48 STEP PER DEGREE RETRANSMISSION UNIT
KW948 48 STEP PER DEGREE RETRANSMISSION UNIT The KW948 interface converts serial heading data from a modern gyro to a 48 step per degree signal. Applications include refitting a ship with a new gyro, whilst retaining the existing repeaters. Applicable gyro types are the old C Plath and Anschutz gyros. Typical repeaters take no more than 0.8 amps per step. The KW948 provides high voltage to rotate the repeaters, and then it gives a low (rms) voltage to hold position at a low current. HEADING INPUTS All valid NMEA 0183 heading sentences, which most modern gyros give as standard and GPS heading sensors etc. World Leaders in Marine Interfacing and Retransmission Solutions AMI Marine (UK) Ltd Unit 2 Tower Industrial Estate, Tower Lane, Eastleigh, Southampton, Hampshire, UK SO50 6NZ Tel: +44 (0) 2380 480450 [email protected] [email protected] www.amimarine.net KW948 SPECIFICATION INPUT: NMEA 0183.
