Digital Yacht ZDIGHSC100 - HSC100 Fluxgate Compass Sensor
The Digital Yacht ZDIGHSC100 HSC100 Fluxgate Compass Sensor delivers accurate heading data essential for marine navigation systems. Utilizing fluxgate technology, it provides precise heading information for onboard systems, enabling features such as course up and true motion displays on chart plotters, radar overlay on electronic charts, and radar stabilization for MARPA/ARPA target tracking. Integrated instrument systems can also benefit from compass information for real-time tidal set and drift calculations when interfaced with a log and GPS.
Unlike most low-cost heading sensors that output data at 1Hz, the HSC100 outputs at 10Hz, crucial for MARPA target tracking and accurate radar overlays. The NMEA 2000 version includes the Digital Yacht iKonvert NMEA 2000 gateway, simplifying installation without the need for cumbersome drop cables.
The HSC100T variant provides a "Rate of Turn" feature, offering HDT and ROT messages required by Class A transponders, providing a cost-effective solution for adding heading and rate of turn to Class A transponders for non-mandatory vessels.
