Digital Yacht GPS160 TriNav Sensor w/NMEA 0183 Output

The GPS160 TriNav Sensor is a cutting-edge marine navigation device that leverages GPS, Galileo, and Glonass satellite systems to deliver exceptional positioning accuracy and reliability. Designed for boaters and maritime professionals, this high-performance sensor ensures precise navigation even in challenging conditions.

Advanced TriNav Technology

The heart of the GPS160 lies in its TriNav technology, which simultaneously utilizes GPS, Galileo, and Glonass satellites. This multi-GNSS approach enhances positioning accuracy and provides robust redundancy, ensuring uninterrupted navigation data. Whether you're sailing, cruising, or engaged in professional marine operations, the GPS160 offers the precision you need.

Flexible Configuration Options

The GPS160 is highly adaptable, allowing field programming for various modes and output configurations. You can configure the device for single GNSS operation, such as using Galileo only, or customize settings like update rate and NMEA sentence structure to suit your specific marine navigation requirements.

Connectivity and Compatibility

Available in multiple variants, the GPS160 accommodates diverse connectivity needs:

• NMEA 0183 Output: Programmable baud rates of 4800, 38400, and 115200.
• USB Option: Compatible with PC, Mac, and Linux systems.
• NMEA 2000 Bundle: Includes the iKonvert interface for seamless NMEA 2000 integration without bulky drop cables.

Additionally, the GPS160 supports an external MOB switch or device, enabling the generation of a “synthesized” AIS SART MOB message on the NMEA output for MOB identification on local plotters.
