Description
GPS160F with Furuno Format Data Output
The GPS160 series of sensors is a high-performance GPS designed for use with chart plotters
Digital Yacht has introduced a specific version of the GPS160 which is a simple replacement for older Furuno plotter and GPS systems. Devices like the Furuno GP32, Navnet, and GPS310/320 utilize a specific format for GPS data and this sensor emulates that for easy compatibility. Some of these older GPS sensors have suffered from technical issues with the GPS rollover changes which can render chart plotter systems useless. The GPS160F provides an economical and reliable solution to these problems.
In conjunction with Furuno UK, Digital Yacht has developed a special version of their popular GPS160 Smart GNSS Sensor TriNav that outputs the older NMEA 0183 sentences and data format that the legacy Furuno systems can read. Now if a Furuno customer has a problem with their existing Furuno GPS (GP310/GP320/GP32/etc.) they can use the GPS160F as a simple drop-in replacement for their failed positioning sensor.
The GPS160F has been tested with a wide variety of legacy Furuno products including; the original NavNet MFDs, NavNet VX2, M1735 Radar, GP7000, and the FCV family of sounders.
Supplied with a 10m cable and user manual with dedicated Furuno interfacing information, the GPS160F will work straight out of the box and just requires a simple 4-wire connection to the existing Furuno system.
Features:
- GPS160 for legacy Furuno systems
- Refined anti-spoofing algorithm for robust performance of position and interference rejection
- Many formats of NMEA data output including datum information users can configure through internal DIP switches
- Ultra-low (<20mA) power consumption at 12V DC
- 10M cable
The Digital Yacht GPS160F is a high-performance GPS sensor designed specifically for use with legacy Furuno chart plotters and navigation systems. Compatible with models such as Furuno GP32, Navnet, and GPS310/320, this device emulates the data format these older systems require, providing an easy and reliable upgrade solution. The GPS160F addresses common issues caused by GPS rollover events, offering a stable and economical alternative to previous GPS sensors that may have become unreliable or obsolete. Its compatibility with Furuno UK and extensive testing with various Furuno products ensure seamless integration, making it an ideal replacement for failed or outdated positioning sensors.
The GPS160F outputs NMEA 0183 sentences in formats that older Furuno systems can interpret, including datum information that can be configured via internal DIP switches. It features a refined anti-spoofing algorithm to enhance position accuracy and interference rejection, ensuring robust performance even in challenging environments. With ultra-low power consumption of less than 20mA at 12V DC, the device is energy-efficient and designed for continuous operation. Supplied with a 10-meter cable and a detailed user manual featuring Furuno interface instructions, the GPS160F is ready to install straight out of the box with a simple four-wire connection to your existing Furuno setup.
This sensor has been tested extensively with a variety of Furuno systems, including NavNet MFDs, NavNet VX2, M1735 Radar, GP7000, and FCV sounders, confirming its compatibility and reliability. Whether replacing a failing GPS unit or upgrading an aging system, the GPS160F provides a dependable and straightforward solution to maintain accurate navigation and chart plotting capabilities.
Features:
