Digital Yacht NMEA 2000 Starter Kit - ZDIGN2KIT Item # 864864
Description
The Digital Yacht TriNav™ GPS160 NMEA 0183 is a high performance positioning sensor using GPS, Galileo and Glonass satellite systems for exceptional positioning accuracy and redundancy. GPS160 has an NMEA 0183 interface
Features:
- Typical accuracy is better than 1 meter, and data can be set to output at up to 18Hz for smoother plotter track displays
- TriNav software technology also improves positioning vulnerabilities that could occur through spoofing and local interference
- Field programmable for a variety of modes such as single GNSS operation (eg Galileo only) as well as output configurations such as update rate, NMEA sentence structure
- Supports a simple external MOB (man-over-board) switch or device
- When activated, the GPS160 creates a "synthesized" AIS SART MOB message on its NMEA output which can be interfaced with a local plotter for MOB identification. Most modern plotters support this with a clear MOB icon and instant bearing and distance information to navigate to the casualty
- Galileo is a global navigation satellite system (GNSS) that has been developed over the past two decades. It joins the GPS and GLONASS systems and offers mariners a 3rd reliable positioning source
Specifications:
- The GPS160USB variant ships with a 5 meter cable
- Self powered from the USB source (PC, MAC or Linux)
- When installed, a virtual COM port is created on the host PC so navigation programs can receive positioning data
- 72-channel GPS, Glonass and Galileo GNSS positioning receiver
- Typically sub 1 meter accuracy thanks to TriNav™ technology
- Combines all satellite data for optimum accuracy
- Can be configured as dedicated GPS, Glonass or Galileo-only device
- Sophisticated, anti-spoofing algorithm for robust positioning performance and interference rejection
- User / field selectable 4800, 38400 and 115200 baud operation through simple internal DIP switches
- Multiple formats of NMEA data output including datum information user configurable through internal DIP switches
- Up to 18Hz update rate (user selectable)
- Ultra low (<20mA) power consumption at 12V DC
- Professional system (ECDIS) support with datum sentence structure (DTM/GBS/GNS/GRS/GSA/GST)
- Puck installation or fits 3rd party industry standard 1" x 14 TPI threaded mount
