Kongsberg ISIC MD 24″ Marine Display Monitor

Kongsberg ISIC MD 24 marine display monitors. These 24-inch displays are designed for use in demanding maritime environments, providing reliable performance and clear visuals for navigation, automation and control systems.

The Kongsberg ISIC MD 24 (and its successors like the MK2 and MK3) is a high-definition 24-inch marine display monitor manufactured by ISIC A/S (Denmark) specifically for Kongsberg Maritime systems. It is a critical component for displaying Radar, ECDIS, and K-Chief automation data on the bridge or in the engine control room.

Key Features

Dimming Capabilities: Features full-range dimming (0–100%) via front membrane keys or glass touch buttons. This is essential for maintaining night vision on the bridge.

ECDIS Compliance: The monitor is color-calibrated to meet strict international standards for Electronic Chart Display and Information Systems.

Optical Bonding (Optional): Many units feature optical bonding between the LCD and the front glass to prevent internal condensation and improve sunlight readability.

Connectivity: Typically includes standard video inputs such as DVI-I, VGA, and DisplayPort, along with serial ports (RS-232/422/485) for remote dimming control from the system software.

Common Variants

MD 24 MK2/MK3: Updated versions with improved LED backlighting and higher contrast ratios.

DuraMON 24 G-Line: The “G-Line” version features a full glass front with capacitive touch keys, often seen in more modern integrated bridge designs.

MD-224 (Moxa variant): In some newer Kongsberg setups, you may find rebranded Moxa units which serve a similar purpose but use different internal drivers.

Maintenance Note

If you are experiencing a “No Signal” or Black Screen issue:

Check the Power Supply: If the status LED is completely off, the internal AC/DC power module may have failed (a common issue in older units).

Backlight Failure: If you can see an image faintly with a flashlight but the screen is dark, the LED driver or backlight strip is likely at fault.

Control Lock: Sometimes the front panel buttons are “locked” via the OSD (On-Screen Display) menu to prevent accidental dimming; this can be unlocked via a specific key combination (usually holding ‘Menu’ and ‘Select’).
