Smart Logic AIS Helps to Make Better Decisions

Collision Avoidance - Cortex M1 is a full Class B SOTDMA transceiver combining GPS AIS and heading data with smart logic to proactively warn of certain collision risks with alarms or voice-annunciated alerts that escalate until acknowledged. AIS vessel information (name bearing and relative position) is continuously provided using AIS information broadcast from other boats.

Anchor Watch - Using actual anchor position from the bow and the Cortex built-in heading sensor smartAIS tracks boat movement and sounds an alarm if the anchor drags or if there is a change in wind speed direction or water depth. While on the boat get alerts on a compatible mobile device via the Cortex Onboard app - or via the Cortex Monitor app when ashore.

Man Overboard - Cortex smartAIS continuously watches for man overboard (MOB) activations sounding an alarm when it detects one. MOB can be manually activated via the Cortex Onboard smart device app or automatically from an AIS MOB beacon "€ which launches a track-back mode for quicker retrieval.

DIrectional Voice Alerts - In the event of a collision alarm Cortex will announce the direction of a collision threat such as "collision alert starboard bow." Instead of an ambiguous beep that other AIS systems provide Cortex tells users what the alert is for and the direction of the threat.

Monitoring And Control - Check boat status receive alerts and control devices with Cortex remote monitoring access using Cortex handsets (sold separately) or Cortex smartphone apps. Directly connect up to 5 external sensors to the system for added monitoring capability.

Cortex Monitor App - Subscribe to a premium Cortex Monitor plan to receive alerts see real-time information about the boat and remotely control devices such as air conditioning lighting refrigeration or ice makers using the Cortex Monitor app on a compatible smartphone.

Cortex Onboard App - While on the boat the Cortex Onboard app can serve as the primary interface with the Cortex M1 hub allowing the monitoring of boat stats receive alerts view instrument data and display AIS screens on a compatible smart device.

Make Intentions Clear - Broadcast built-in heading via AIS transmissions to other vessels so they can more accurately track their closest point of approach and alter course.

Network Connectivity - Cortex can receive and broadcast information over NMEA 0183 and NMEA 2000 networks making it compatible with the majority of modern chartplotters and multi-function displays.

Robust Technology For Harsh Marine Environments

Rugged Durable Design - Water-rated to IPX7 standards the Cortex hub"s thermal polymer housing is heat- and corrosion-resistant "€ so it can be safely mounted nearly anywhere onboard.

Low Power Consumption - Engineered for minimal power consumption at just 500mA the Cortex hub can stay on full-time to keep users informed. It will send alerts even when the MFD is turned off - ideal to conserve power when anchored or on a long voyage.

Galvanic Isolation - Galvanically isolated ports and internal components protect the Cortex hub and connected equipment from electrical shorts and circuit damage in the corrosive marine environment.

Multi-Constellation GNSS - With fast 10Hz GPS updates that keep up with any vessel the vessel position is plotted using multiple global satellite networks. When connectted to other devices using NMEA 2000 or NMEA 0183 all onboard equipment benefits from Cortex"s super-fast GPS capability.

Peace-of-mind Monitoring and Connectivity

Monitor Systems - See status and history of built-in and connected sensors. Monitor bilge security power and other instruments. Set alarms and alarm thresholds review data history and know when the sensor was last active.

Built-in Sensors - GPS heading sensor battery sensor and barometer provide valuable out-of-the-box information on and off the boat as soon as its pluged in and configured.

Networked Sensors - Simply connect to the boat"s NMEA 2000 network to monitor factors such as wind speed and direction or water depth from any other onboard devices.

External Sensors - Imagination is the limit - connect with sensors to monitor bilge activity and level shore power security systems and more (external sensors sold separately).

Cortex Monitor App - Download the Cortex Monitor app from the Apple or Google app store and use a compatible smartphone or tablet to monitor the vessel and receive alerts.

Geo-Fencing - Drawing upon the strength of the Cortex Monitor smart-device app and relying on the information being broadcast from the boat know where the boat is - and if it"s where it should be. Get an alert if it moves outside a designated area.

Control Devices - Connect with the Cortex Monitor app to remotely control devices such as lights air conditioning and ice makers on the boat by connecting them to the Cortex system.

Real-Time Updates - Cortex sends updates to the cloud allowing status information and alerts to be seen directly on a compatible smartphone or tablet.

Monitor Lite - A Monitor Lite subscription is free with Cortex. View twice-daily updates on the Cortex system. See alarms from within the Cortex Monitor app.

Monitor Premium - See real-time updates on the Cortex Monitor app. Receive instant alarm notifications and control onboard devices. Access advanced features like geofence and Anchor Watch. Monitor Premium is available on a monthly or annual subscription.

NMEA Gateway - Cortex can receive and broadcast network data "€ or translate it between NMEA 0183 and NMEA 2000. This makes it compatible with devices on either of those networks "€ plus it can link via built-in Wi-Fi® connectivity. Receive alerts directly on a compatible devices from anywhere onboard.

Connect To Roaming - Connect to a boat network with mobile or satellite data to roam where Cortex cellular data connectivity cannot reach.

Monitoring Made Easy - Register a compatible smartphone or tablet with Cortex Monitor pairing it to the Cortex hub. Then use the Cortex Monitor app to remotely monitor the boat through built-in and connected sensors to the Cortex hub. Upgrade to a Premium subscription to get access to Anchor Watch and receive real-time push notifications.

WEIRD feature - requires a water bottle
Color: Cow, Size: Large
Cute, but buyer beware. Maybe the description said this, but who would think to read for this.... You have to insert an empty bottle (like an old water bottle) for it to make the crinkle noise. There is a velcro spot at the base where you can open it and insert the water bottle for the noise factor and your dogs entertainment. I've yet to do that, but feel like my dog is gonna figure out the velcro and get the bottle out in no time. Seems like a waste of money. I could just give her an empty water bottle without the toy for free.

Best dog toy!
Color: Multicolor/Alligator & Wild Duck, Size: Medium, Color: Multicolor/Alligator & Wild Duck, Size: Medium
Best dog toy! Most dog toys lady maybe a week or less but this one has been going strong for almost 2 months. Both the squeekers still work on both toys i purchased. My vizsla loves ti squeek and carry it around. We added an empty water bottle in the pocket cavity for some extra fun! Yes, we are still on the same water bottle! Fantastic durability.

Shows wear quickly
Color: Multicolor/Sheep & Cow, Size: Medium
These are cute but not holding up as well as I had hoped. Quality is ok and the Velcro has held up great. The fabric just isn’t as good as it could be. They are much larger than expected.

Super Sturdy with hours of fun.
Color: Wild Duck, Hare, Squirrel & Alligator, Size: Small
I got the small ones that you cannot put a water bottle in. These toys have held up way better than expected. I am dog sitting a very rough with toys dog named Chunk. He tears up ever. Single. Toy my dog (Ted) has. I bought new ones just for chunk. These appealed to me with the no stuffing, They were cheaper, and have a squeaker. Everything chunk needed. They arrived on time and I thought I wasted my money. They were super soft, like too soft. They felt flimsy and weak. Like 5 minutes with chunk and they be dead. 2 hours with my dog and they would have a rip. So far 2 of them (I set two out) have lasted the whole weekend. The bunny looks very rough and disgusting, but no rips, the squeakers still work, and no random fluff everywhere. I am going to wash the bunny once chunk leaves. My very careful doggo Ted loves them too. He throws them up in the air and catches them, plays tug of war with them, and no rips. They are super sturdy. He can’t wait until Chunk leaves (chunk is 2 and Ted is 12-13) so he can play with them.

Loved it
Color: Brown/Wild Duck, Size: Large, Color: Brown/Wild Duck, Size: Large
He loved it so much, he destroyed it so we ordered another. I didn't realize that you can stick an empty water bottle inside. Again, the first one didn't last long, but he enjoyed it
