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 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 portrait model adds a display in the upper-left corner and is intended for internal fitting, connecting to the system over NMEA 2000.
