Introduction

The SW RP07 provides accurate digital instrumentation for boat speed and average boat speed, trip 
distance and total distance traveled, water temperature, elapsed time and provides a race timer that 
can be preset to two different (pre-programmable) values.
The SW RP07 displays speed and average speed up to 50.0 Knots (58 M.P.H.) in tenths, very 
accurate water temperature in degrees F or C in tenths, trip log to 999.9 miles and permanent log to 
9,999 miles. 
A downcounting race timer is presettable for two different start times from 1 to 99 minutes each. It 
beeps off the minutes and last ten seconds before reaching zero. After reaching zero, the race timer 
continues to track elapsed time.
Speed can be displayed in Knots, MPH and KM/H with selectable display damping. Temperature 
can be displayed in degrees Fahrenheit or Celsius. Speed, temperature and clock speed may all be 
calibrated using the front panel keys.
Five   levels   of   backlighting   can   be   selected   and   remotely   switched   ON/OFF.  All   setup   and 
calibration constants are saved to a non-volatile memory. The SW RP07 outputs NMEA
0183 data of boat speed, logs, and water temperature and works on both 12 and 24 VDC systems.
The SW RP07 with its large display digits draws only .035 amps and only .055 amps with full 
backlighting. Both transom mount and thru-hull mount speed/temperature transducers are available
separately.
