What Is the ATXPerience Control Center?

The 7 inch touchscreen at the helm of every modern ATX Surf Boat.

The ATXPerience Control Center is the 7 inch glass touchscreen that runs the helm on 2020-2026 ATX Surf Boats. It controls your speedometer, cruise, ballast, stereo, vessel settings, and engine data from a single display.

Under the hood it is a Murphy / Enovation PowerView 700, commonly called the PV700. The same display family shows up across a number of late model wake and surf boats, and owners have nicknamed it the 'scallywag' screen. That nickname is not just slang. Open the settings page on the unit and the firmware itself reads ATX_MY20_..._Scally, which is how you can confirm you are looking at this exact display.

ℹ️ Tip: Your part number is printed on a label on the back of the display. Pull the unit and check it before ordering, since the connectors changed across model years.

4 Common ATXPerience Failures

These are the issues we see most often on the PV700.

💧

Delamination

A watery glue bubble spreads from the center of the glass as the optical bond breaks down. This is the most common ATXPerience complaint.

🟦

Peeling Border

The bond lets go around the edges first, leaving a cloudy, peeling frame around the screen like the unit pictured at the top of this guide.

Frozen or Dead Touch

The display still lights up, but taps do nothing in some or all areas. Cruise, ballast, and stereo controls stop responding.

👻

Ghost Touching

Also called phantom touch. The screen selects controls on its own as the digitizer starts to fail.

Why ATXPerience Screens Fail

It comes down to where the boat lives.

The PV700 uses an optically bonded cover glass. A thin layer of adhesive holds the glass, the touch digitizer, and the LCD together as one stack. That bonding is great for sunlight clarity, but the adhesive has been known to break down over several seasons of heat, UV, and constant vibration on the trailer and the water.

As the bond fails, moisture and air work into the layers. That is the watery bubble and the peeling border owners see. When the digitizer layer is affected, you also get the frozen and ghost touch behavior. None of this means the boat is failing. It is the screen, and the screen can be rebuilt.

⚠️ Heads up: Delamination tends to spread. A small bubble at the edge this season often becomes a screen-wide haze the next, so it is worth addressing early while the rest of the unit is still healthy.

How to Remove Your ATXPerience Display

For mail-in repair or a DIY kit install.

  1. 1Turn off the battery or disconnect power at the helm before you start.
  2. 2Remove the trim bezel around the display so you can reach the mounting screws.
  3. 3Remove the screws holding the display to the dash and tilt the unit forward.
  4. 4Disconnect the wiring, including the main 6 pin power and CAN connector and the RCA video plug.
  5. 5Lift the display out. Package it well for mail-in service, or set it on the bench for your DIY kit.
✅ Tip: Take a photo of every connector before you unplug it. Our installation page has model-specific photos for the PV700 if you want a visual reference.

The Result

Back on the water, looking better than new.

A recent 2020 ATX owner sent in the exact unit you see at the top of this guide, peeling border and all. We rebuilt it with our delamination-resistant bond and a brighter LED, tested every function, and shipped it back. Turnaround was 3 days or less.

The owner kept the original ATXPerience interface they were used to, with a clearer, brighter screen that is built to handle the marine environment that took out the first one. No dealer wait, and about half the cost of buying a new unit.
