What is FDX

The Fast Data eXchange, is the protocol that allows the PC to become a fully integrated NX2 instrument when connected to the NX2 Server.
The NX2 Sail performance software is free with all NX2 FDX Servers, bring your PC onboard & use all capabilities that the NX2 system can offer!

 

The Sail Performance software enables you to monitor all data in analogue or digital format, create waypoints and routes, logging all data, remotely control all digital & analog displays, calibrate the transducers with full system setup. You can also activate the NX2 Steer Pilot, set backlight levels on the instruments etc. In short - control the whole NX2 system.
