Compass Type - Nera Saturn BM Marine Operator's Manual

General
Data on the ship's heading is needed for the antenna autotracking

compass. The direction data is automatically updated as the heading
alters.
Saturn Bm uses the gyro signal for antenna tracking.
When using the Saturn Bm for the first time, the external gyro course
must be entered manually. See
