System Component: The Signal Processor supplied as part of a complete Marine Data Transmitting Heading Device (THD) System.
OVERVIEW
The MD97CSP sensor processor is an electronic processing unit mounted in a waterproof enclosure with a socket connection for the sensor and internal screw terminals for connection of the cable to the MD71THD Control & Display Unit in a Transmitting Heading Device (THD) System. The MD97CSP has no standalone functionality.
The MD97CSP sensor processor unit accepts the signals provided by either the MD52A/B (TMC) Sensor or the MD53A/B (EMC) Sensor and performs the calculations necessary for the basic calibration of the fluxgate sensor and provide a measurement of Magnetic Heading.
Transmitting Heading Device (THD) Systems are becoming increasingly popular as a backup or an alternative to a gyro compass. Marine Data offers a Transmitting Magnetic Compass (TMC) or an Electromagnetic Compass (EMC) solution. The TMC echoes the ship’s magnetic compass in its binnacle; the EMC directly detects the Earth’s magnetic field as a fully independent electromagnetic compass.
