    XR2 Portable Pilot Unit:
    Precision Navigation for Modern Pilots

    Engineered for the demands of modern vessel navigation and docking, the XR2 delivers ultra-precise low-speed, heading, and Rate of Turn measurements - crucial for safe and effective pilotage.

    Now in its second generation, the XR2 is more compact, lighter, and tougher than ever, while remaining fully wireless for optimal flexibility on board.

    With advanced RTK positioning from GPS, GLONASS, BeiDou, and Galileo, and high-precision RoT sensors, the XR2 ensures exceptional performance where it matters most.

    XR2 employs robust UHF network communication between the XR2 PODs to boost the signal penetration. By this, any problems with system communication because of interference or challenging ship structures is a thing of the past.

    More compact - Still Wireless

    XR2 communicates with the Pilots portable Electronic Chart System via standard wireless technology. The complete system comprises of only three small, light, ruggedized POD units, making it ideal for transportation and operation under various conditions.

    Unique Interpod UHF Network

    XR2 employs robust UHF network communication between the XR2 PODs to boost the signal penetration. By this, any problems with system communication because of interference or challenging ship structures are history.

    Put it in your pocket

    We have listened to every Pilot we have met, and everyone says that size and weight do count.
    We have now reduced the size of nearly 75 % in volume, which means that the size is smaller, the weight is lighter, and the battery life is almost unheard of.

    Operational modes:

    AIS

    Single mode

    For Situational Awareness purposes, you may connect MPU pod to Pilot Plug Connector to display AIS targets along with independent RoT, ship heading and its own AIS position rewrite for short product overview website

    dual-mode
    Position

    Dual mode

    AIS position originated form the ship is doubtful for decision making processes. You would in this mode employ the POS pod to derive independent positioning in addition to the features for Single Mode. RTK positioning is possible.

    triple-mode
    Stand alone

    Triple mode

    In this mode the third pod (HDG) is employed to provide independent heading. By this, the XR2 is fully mobilized to give you 100% ship-independent navigational data with the highest possible quality and reliability on positioning, lateral speeds, SOG, COG heading and RoT
