N2K Wireless Controller Adds Simrad TP22 & TP32 Support – Replace Your HR22 Remote

N2K Wireless Controller Now Supports Simrad TP22 & TP32 Tiller Pilots

We’re pleased to announce that the N2K Wireless Controller now supports Simrad TP22 and TP32 tiller pilots, bringing modern wireless control to one of the most popular tiller pilot systems ever produced.

For many years, Simrad owners relied on the HR22 handheld remote to control their autopilot away from the cockpit. Unfortunately, the HR22 has been discontinued for some time and can be difficult and expensive to source on the second-hand market.

The N2K Wireless Controller provides a modern alternative, offering all of the key remote-control functions of the HR22 while adding support for smartphones, smartwatches and dedicated wireless remotes.

A Modern Replacement for the HR22

The N2K Wireless Controller connects directly to your vessel’s NMEA 2000 network and allows wireless autopilot control from:

  • Android phones and tablets
  • iPhone and iPad
  • Apple Watch
  • Wear OS smartwatches
  • Garmin watches
  • Nauti-Control RF remotes

Whether you’re adjusting sails, moving forward to handle ground tackle, or simply relaxing elsewhere on board, autopilot control is always within reach.

Supported Pilot Functions

When connected to a Simrad TP22 or TP32, the N2K Wireless Controller supports:

  • +1° course changes
  • -1° course changes
  • +10° course changes
  • -10° course changes
  • Auto mode
  • Standby mode
  • Tack and gybe commands (where supported)

These are the same core functions that sailors traditionally used the HR22 for, now available wirelessly across multiple devices.

Simple Installation

Both the TP22 and TP32 communicate via SimNet, making integration with modern NMEA 2000 networks straightforward.

  1. Connect the N2K Wireless Controller to the NMEA 2000 backbone.
  2. Pair your preferred device or remote.
  3. Select HR22 within the Nauti-Control device settings.

No modifications to the tiller pilot are required.
