Mastervolt EasyView 5 Touch Screen Control Panel

The Mastervolt EasyView 5 is a waterproof 4.5-inch color touchscreen for MasterBus systems, with a 480 by 272-pixel capacitive display.

Being waterproof is what allows it at an exposed helm rather than only in a saloon. Most system displays assume an interior position, and a flybridge or open helm rules them out. This one can go where the boat is actually driven.

Customizable favorite pages group the information that matters on a given boat. A full system display shows everything, which means the reading someone actually wants is several taps away. Grouping it once removes that on every subsequent use.

A built-in logbook records warnings and alarms rather than only showing current state. That is what allows an intermittent fault to be diagnosed, since the alarm that fired at three in the morning is otherwise gone by breakfast. Explore more power system monitoring and control.
