Description
HS65 GNSS Heading Sensor
The HS65 is an all-in-one GNSS-based heading sensor that combines compass and positioning functionality in a single device, simplifying installation while delivering stable, precise heading information critical to navigation, autopilot control, radar overlay, and overall system performance.
The HS65 replaces the Simrad HS60 and represents an evolution in both performance and installation flexibility, informed by real-world customer and installer feedback.
The Simrad HS65 is a GNSS-based heading sensor that provides accurate, interference-free heading and positioning data for Simrad marine electronics systems. Using satellite-based heading rather than magnetic sensors eliminates interference from onboard electronics and metals.
Features:
- All-in-one heading and position sensor combining a compass and a satellite in a single device
- High-precision performance with less than 2 heading accuracy and under 1 meter position accuracy
- Dead reckoning capability to maintain heading temporarily if the satellite signal is lost
- Seamless integration with Simrad systems via NMEA 2000 connectivity
- Modern low-profile design with improved cable routing and flexible installation options
Why It Was Created
Modern marine systems rely on precise heading data to support accurate navigation, radar overlay, chart alignment, and autopilot performance. The HS65 was developed to deliver a more reliable and simplified heading solution that improves system accuracy and installation flexibility. It provides consistent, satellite-based heading data, simplifies integration with Simrad chartplotters and autopilot systems.
The HS65 provides critical heading and positioning data that supports multiple onboard systems, including:
- Autopilot systems for accurate course keeping
- Radar overlay and MARPA target tracking
- Chart orientation and navigation accuracy
- Overall situational awareness and vessel control
- Designed to integrate seamlessly with Simrad marine electronics systems running on both NOS and NEON OS, including NSO, NSS, and NSX platforms.
The Simrad HS65 GNSS Heading Sensor offers an all-in-one solution for precise heading and positioning crucial to modern marine navigation, autopilot control, and radar overlay systems. Combining a satellite-based compass and position sensor into a compact, low-profile design, the HS65 simplifies installation and enhances system reliability. Its interference-free satellite technology eliminates the magnetic disturbances common with traditional magnetic compasses, providing consistent and accurate heading data even in challenging environments. The device's seamless NMEA 2000 integration ensures compatibility with a wide range of Simrad marine electronics, including NSO, NSS, and NSX series, making it a versatile addition for any vessel requiring high-precision navigation tools.
