LXNAV E360: a round touchscreen to modernize your dashboard console

LXNAV's E360 screen sets new standards in onboard displays, with its round format, NMEA2000 connectivity and touchscreen interface. Designed for modern boats, it centralizes essential data in a minimal footprint. It will appeal to boat builders and yachtsmen alike, who are looking for simplicity and precision.

The world of marine instrumentation is evolving, driven by advances in connectivity and interfaces. With the LXNAV E360, sailors are witnessing the arrival of a round touchscreen designed for modern yachting, be it neat refits, small electric units or more complex yachts.

An aeronautics-inspired interface for optimum readability

LXNAV applies its expertise in aeronautical instrumentation to the nautical sector, with a clear interface and ergonomics close to those of cockpit screens. The choice of a fully touch-sensitive 102 mm (4") round screen is based on a dual logic: space-saving on consoles and aesthetic integration.

Menu navigation is based on smartphone codes: logical shortcuts, haptic feedback, direct access to essential functions. This simplicity is designed to reduce learning time while guaranteeing maximum efficiency, even during hectic navigation.

Data centralization for a lighter control station

The LXNAV E360 is more than just a display. It combines all the main on-board information on a single screen, in particular via the NMEA2000 protocol: engine speed, temperature, pressure, battery status, tank levels, depth data, and audio control via Fusion systems.

Integrated OpenSeaMap cartography comes as standard, and Navionics charts can be added via microSD card. This all-in-one package is aimed at units where every centimeter of dashboard counts: electric runabouts, motorized tenders, charter units or refit boats with strict design constraints.

Engine monitoring and on-board safety alerts

The display can control one or two engines, whether thermal or electric. By connecting to the NMEA2000 network via its M12 port, it becomes an alert center: excessive temperature, loss of oil pressure, engine error messages or other critical anomalies are clearly displayed. PGNs specific to electric motors are also supported, confirming the product's focus on electrified units.

Compact size, durable materials and easy installation

The E360 is housed in an IPX6-certified aluminum and plastic case. Its external diameter is 134 mm, with a depth of 34 mm (or 45 mm with connectors). This format facilitates integration into existing control panels, with a wide power supply range from 8 to 32 volts DC.

Its weight remains contained at 520 grams, and connectivity includes Wi-Fi, a USB-C port and a microSD input. An optional control wheel allows operation without direct contact with the screen, particularly useful in configurations more exposed to humidity or for gloved users.

A product designed for yachting professionals

The successor to the E350, the E360 retains the lines of its predecessor, while introducing significant technical advances. LXNAV is already working with a number of players in the marine industry, such as EJET Electric, EDYN and VETUS, supplying customizable versions and certified NMEA2000 converters.

This positioning makes it an ideal tool for both integrators and construction sites looking for a compact, aesthetic supervision solution. The advertised retail price is 1,150 ex VAT.
