Simrad NSS12 evo3S Combo Multi-Function Chartplotter/Fishfinder – No HDMI Video Out Port

The Simrad NSS12 evo3S is a 12-inch SolarMAX IPS HybridTouch multifunction display with a 1280 x 800 screen, iMX 8 quad-core processor, 1kW dual-channel CHIRP, Active Imaging, and ForwardScan support. This version does not include radar or a transducer and has no HDMI output port. It is intended for a planned Simrad installation where radar, sonar hardware, and other system components are selected separately.

Key Features

- 12-inch SolarMAX IPS HybridTouch display – Provides a large workspace with touchscreen and physical-control operation.
- 1280 x 800 WXGA resolution – Shows chart, sonar, and system information in a clear 12-inch format.
- iMX 8 high-performance quad-core processor – Provides the processing platform for the NSS12 evo3S system.
- 1kW dual-channel CHIRP, Active Imaging, and ForwardScan – Supports several sonar functions when paired with suitable hardware.
- No HDMI output port – Limits the unit’s ability to send video to an external HDMI display.

Who Is This For?

This model suits coastal cruisers, offshore fishing boats, and larger center consoles that need a 12-inch MFD and plan to build a Simrad network around it. It is a good display platform for buyers who want to choose their own radar and transducer hardware.

It is not ideal for buyers seeking a complete radar or fishfinder bundle. No transducer is included, no radar is listed, and the missing HDMI output rules out a standard external HDMI video-output setup.

Compatibility

Confirmed features include the iMX 8 processor, HybridTouch control, 1kW dual-channel CHIRP, Active Imaging, ForwardScan, and the stated absence of HDMI output. The supplied information does not identify Ethernet, NMEA 2000, NMEA 0183, radar, autopilot, or specific transducer compatibility for this listing. No named incompatible system was provided; verify Simrad network and accessory requirements before installation.

The standard NSS12 evo3S is the flexible display-only alternative to the HALO20+ bundle. It retains the 12-inch HybridTouch screen, iMX 8 processor, and listed sonar functions but leaves radar and transducer choices open. Choose it for a custom Simrad installation where you already have compatible components; choose the bundle if the HALO20+ radar is part of the immediate requirement.
