Offering larger screen sizes, higher resolutions, and advanced functionalities that surpass the KP Series, the KM Series is designed to provide a comprehensive and superior navigation experience.

    Flexible Connectivity

    The KM Series supports NMEA0183, NMEA 2000, Wi-Fi, HDMI and Ethernet connectivity, allowing for seamless integration with other marine systems. This makes it easy to expand and customize your navigation setup.

    User-Friendly Interface

    The intuitive physical buttons interface makes it easy to navigate through settings and features. Designed for ease of use, the KM Series is accessible to both experienced mariners and those new to maritime navigation.

    Radar Overlay on Charts

    The KM Series allows radar data to be overlaid on nautical charts, combining visual navigation aids with real-time radar information. This feature enhances situational awareness by showing radar echoes on the chart, making it easier to correlate radar returns with charted objects.

    Built-in AIS Features

    • KM-8X and KM-8A,KM-12Xand KM-12A: Built-in Class B+ AIS Transponder (VHF Antenna needed)
    • KM-8 and KM-8C, KM-12 and KM-12C: KS-200A and VHF Antenna needed

    SONAR SHARE AND RADAR SHARE

    Radar functions are shared to ALL units in the network (ONWA Radar Antenna must be connected to KM-Router within the network). There is NO server or client for radar share, which shares the radar images through KM-router and ALL units can control the radar antenna through KM-router.
