Monitoring and control
Off-boat vessel monitoring and control is supported via a built-in cellular modem
and the Cortex Monitor App on your phone.
Once the Cortex Hub is installed and operating, data from the Cortex Hub’s
integrated sensors, from external sensors wired into the GPIO port and data from
an NMEA bus will be displayed and controlled on the Cortex Monitor App.

Cortex Hub GPIO sensors and connections
The Cortex Hub can monitor up to three general purpose inputs and an additional
two may be configured either as an input or output.
When connecting GPIO sensors to the Cortex Hub, a Pullup voltage connection is
recommended.
Pullup voltage provides an active high/low voltage reference for the GPIO input
when sensors do not provide sufficient voltage.
NMEA 2000 sensors
When the Cortex Hub is connected to an NMEA 2000 bus, data from applicable
NMEA 2000 and 0183 devices will display on the handset and Onboard App
Instruments screen, and on the Cortex Monitor App.

Cortex Monitor App Introduction
Cortex Monitor is a free Apple iOS and Android app that allows your phone
to monitor and control the sensors of your Cortex Cortex Hub via a cellular
connection.
Cortex Monitor App
Monitor and control your boat when you are ashore provided your Cortex Hub and
phone are within cellular coverage.
Use the Cortex Onboard App or a handset to configure and test GPIO sensors and
relays.
After the inputs and outputs have been configured and tested, download the Cortex
Monitor App onto your device.
Enter your login details and the Cortex Product Serial number or scan the QR code
to activate monitoring for your Cortex Cortex Hub. Once activated it can take a few
minutes for your Cortex Cortex Hub to connect for the first time. You can now view
the status of Cortex Hub sensors on the Monitor app.
