Digital Yacht HSC100 Fluxgate Compass Sensor - ZDIGHSC100

Features:

• Accurate fluxgate compass heading data remains a fundamental parameter for marine navigation and the HSC100 uses fluxgate technology to deliver heading data for on board systems. Typical applications include enabling course up and true motion type displays on chart plotters, radar overlay onto electronic charts and stabilisation of radars when used for MARPA/ARPA target tracking. Integrated instrument systems can also benefit from having compass information. Allowing calculation of real time tidal set and drift when interfaced with a log and GPS
• Most low cost heading sensors only output data at 1Hz (once per second) but the HSC100 outputs at 10Hz which is required for MARPA target tracking and accurate radar overlays (Part # ZDIGHSC100)
• The HSC100 with NMEA 2000 version includes the Digital Yacht iKonvert NMEA 2000 gateway. This therefore allows an easy and flexible install of the NMEA 2000 without the need for cumbersome drop cables. It allows an easy and thin 15m cable to be run from the HSC100 to the nearest point on the NMEA 2000 backbone. Thus allowing the iKonvert to connect to it
• Digital Yacht has also released a new "Rate of Turn" version of the HSC100 that outputs the HDT and ROT messages required by a Class A transponder. For non-mandatory vessels, this therefore provides a simple low cost solution for adding heading and rate of turn to Class A transponders (Part # ZDIGHSC100T)
