Type 5500-5000 DCH REMOTE DISPLAY

The Type 5500-5000 DCH Remote Display is required when using control heads other than the Type 5500 DCH in Type 85500-2000 MPC-D and Type 8550-3200 MPC-CP propulsion control systems. The remote display accepts lever position outputs from the control heads and provides the interface with the control boxes.

A dimmable multi-function screen provides display of control and machinery status in imperial or metric units. Four soft buttons and one dedicated station transfer button complete the user interface. Screens can be configured to display the most basic system information or more comprehensive data.

Items for display include: control system displays and alarms, control lever position, transfer status, engine operating parameters available from the engine serial link and shaft rpm (optional). Gear engagement is available for fixed pitch systems and pitch indication is available for controllable pitch systems.
