EM Attitude 3000
The Kongsberg EM Attitude 3000 is a proprietary datagram format created by
Kongsberg Maritime for use with digital motion sensors. It holds roll, pitch, heave
and heading information. The datagram contains a 10-byte message.
Note
The EK80 only accepts one datagram format for motion data. If you choose to use
this format, no other formats are accepted.
Kongsberg Maritime may provide a suitable motion reference unit. Consult your local
dealer or agent for more information.
