SC-60 Satellite Compass

Furuno SC-60 Satellite Compass is listed in the source as a marine Gyrocompass within the Position & Heading group. Equipment of this type is typically installed at the bridge or steering-control system, with any remote sensors installed at locations appropriate to heading, position or motion measurement. Its primary duty is providing or controlling the vessel data and steering function associated with the Gyrocompass, and it uses sensor signals, control electronics, ship power and steering or bridge interfaces to produce a stable navigation or heading-control output. Neighboring variants can differ in rating, size, interface, approval basis or arrangement, so the complete model designation and actual nameplate data are important for identification. It normally interfaces with steering control, heading sensors, GNSS or speed inputs where applicable, bridge alarms, data networks and ship power. For any exact capacity, pressure, voltage, tolerance, wear limit or setting not stated in the source, refer to the manufacturer documentation for the exact figure.
