Page 6: Introduction
It is a complete GPS compass and position system in a single enclosure that connects via a standard NMEA 2000 cable. With NMEA 2000 support and ease of installation, the HS60 is the perfect solution for marine-based applications. The HS60 is an integrated system that houses the following: •... -

Page 8: Operation
Receiver performance The HS60 works by finding four or more GPS satellites in the visible sky. It uses information from the satellites to compute a position within 3 m. Since there is some error in the GPS data calculations, the HS60 also tracks a differential correction. -
Page 9: Hs60 Overview
HS60 will result in position accuracies of 3 m 95% of the time. In order to improve position quality to bet- ter than 1.0 m 95%, the HS60 is able to use differential corrections received through the internal SBAS demodulator. - Page 10 This allows for a steady heading solution beyond the volume associated with just a fixed antenna separation. This is because the HS60 knows the approximate inclination of the secondary antenna with respect to the primary antenna. The search space defined by the tilt sensor will be reduced to a horizontal ring on the sphere’s surface by reducing the search volume.

GPS loss for either antenna. If the outage lasts longer than three minutes, the gyro will have drifted too far and the HS60 begins outputting null fields in the heading output messages. There is no user control over the timeout period of the gyro. - Page 12 Increasing the time constant increases the level of speed measure- ment smoothing. Watchdog The watchdog is a timer that is controlled by the software that monitors if the heading is lost. The watchdog software is compliant with IEC 60945. 12 | Operation | HS60 GPS Compass User Guide...

Page 18: Installation
When considering where to mount the HS60, consider the following GPS reception recommendations: • Ensure there is a clear view of the sky available to the HS60 so the GPS and SBAS satellites are not masked by obstructions that may reduce system performance. - Page 19 Handheld VHF radios may not provide suitable filtering and may interfere with the HS60’s operation if too close. Before installing the HS60 use the following diagram to ensure there are no nearby devices that may cause VHF interference. VHF antenna 1.5 m radius at...

Page 20: Mounting Orientation
This provides a true heading. In this orientation: • If you use a gyrocompass, you can enter a heading bias in the HS60 to calibrate the physical heading to the true heading of the vessel. •... - Page 21 Recessed arrow located on bottom of enclosure Recommended orientation and resulting signs of HPR values Recessed arrow located on bottom of enclosure Forward motion Alternate orientation and resulting signs of HPR valaues | 21 Installation | HS60 GPS Compass User Guide...

Page 24: Flush Mount
Improperly installed cable near machinery can be dangerous. Flush mount The bottom of the HS60 contains two holes for flush mounting the unit to a flat surface (see below). The flat surface may be something you fabricate per your installation, an off-the-shelf item (such as a radar mounting plate), or an existing surface on your vessel. - Page 25 Place the HS60 over the mounting holes and insert the mounting screws through the top of the HS60 and through the mounting surface. Use two M6 washers and M6 nuts to secure the HS60 to the mounting plate (washers and nuts not included).

Rotate the cable ring clockwise until it is secured firmly to the unit (hand- tighten). Powering and connecting to the HS60 Power considerations For best performance, use clean and continuous power. The HS60 power supply features reverse polarity protection but will not oper- ate with reverse polarity. See Power specifications, chapter 5. - Page 29 CAN HI CAN LOW NMEA 2000 Port The HS60 uses proprietary NMEA 2000 PGN for receiver configura- tion.
