Koden KGC-222

Discontinued. Replacement: ComNav G2

The Koden KGC-222 is a satellite compass designed to receive and display information about a ship's course and position, including speed relative to the bottom (SOG), course relative to the bottom (COG), turning speed (ROT), and coordinates (latitude/longitude). The KGC-222 kit includes a display, a GPS antenna, a 15-meter antenna cable, power cables and an installation kit. As an additional device, you can use the universal digital repeater MTRD-104, which displays data in NMEA 0183 format.

The MTRD-104 repeater displays data on a graphical LCD display in the form of graphs, analog instruments or digital values, allowing up to four types of data to be displayed simultaneously on one screen. The user can customize five 'virtual' screens to suit their needs.

Advantages of the Koden KGC-222 satellite compass:

• Course accuracy: The RMS value of the course accuracy is 1 due to the unique KODEN phase measurement technology.
• Quick Start: Information about the course is available one minute after switching on.
• Full data set: In addition to the course, the device displays the coordinates and speed of the vessel.
• Maintenance-free: The equipment does not require periodic inspections and maintenance.
