Nexus 21 NX2 Good luck and happy boating, Server, Welcome aboard the Nexus Network

SERVER

Welcome aboard the Nexus Network!

Thank you for choosing NX2 and welcome to the world of the Nexus Network.

Through this manual we would like to help you install, operate and understand your new Nexus Network.

The Server is the ”heart” of your Nexus Network, to which transducers for speed, depth, heading, wind and navigation (GPS) are connected.

From the Server the single Nexus Network cable transmits power and data to the instruments, which repeat the information sent from the Server, or other NX2 transducers.

The Nexus Network is designed with the industry standard RS 485 databus, which allows you to connect up to 32 Nexus instrument units on the single Nexus Network cable, thereby allowing you the flexibility to easily develop your system. The Nexus Network is capable of carrying data 10 times faster than NMEA 0183.

The connection system, with a single 5 mm (1/5") cable and 4-pole jack plugs with cable protectors, makes the installation easy. No need to drill big holes and the cable can be cut to exact lengths. The connections at the Server are colour coded and marked with a number for easy reference.

NX2 Multi Control is a multi function instrument that displays a main and a sub-function together. You can easily ”customise” your favourite combination of functions, by using the unique method to move, copy and lock a sub-function.

The instruments large display gives you very good viewing possibilities from any angle, even in bright sunlight. The display and the five push-buttons have red back lighting which you can set to three different lighting levels.

A large selection of optional analogue repeaters and accessories are available. The analogue steer pilot instrument particularly offers unique functions. When used together with the steer reference function (AWA), you can actually steer after the wind and ”expand” the tacking or down wind angle.

These Nexus instruments carry a two year warranty, which gives you as our customer, confidence to trust Nexus and our commitment to quality.

To get the most out of your new Nexus product, please read through this manual carefully before you start your installation.

Again, thank you for choosing Nexus. If you see us at a show, stop by and say hello.

Good luck and happy boating!
