Overview:
The MD68HM from MARINE DATA is a dual-scale NMEA-based Heading Repeater combined with a Heading Monitor. Digital heading data (ship's heading) may be displayed and monitored at any location on a vessel. The ship's heading may be monitored and an alarm given if this exceeds a pre-set bandwidth. When multiple heading sources are available in the heading data (e.g. True and Magnetic), the MD68HM allows the user to select the heading source and indicates which heading source is in current use.
Compact and rugged, the MD68HM offers a heading repeater solution for locations where the available space is limited and may be either bulkhead or panel mounted. Finished in jet black to complement other marine navigation equipment. The MD68HM from MARINE DATA: flexible in application, easy to install and simple to maintain.

Special Features:
• Dual Scale 36:1 precision concentric dial display.
• Integrated Heading Monitor which sets an Alarm when off-course.
• Main and Emergency power supplies; with monitoring of both.
• Dual NMEA inputs for two compasses shared on the same physical connector.
• Automatic selection and prioritisation of NMEA heading data type.
• Prioritisation of heading type: HDT (true), HDG (magnetic + variation), HDM (magnetic).
• Automatic warning of loss of valid heading data and automatic detection of a previously lost heading data type without requiring a reset.
• Local and Remote dimming control.

Applications:
• Repeats the display of a ship's magnetic or gyro compass at any convenient location on a vessel and provides a Heading Monitor facility at that location.
• Provides the heading display in an Electro-magnetic Compass System.
