Description

1.1

General

The Repeater Compass, Type 133 - 560, shows the heading from a compass. The
heading is indicated by a 360° and a 10° card.
Figure 1-1
The Repeater Compass is designed to indicate heading from magnetic, gyro or
satellite compasses (or Transmitting Heading Devices – THDs) via a serial interface
(Course BUS*, NMEA or a CAN Bus*).
It can be configured to indicate the selected heading (from a heading management
system or INS) or to indicate one heading source (gyro/satellite or magnetic compass)
permanently and independent from the selected heading source if Course Bus is
used.
In addition the Steering Repeater can be configured to indicate alerts (acoustical and
optical) if connected via Course Bus to a Standard 22 Compact.
Other useful features are a 180° heading offset (e.g. for aft workstation) or a central
dimming function (if part of a Standard 22 Compass system or NautoSteer AS) via
CAN Bus or via NMEA.
Each application has to be configured according to section 2.8.
