GPS160 TriNav Sensor with SeaTalk Interface Bundle
The GPS160, a high performance positioning sensor using GPS, Galileo and Glonass satellite systems for exceptional positioning accuracies and redundancies.
TriNav technology allows all three systems to be simultaneously utilized for navigation. The device can also be field programmed for a variety of modes such as single GNSS operation (eg Galileo only) as well as output configurations such as update rate, NMEA sentence structure etc
The GPS160 is available with a NMEA 0183 output (4800, 38400 and 115200 baud programmable) and a USB variant for PC, MAC and Linux. For NMEA 2000 systems, a bundle is available with iKonvert allowing easy and flexible NMEA 2000 installation without the need for cumbersome drop cables.
The GPS160 also support an external MOB switch or device. When activated, it creates a synthesized AIS SART MOB message on the NMEA output which can be interfaced with a local plotter for MOB identification.
The GPS160 supports GPS, Glonass and Galileo positioning. Our TriNav technology is used to combine signals from all three systems to compute the best possible fix accuracy and reliability.
Galileo is the global navigation satellite system (GNSS) that has been developed over the past two decades. It joins the GPS and GLONASS systems and offers mariners a 3rd reliable positioning source. It is planned to be fully operational in 2020.
Features:
The Digital Yacht GPS160 TriNav Sensor with SeaTalk Interface Bundle is a high-performance positioning device designed for advanced marine navigation. Utilizing GPS, Galileo, and Glonass satellite systems, the GPS160 delivers exceptional positioning accuracy and redundancy, ensuring reliable navigation even in challenging environments. TriNav technology simultaneously integrates signals from all three satellite systems to provide a precise fix, typically achieving sub 1-meter accuracy. This makes it an ideal choice for professional and recreational mariners seeking dependable location data. The device supports multiple configuration modes, including dedicated GPS, Glonass, or Galileo operation, allowing users to tailor the system to their specific navigation needs. Its sophisticated anti-spoofing algorithms enhance robustness by rejecting interference and spoofing attempts, ensuring consistent performance. The GPS160 offers versatile output options, including NMEA 0183 (programmable baud rates of 4800, 38400, and 115200), NMEA 2000 (via iKonvert interface for easy installation), and wireless variants compatible with WLN10SM. This flexibility simplifies integration with existing chart plotters and navigation systems. The device also features a user-friendly internal DIP switch setup for data output formats, baud rates, and datum configurations, enabling quick adjustments without complex tools. A notable feature is its external MOB switch input, which, when activated, generates a synthetic AIS MOB message that can be displayed on compatible plotters for swift MOB identification. Designed with professional systems in mind, the GPS160 supports datum sentences such as GBS, GNS, GRS, GSA, GST, and GDT, making it suitable for ECDIS and other advanced navigation platforms. Its compact design includes a standard 14 TPI threaded mount, accommodating puck installation or third-party mounting options. This device operates with ultra-low power consumption at 12V DC, consuming less than 20mA, which is ideal for extended use on vessels. The GPS160 is available with a USB variant for seamless connection to PCs, Macs, and Linux systems, offering maximum flexibility for data logging and configuration. Overall, the Digital Yacht GPS160 TriNav Sensor with SeaTalk Interface Bundle is a robust, versatile, and highly accurate navigation sensor engineered for demanding marine applications, providing mariners with a reliable positioning solution that integrates seamlessly into modern marine navigation systems.
