The MD77HRB is a NMEA-based Compact Heading Repeater with a clear, easy to read analogue dial display of heading data. The 118mm diameter dial is graduated in 1 degree increments. The MD77HRB is housed in a robust, compact aluminium enclosure fitted with a rotary encoder for controlling the level of background illumination.
When multiple heading sources are available in the heading data (e.g. True and Magnetic) the MD77HRB automatically prioritises and indicates which heading source is in current use. The encoder has a pushbutton facility for an internal self-test.
Compact and rugged, the MD77HRB offers a heading repeater solution for digital heading data (ship’s heading) to be displayed and monitored at any convenient location on a vessel. Suitable for locations where the available space is limited and may be either bulkhead or panel mounted and finished in Jet Black (RAL9005) Fine-texture Powder Coat to complement other marine navigation equipment.
