The Simrad 000-12308-001 HS60 GPS Compass provides boaters with accurate heading and position data suitable for use with Simrad chartplotters, AIS transponder systems, autopilots, and radar. For applications such as autopilot, where precise heading information is required, the Simrad HS60 provides an all-in-one alternative to the traditional solution of a separate fluxgate compass and GPS receiver.
The HS60 GPS Compass combines a high-speed 10 Hz, SBAS-compatible GPS receiver with integrated gyro and tilt sensors to provide smooth and accurate heading, position, roll, heave, and pitch information to Simrad chartplotters, radar, autopilots, and AIS systems.
