Digital Yacht ZDIGGPS160F - GPS160
The GPS160 series of sensors is a high-performance GPS designed specifically for use with chart plotters. Digital Yacht introduces a specialized version, the GPS160F, tailored as a direct replacement for older Furuno plotter and GPS systems. Older Furuno devices like the GP32, Navnet, and GPS310/320 use a specific format for GPS data, and the GPS160F emulates that format for seamless compatibility. It addresses technical issues experienced with older GPS sensors due to system roll-over changes, providing an economical and reliable solution. Although it cannot connect directly to a GP32 display, it serves as a drop-in replacement for failed positioning sensors in other Furuno devices, outputting the same data as the GP32 for continued functionality.
In collaboration with Furuno UK, Digital Yacht has developed a special version of their popular GPS160 Smart GNSS Sensor, dubbed "QuadNav," which outputs the older NMEA 0183 sentences and data format readable by legacy Furuno systems. This makes the GPS160F an easy replacement option for customers facing problems with their existing Furuno GPS systems (such as GP310/GP320/GP32, etc.). Extensively tested with a range of legacy Furuno products, including original NavNet MFDs, NavNet VX2, M1735 Radar, GP7000, and the FCV family of sounders, the GPS160F comes with a 10m cable and a new user manual with dedicated Furuno interfacing information, facilitating straightforward installation via a simple 4-wire connection to the existing Furuno system.
