Navitron Heading Repeaters Overview

The document discusses several models of analogue and digital heading repeaters made by Navitron Systems Ltd: the NT920AHR MKII, NT880AHR, and NT990AHR. The NT880AHR and NT990AHR models are GL Type Approved and can display NMEA 0183 heading data from gyro and TMC systems. The NT990HDI and NT925HDI models can convert step/synchro signals from proprietary gyros to NMEA data. The repeaters have interchangeable heads that are self-aligning with NMEA data. They provide visual and audible alarms for failures. Dimensions and mounting information is provided for the different models.

Non Type Approved GL Type Approved GL Type Approved
Navitron Gyro/Mag Heading Repeaters
Systems Ltd Type NT880 AHR & NT990 AHR
Navitron Analogue Heading Repeater types NT880 AHR & NT990 AHR are Approved and
Certificated by Germanischer Lloyd as fully compliant with all aspects of IEC 60945 and may be
configured for single or multihead display of NMEA 0183 Heading Data received from proprietary
transmission elements (Gyro, TMC systems etc.).
In cases involving non NMEA
data sources (proprietary
Gyros etc. with step by step or
synchro type outputs) an
Approved Navitron Heading
Data Interface may also be
employed for conversion of
step/synchro signals to NMEA
Serial Data.

Navitron Heading Data


Interface types NT990 HDI &
NT925 HDI are available for this
purpose.

Suitable for 11 – 40Vdc


operation, all NT880 AHR
Repeater heads are fully
interchangeable (no master or
slave distinction).

The NT990 AHR heads are also


fully interchangeable and both
types may be panel or bracket
mounted.

NT880 AHR

Bezel outline dimensions of 192 X 192mm (NT880 AHR) and 240 X 240mm (NT990 AHR) allow the
units to be mounted in the appropriate DIN size panel cut outs if required.

A single input is necessary (NMEA heading data in at 4K8 or 38K4 baud) for each Repeater type.
Additionally, two power supply inputs (normal and backup) a remote Illumination Control input
and a power failure alarm output facility are available with a total of 5 cable entry glands
provided.
Both Repeater types are self
aligning (no calibration
required) thus both the main
and inner cards will
automatically align with NMEA
0183 data received.

Ships head is simply read from


a 150mm diameter (NT880
AHR) or 180mm dia (NT990
AHR) main rotating card which
is marked in 1° increments with
5° and 10° divisions also
defined. The smaller diameter
inner card rotates at a rate
which is 10 times faster than
the main card to provide a
clear indication of tenths of a
degree. All 3 digit numbers (4.5
or 5.0mm height) are shown at
10° intervals and all scale
markings are white on black
card backgrounds.

NT990 AHR

Variable intensity backlight illumination is controlled from a dimmer pot mounted on the
instrument panel(s) or via an external dimmer, to illuminate all card legends in red or green (link
installation selectable) for night viewing.

Operational integrity is continuously monitored and both Repeater types provide front panel
indications of Heading Data type (True or Mag) and failure status (if appropriate) involving
Alignment, Data and Power failure malfunctions. The visual indications are accompanied by an
audible alarm which may be silenced when acknowledged by Alarm key operation.

NT920AHR MKII Analogue Heading Repeater
Simple to install featuring fully automatic self alignment and self test facilities, the NT920 AHR MKII will accept NMEA
heading transmission direct from proprietary gyros, TMC systems and fluxgate sensors.

The clearly marked rotating card (120mm dial) is backlight illuminated in red or green as selected and is adjustable via a
built in dimmer control.

Of robust weatherproof construction in cast aluminium casings and suitable for single or multihead installation, every unit is
supplied for panel or foot bracket mounting in magnetically hostile internal & external locations including steel enclosed
wheelhouses and tiller flats etc.

NAVITRON SYSTEMS LTD
Off Course Alarm and Heading Indicators
Designed and developed by Navitron Systems Ltd the Off Course
Alarm type NT925OCA is available in two versions.

NT925OCA / 1 is primarily intended for use as an independently


referenced course monitor which, when installed as an independent
system or in conjunction with an appropriate Navitron Autopilot system,
renders the entire configuration compliant with all articles of IMO
Resolution A.342(ix).

Dual Heading input ports are standard and can be connected to accept
magnetic information derived from a Navitron heading sensor coil
attached above or below an existing ships compass and/ or a range of
NMEA 0183 heading sentences derived from proprietary sources such
as GPS compasses and Gyro's etc. Whilst only one heading input is
essential, dual inputs will provide a back up system where either input
maybe chosen as the primary or secondary heading reference.

Standard features include installation programmable Deviation and


Variation correction, NMEA 0183 and Step by Step (installation
Programmable 3, 6,12 and 24 step/degree) heading outputs for use by
proprietary radars etc.

NT925OCA / 2 is designed for use as an independently referenced Off


Course Alarm but includes a Course Comparator Alarm which may be
enabled or disabled during installation as required.

Unlike the heading sensor coil and single NMEA input associated with
the NT925OCA / 1, the NT925OCA / 2 features dual NMEA 0183
heading input ports. Only one input is required for Off Course Alarm
operation whilst dual
inputs are essential for the additional Course Comparator function
which continuously monitors and compares the two sets of NMEA data
Simple to operate, both versions feature: - received. In the event of excessive differences between the data
ƒ 3 digit course set display received (trip level installation programmable 1-20") the alarm is
ƒ 2 digit course error display activated.
ƒ 3o to 30o OCA trip level
ƒ Red backlight illumination A Step by Step (installation programmable 3, 6,12 and 24 step/degree)
ƒ 11 - 40 Vdc power supply output facility is standard

The NT920DHR / 2 Digital Heading Repeater is immediately compatible


with NMEA 0183 heading data and is equipped with an opto isolated
input port for direct connection to proprietary senders (gyro's, GPS
compasses etc.) transmitting the following sentence types.

$XXHDT, $XXHDG, $XXHDM, $XXHCC, $HCHSC.

Ruggedly engineered and suitable for bracket or console mounting in


internal and external locations, the NT920DHR may be installed in
single or multihead configurations as add on repeaters with proprietary
equipment or to provide an independent system with Navitron
equipment such as the NT925OCA 1 Off Course Alarm. Standard
features include a 3 or 4 digit 25mm LCD display of current heading
optimised for night viewing by operator variable red backlight
illumination.
