The NAV: RS4 is a central controller for the TAIT Navigator Automation Platform. It manages all aspects of the control system including motion control, cueing, user security, remote assistance, and the emergency stop system. It can interface with many other entertainment systems including lighting, video/projection, audio, CCTV, and SFX. It is typically installed in a central control rack and connected to the machine control cabinets to control the axes.

08 Nav ESA

Nav ESA

ESA is a network-based, master emergency stop controller that is capable of supporting 90 devices and is compliant with the highest safety standards. It is FSOE compliant which reduces the requirement for a separate Estop connection for external devices. Bypass is available for all channels with utilization possible only after internal safety checks are complete. The ESA is also EN 61508 SIL 3 and ISO 13849 PLe compliant with continuous hardware and software validation. Connections are made through the same Ethernet switches and cables as used in Navigator network. The controller can interface with legacy ESE controllers using an optional expansion card.

Nav Point

Nav Point

The NAV: Point allows for the connection of any of the Navigator consoles in the system. It also features an emergency stop button with optional reset and enable buttons. An optional pendant connector allows for a NAV: Estoppendant to be connected for an additional emergency stop or to enable input.

Kinesys Pulse

Kinesys Pulse™ drive with Navigator Infinity™ Panel

The Kinesys Pulse drives offer 4kW or 22kW of powerful, yet simple-to-use, variable-speed drive for precision machine control, whilst facilitating a SIL3 level of system-safety. Kinesys Pulse drives plug & play with the Kinesys Pulse Winch range. Manual controls on the front panel, as standard, provide easy local control of the machinery: the built-in Navigator Infinity panel features a 7” touchscreen displaying diagnostic data and machine status, with the facility to customise the contents for each installation’s requirements. The drives are completely connectorised for easy modular installation, (e.g. cables can be installed separately, in advance, allowing them to be fully tested before the drives even arrive). Pulse is designed to work directly with epiQ™Consoles.
