Sensor connection Any sensor connected to the R3016 12U/6X system should meet IMO performance standards and be certified. Failure to do so would make the rest of the system non-compliant. The R3016 control unit supports up to 4 inputs and 2 outputs for sensors. Expansion beyond the supplied 4 inputs and 2 outputs can be achieved by the addition of an SI80 through connection to the control unit’s NMEA 2000 port.
READER Configuration without BAM R3016 12U/6X must be connected to an External Position Fixing System (EPFS), a gyro- compass/heading sensor, and a SDME source via serial line. Ground stabilization requires an external sensor signal capable of providing an input and an indication of own ship’s speed over ground, for example from an EPFS, SDME or use of...
