Marport M6PRO

A Factory Trawler's Net Monitoring system is a critical component in strategically targeting the catch with reduced risk; and Marport continue to push boundaries with this next generation M6 PRO technology. 

The M6 PRO system works with an Apple Mac mini, an Mx computer and two Mx receivers. The Mx computer processes the signal and displays the data on a screen connected to the Mac. You can configure the sensors and display data to suit your needs.

The M6 PRO benefits from several advanced features:

• It works with the latest digital signal processing, combined with the smartest software available.
• You can receive up to 100 simultaneous data from sensors. This way, you can have a full coverage of data received from sensors to efficiently monitor the trawl.
• You can listen to 6 hydrophones simultaneously. Only data coming from the hydrophone delivering the best signal is interpreted. This way, you do not need an hydrophone selection switch, as often used in older types of receivers.
• Thanks to the numerous hydrophones, you can have a better reception of the sensors.
• You can receive data from standard sensors, net sounders and high-definition sensors at the same time.
• Data received can be displayed on echogram images that you can watch from the wheelhouse.
• The receiver can detect signals received even from a long transmission range.
• There is a large frequency range. This way, you have enough bandwidth to add multiple sensors.
• There are 2 NMEA and 4 NTC entries to receive hydrophones' temperature data.
