Kevin Falvey writes, "In the salon, open the main electrical distribution panel, or MDP. Instead of a confusing array of breakers, lockouts and gauges, you'll find a video touch screen.

...the system's hidden genius: Multiplexing. It cuts down on rigging time, makes troubleshooting easier, and makes the boat considerably lighter (cooper is heavy). You control lights and other devices with touch pads instead of switches. Very cool."

“[Cruisers 390 Sports Coupe ®] The 390's Airpax SCS digital control system uses a two-wire, twisted-pair buss that links all modules together and to a central control module in the engine room and another smaller one at the helm. While all this is undetectable by the helmsman, the system is far simpler and more versatile than the old wiring-harness systems used on most boats. Each output also has an override function, which lets you operate every function manually should there be a system failure. Also included is a fault-detection scheme that alerts you when the individual function is on, if there's an overload, or if there is no current to the function. This is a second-generation of the system Cruisers uses on its 415, 420, 460, 465.”
