Description

The EmpirBus SP12 switch panel gives the operator a clean, configurable interface to an EmpirBus digital switching system. It provides control inputs through its switches and feeds status information back through individual LED indicators, replacing rows of conventional toggle switches with a single networked panel.

Each button carries two physical switches and three independently controlled status LEDs, so one button can manage an auto/manual function while the centre LED shows whether the load is running. Typical uses include navigation lights, bilge pumps, wipers, modes and interior lighting. User-defined legends with text and symbols label each switch, an integrated buzzer provides key-press feedback and audible alarms, and the panel is backlit with a built-in light sensor that adjusts brightness automatically. This landscape model is supplied without a display and is intended for internal fitting, connecting to the system over NMEA 2000.

How many switches does the SP12 have?
The SP12 provides up to 12x2 programmable switches. Each button has two physical switches and three independently controlled status LEDs.
What can the status LEDs show?
Each button has three LEDs that can show different states. For example, on a bilge pump button the left LED can indicate auto, the right manual, and the centre LED whether the pump is running.
Is the SP12 suitable for outdoor mounting?
The SP12 is rated IP21 and is intended for internal fitting. For exposed positions, the IP67-rated SP8 panel is the better choice.
Does the panel adjust its brightness automatically?
Yes. The SP12 is backlit for dusk and night operation and includes a built-in light sensor that adjusts the backlight automatically, plus an integrated buzzer for feedback and alarms.
