The MAP Pilot may be accompanied by the
MAP
Multi-Function Display (MFD)
, an LCD touchscreen
equipped with the Android OS. You can use it to
access the
MAP Application
(refer to Sec. 4 on page

vessel for autonomous steering through a series of
waypoints set to your desired location.
The back panel of the MFD contains a set of connectors, as displayed in Fig. 8. These include the input
power connector, a connector for the GPS module used by the MAP Application, a USB-to-3.5mm
audio jack, as well as an auxiliary CAN bus port to interface with the marine sensors on your vessel:
