Cyclops smarttune®
smarttune® is a wireless load sensor that accurately measures your stay tension in real time. Simple for crews to retro-fit at the dock, smarttune® makes repeatable headsail shape control available for yachts of all sizes, at all levels. With precision-designed, highly-accurate wireless technology, smarttune® truly is a plug-in performance upgrade for your boat. Live and dynamic rig loading is transmitted either to your mobile device via a dedicated app or to your existing boat electronics. This allows you to measure and repeat your fastest settings, controlling your forestay ‘sag’ to manage your headsail shape and your mast bend by knowing your compression driver and so managing your mainsail shape. For the very best performance in all winds and sea conditions. Measure success.
How it works…
Simply swap out the bottlescrew body on either your forestay or side stays for the smarttune® turnscrew – so simple for crew to retro-fit at the dock! With the addition of our gateway and NMEA2000 lead, the data can integrate into your boat electronics system for the same live data on your displays.
Key Features:
- Plug & play installation -smarttune® fittings are a simple, screw-in replacement for existing turn screws. Wireless connectivity means no need for drilling holes to run cables from the sensor, and the receiver plugs directly into your existing instrument package.
- Wireless Technology -live forestay load data is sent wirelessly to your on-board instrumentation, or direct to your smartphone, for the ultimate in convenience.
- Designed for the elements -smarttune® Sensors are rated to IP67, meaning no dust ingress, and no water ingress when immersed between 15 centimetres and 1 meter in depth. The precision machined plastic bodies are designed and built to withstand the rigours of the foredeck.
- High accuracy load sensor -precision engineered for accuracy, smarttune® directly measures the actual forestay load – no more worries about alignment errors.
- Factory calibrated -smarttune® fittings go through a rigorous calibration procedure before being shipped, saving you from time-consuming calibration and providing accuracy “out of the box”.
- Precisions design -smarttune® fittings are created with the latest FEA computer design tools and built with state-of-the-art 3D manufacturing processes.
