EV Sensor Core

At the heart of the Evolution system lies the intelligent EV Sensor Core, a 9-axis sensor that meticulously monitors vessel movement across all three dimensions. This cutting-edge sensor integrates advanced solid-state technology with the Evolution autopilot processor within a single, easy-to-install housing.

Designed for both above and below deck installation, the robust enclosure meets IPX6 and IPX7 waterproofing standards, ensuring durability and reliability even in harsh marine environments.

The EV-1 is compatible with Evolution's mechanical and hydraulic autopilot systems. Utilizing SeaTalk^ng networking, it allows a streamlined single-cable connection for both power and data to the Evolution ACU (Actuator Control Unit), supporting extended SeaTalk^ng and NMEA2000 networks.

Sensor Core Highlights:

• Accurate monitoring of heading, pitch, roll, and yaw for dynamic autopilot adjustments
• Flexible mounting options suitable for various deck configurations
• Seamless SeaTalk^ng connectivity with control head and ACU
• Solid-state sensors provide precision within 2 degrees under all conditions
• Reliable heading data integration with MARPA, radar overlays, and Raymarine displays
