The Halcyon 2000 Compass has the ability to ‘learn’ the
magnetic effect of the vessel on the compass and
automatically apply deviation correction.
1.3.5 Halcyon Gyro Stabilised Compass
The Halcyon Gyro Stabilised Compass (HGSC) is a high
performance, solid-state compass that provides the best
available heading information through the use of rate gyros
to correct for the motion of your yacht. It also provides high
accuracy Heel and Trim data. It interfaces to h2000 systems
via the Halcyon Gyro Processor that transmits this
information to the B&G Fastnet Network.
The HGSC is an easily calibrated compass that ‘learns’ the
magnetic effects of your vessel on the compass and
automatically applies the deviation correction.
1.3.6 Depth Sensor
This can either be a removable through hull unit, or
moulded in-hull for reduced drag. The depth datum is fully
adjustable and can be set to either the waterline, the bottom
of the keel or from the transducer.
The foregoing sensors combined with the two processor
units provide an integrated set of tactical and performance
data. Additional sensors provide either single inputs, or
improve the accuracy of other functions on the system and
are described in Chapter 5 - Options.
