BCS460: A Smart Battery Control System

Think of the BCS460 as your personal onboard "Sparky," designed to tell you how your electrical systems are operating and exactly when your power will run out. The system displays essential metrics, including Volts, Amps, and kWh, alongside accurate estimates and historical charts to help track past performance.

Whether you are a continuous cruiser, a liveaboard, or docked for the winter, the BCS460 accurately predicts your power reserves.

Key Features:

• Intelligent Monitoring: Calculates remaining power by monitoring real-time battery usage, checking weather reports for solar systems, and accounting for engine charging.
• Scalability: Capable of monitoring setups ranging from an ideal 3-to-12 battery system up to expansive 20, 30, or 40 battery systems.
• Chemistry Compatibility: Fully supports a mixture of battery chemistries, including Lead, Li-ion, and LFP.
• Smart Detection: Analyzes the switching of equipment to recognize power draws and usage patterns, even without direct knowledge of appliances like a fridge or electric grill.

Hardware Specifications:

• Thermistors: 2 highly accurate probes ranging from around -20°C to 150°C.
• Inputs: 6 customizable input signals and 4 current measuring connections placed on battery terminals.
• Outputs: 4 safely fused relay outputs designed to drive up to 500mA at VDC, allowing you to establish optimized charging circuits.

EMS460: Your Chief Mechanical Engineer

The EMS460 is an AI 'Chief Engineer' that implements proven, industrial-grade physics formulas to predict future engine problems well before they leave you stranded. From the moment you turn the ignition, it watches every aspect of your engine, giving you total peace of mind.

Key Features:

• Advanced Analytics: Analyzes start times, listens for unusual engine sounds, and constantly monitors temperatures and pressures to detect anomalies.
• Connectivity: Comes standard with WiFi/Bluetooth to connect to phones, watches, and other NaviMon units, alongside an RS-485 connection.
• Customizable I/O: Features 6 input devices (recommended for water temperature, oil pressure, and alternator 'W' output) and 4 outputs (up to 0.5A each) for running LEDs or triggering relays like push-button starts.
• Temperature Tracking: Includes highly accurate thermistors designed for a range of -20°C to +120°C.

Optional Expansion Modules:

• Fuel Module: Multi-sensor support for fuel levels and flow meters.
• Turbo Sensors: Includes a vacuum pressure sensor and high-capacity 1000°C temperature sensors.
• Temperature Board: A dedicated board featuring 6x thermistor sensors for rigorous temperature tracking.
• More I/O: Generalized input and output expansion capabilities.

NAV100: Smart Navigation

The Navigator is a smart hub that integrates into your network, connecting all other NaviMon devices while providing highly precise boat dynamics.

Key Features:

• Precision Hardware: Equipped with a multi-GNSS GPS receiver, accelerometer, gyro, compass, and barometer.
• Vessel Dynamics: Aims for one-meter accuracy with IMU routines, allowing the system to calculate anchor drift or instantly detect if a mooring to a pontoon has slipped.
• Intelligent Journey Planning: Calculates optimal departure times by evaluating daylight hours, sunrise/sunset times, and weather patterns across multiple points of your planned journey.
• Automated Tracking: Automatically tracks stationary days for strict mooring limits and maps this data into your scheduled trips.
• Local Storage: Stores journeys locally, automatically recognizing regular routes and calculating paths without requiring manual entry.

Connectivity Options:

• Standard: WiFi and Bluetooth capabilities.
• Expansions: Supports long-range external boards, including cellular 4G/5G, IoT/LTE, and LoRaWAN networks.
• Future-Proofing: Ready to integrate upcoming satellite and Iridium-type services.
