The NMEA to Synchro Converter is capable of converting serial heading data to synchro signals with ratios between 1:1 and 360:1.
Medium to high power synchro signals can be generated when it is connected with a gyro or electronic compass- useful and cost-effective solution for retrofits projects, eg. Refitting a ship with a new gyro whilst retaining the existing repeaters onboard.
Highlights
Cost saving
Useful for retrofit projects, eg. Installation of new gyro
Retaining existing (and older) repeaters that require gyro signals
Flexible
All standard synchro ratios between 1:1 and 360:1 (non-standard ratios available on request)
Selectable Input Baud Rate
Adjustable Phase Output Voltage
High quality
Smooth and precise rotation control, for repeaters and autopilot
IEC 60945 approved
IEC 61162-1/-2 compliant
