Based on the same proven technology as our award winning NAVTEX receivers, the new NAV6 Series V3 NAVTEX systems have a new receiver design that now includes a barometric pressure sensor and micro USB port.
The ability to predict the weather is essential when at sea. The ICS barometric display provides a high resolution digital barograph that can scaled and scrolled over the previous seven days. It provides reliable, clear information that is easily operated from the NAV6 display or eNAVTEX App on a PC.
The NAV6 was the world’s first NAVTEX system to offer simultaneous 518kHz and 490kHz reception as standard with Maritime Safety Information presented on a large and easy to read LCD display. The NAV6plus offers our all new digital barograph, automatic station selection, an NMEA data logger and a range of standard and custom instrument repeater displays.
The NAV6 display systems store all messages received in a large non-volatile memory for selective display by the user. Decide what messages you want to view after they have been received. Unique message processing decreases errors in received messages.
Choose from the NAV6 Standard, NAV6plus, NAV6 eNAVTEX or the Premium System which includes a display based NAVTEX receiver and the PC eNAVTEX that can be used with the receiver at the same time.
