FOREWORD A Word to PG-1000 Owners Congratulations on your choice of the FURUNO PG-1000 Integrated Heading Sensor. We are confident you will see why the FURUNO name has become synonymous with quality and reliability. For over 50 years Furuno Electric Company has enjoyed an enviable reputation for innovative and dependable marine electronics equipment.
Magnetic or true heading Magnetic Magnetic or true variation data heading Magnetic or true heading Deviation at the PG-1000 can be corrected from the Remote Display DD-2000. 10.0 - 35.0 VDC GPS NAVIGATOR (ex: GP-1610C) CURRENT INDICATOR (ex: CI-1000) Course CSE 88.8...
SPECIFICATIONS OF INTEGRATED HEADING SENSOR The PG-1000 is an electromagnetic compass consisting of a fluxgate and a solid-state rate gyro, supported with advanced software. The heading information is outputted in IEC 61162-1 or NMEA format. For high data speed, AD-10 format (25 ms) is also available. The heading information is used for radar, AIS, ECDIS, automatic steering system and other navaids.
1.2 Selecting Mounting Location The PG-1000 must be indoor on the horizon- tal plane. When selecting a mounting location, keep in mind the following points: • The ambient temperature must be between -15 C and 55 C. • Vibration at the mounting location should be minimal.
For added support, use nuts, bolts and washers. o Secure sufficient clearance around the sensor for maintenance and checking. Figure 7 Mounting the PG-1000 Note: Do not overtighten the screws or bolts; the sensor may crack. Bow mark Material: Brass...
Checking for inclination Make sure that the PG-1000 is mounted hori- zontally by the following checks. 1. Press the [TRUE] and [+] keys more than two seconds. When the inclination is within 5 , STATUS LED lights and TRUE LED blinks.
The magnetic field at the sensor around ship is subjects to change with the ship structure, engins, electronic equipment or any ferrous materials in the vicinity. The PG-1000 contains an automatic correction facility against magnetic field distortion aboard the ship. 1. Do this procedure in a calm water.
The deffault setting is 100 ms. 1. Disconnect the power connector from the sensor. 2. Reattach the connector to the sensor while pressing the [+] key. The PG-1000 is pow- ered on, and the current output interval is shown by the LEDs. AUTO...

The default setting is HDG. 1. Disconnect the power connector from the sensor. 2. Reattach the connector to the sensor while pressing the [-] key. The PG-1000 is pow- ered on, and LED(s) light to show which output sentence(s) is being output. AUTO...
Corrects the heading. Selects output data format; magnetic or true Turns on and off deviation corrections. Figure 18 Front panel of PG-1000 2.2 Turning the Power On/Off Note: You may leave port after the STATUS LED begins lighting (not blinking).
Note 2: Correct distortion whenever you feel error is excessive. 2.4 Selecting Output Data Format The PG-1000 can output heading true or mag- netic. The default setting is magnetic heading in AD-10 format. CAUTION CAUTION Turn off the autopilot before selecting output data format.
3 MAINTENANCE & TROUBLESHOOTING 3.1 Maintenance Regular maintenance is important to maintain intended performance over a long period. Regularly check the following: • Clean the component with a soft cloth. Do not use chemical cleaners; they can remove paint and markings. •...
3.3 Diagnostic test The PG-1000 has a self-test which checks the circuit board and keys for proper operation. LED/KEY/ROM/RAM test 1. Disconnect the power cable from the equip- ment. 2. While pressing the [AUTO] key, reattach the power cable. The test sequence is as below.
4. Disconnect the power cable off from the equipment, and then reattach it. 5. Mount the equipment at the previous posi- tion, referring to page 3. 3.4 Displaying Program Version No. When the equipment is powered on, the pro- gram no., denoted by LEDs in binary notation, is shown about 1 second.
