Shipcontroller NET is an extension of the Shipcontroller system that allows multiple radio transceivers to be deployed across the boat's deck, creating a mesh of communication nodes with the following advantages:
- Enhanced robustness and range: Particularly beneficial on large vessels or in situations where a metallic deck can block radio signals.
- Redundancy and high availability: Ensuring continuous operation of the radio system for critical applications.
The radio transceivers are interconnected via the Shipcontroller CANbus, which can extend up to 250 meters, or even further with bus extensions. The transceivers are powered directly from the CANbus, simplifying installation.
The NET system supports multiple remote controls, even from different models, with concurrency control to ensure that only one has control at a time.
