Color: Black
-
GPS-based heading with AHRS: Built-in attitude and heading reference system (AHRS) that filters and smooths GPS-derived heading for precise, reliable steering at all speeds.
-
Backup heading via magnetometer: Seamless backup heading if GPS signal is lost, noting that magnetometer calibration is required for backup magnetic heading support.
-
Heave data over NMEA 2000: Heave information delivered directly to your chartplotter for accurate sea-state awareness.
-
Multi-band GNSS receiver (L1/L5 GPS): Delivers position accuracy within 1 meter and heading accuracy of 2-degree RMS in dynamic conditions, while benefiting from multiple satellite constellations for faster positioning.
-
Primary sensor for autopilots: Essential heading data for autopilots and other onboard systems that require precise orientation information.
-
10 Hz update rate: High-sensitivity tracking enables responsive navigation and steering.
-
Easy installation: No calibration required unless you choose to enable magnetometer-based heading.
