Product Description
The R5 SUPREME Navigation System MkII features an IMO type approved GPS Navigation
sensor, providing robust and highly accurate position information to external equipment
through a large number of integrated interfaces.
The R5 SUPREME Navigation System MkII is available in two versions, GNSS and DGNSS,
with and without IALA Beacon reception capability. One R5 Navigation Systems consists of
an external antenna, a navigation sensor and a Control and Display Unit (CDU).
The installation options are very flexible; It is possible to add an R5 Supreme AIS
Transponder for a combined AIS and Navigation using a single CDU unit. Several Navigation
systems can be combined in redundant configurations. Additionally passive CDUs may be
connected to the navigation system using network interfaces.
The R5 CDU has a seven-inch colour touch display and provides a graphical interface to the
system. Via the R5 CDU it is possible to create, edit and modify routes and waypoints,
navigate following a route, plot the route, view sensor data, configure the system as well as
supervise the system status. It is also possible to configure the R5 CDU for combined AIS
MKD functionality when adding an R5 SUPREME AIS Transponder.
For installations without the R5 CDU, a web-interface is built-in to the R5 Navigation sensor.
The Web-interface allows for status monitoring, interface configuration, change of positioning
parameters and SW updates.
Although delivered in GPS only mode, the R5 GNSS and R5 DGNSS sensors feature a
powerful 372 channel receiver capable of combined GPS, GLONASS, BEIDOU and
GALILEO reception with a 10Hz update rate. The combined use of several satellite based
navigation systems can be enabled by the operator at any time. This increases robustness
and reliability of the navigation solution, ensuring maximum possible coverage world-wide.
Approved antenna options are the MGA-3 GNSS antenna for the GNSS sensor, and also the
MGL-5 combined GNSS/Beacon antenna for the DGNSS sensor.
