How to Select the Interface for Heading Input

When a gyrocompass is connected, the ship's heading appears on the right side of the
screen, in the data display area.
Heading input format can be selected as follows:
1. Place the cursor on the [HDG] box at the top-left of the screen, then press the
right button. The [HDG] context menu appears.
2. Select [HDG SOURCE], then press the left button.
3. Select [AD-10] or [SERIAL] as appropriate, then press the left button.
This refers to the type of connection, [AD-10] is for AD-10 format (FURUNO orig-
inal) connection, [SERIAL] is for serial connections.
4. Close the menu.
Note: The heading sensor must be able follow a minimum ROT of 20° per second.
Heading sensors with a lesser capability may degrade the performance of echo aver-
aging, trails and TT. The data refresh rate should also be as short as possible. If the
refresh rate is too long, the ability to follow courses lessens, thereby affecting the per-
formance of echo averaging, trails and TT.
