Garmin 9-axis heading sensor

The 9-axis heading sensor is an easy-to-install premium solution that offers fast calibration and excellent heading accuracy.

• Offers excellent heading accuracy, even at slow speeds or when the bow pitches, rolls, or heels.
• Heading accuracy of +/- 2 degrees
• Output of heading and course change at 10 Hz; output of trim and heel at 1 Hz
• Simple two-step calibration
• 9-axis MEMS technology for installation in any orientation away from magnetic interference sources

Scope of delivery:

• 9-axis heading sensor
• NMEA 2000® T-piece
• NMEA 2000 spur line (2 meters)
• documentation

Precise steering course even at slow speeds
With a heading output rate of 10 Hz and an accuracy of +/- 2 degrees, the device ensures that the chart orientation and the boat's heading line correspond to the actual conditions – even at slow speeds. It also supports MARPA tracking and optimizes radar overlay.

Effective in rough seas
You can also rely on the heading information remaining accurate, even in rough seas when the bow pitches and rolls, or when sailing boats are heeled. Heading and course changes are output at 10 Hz, trim and heel at 1 Hz.

Easy assembly and quick calibration
The 9-axis heading sensor connects quickly and easily to NMEA 2000® via plug and play and is precisely calibrated for compatible Garmin chartplotters in two simple steps. A standard calibration is also available for non-Garmin displays. The heading sensor's 9-axis MEMS technology allows for installation in any orientation, away from magnetic interference. All our heading sensors are suitable for bilge installation.
