Introduction

System introduction
Sailmon system provides a whole new look to yachting electronics for a wide range of
vessels, from top end racing yachts to weekend cruisers. Sailmon products are developed to
bring, combine and view all data on board, anywhere, anytime.
The heart of the Sailmon network is the E4 processor. This small but powerful central
processor unit provides all the navigation information that is needed. With more than six data
compatibilities, it is the smartest and most advanced CPU on the market. Powered with
either 12 or 24VDC it is possible to install the E4 nearly anywhere on board. With the use of
WiFi, data is accessible everywhere.
The sunlight viewable displays enable all data to be selected and displayed at all locations.
Using the standard 100BASE-TX fast Ethernet communication network, all displays can be
connected to one E4 processor. Sailmon displays use our proprietary S-NET cable and
connector system, which contain power and data wiring, made from waterproof components
to survive the harsh conditions found at sea. Power and ethernet is combined in our
dedicated SAILethernet.
To complete your system, sensors from any manufacturer can be added using our
interfacing boxes, including load cell, wind instruments, through hull transducers and linear
inputs. You can also use existing sensors when you upgrade to the E4
