Furuno C500 Heading Sensor
Furuno C500 Heading Sensor is an electromagnetic heading sensor that outputs NMEA 0183 and Furuno AD10 data for stabilized radar, true-motion display, and precise plotter tracking.
Description
Overview Furuno C500 Heading Sensor
Furuno C500 Heading Sensor is an electromagnetic sensor designed to supply stable heading data to compatible Furuno and third-party bridge electronics. The source data emphasizes its role in improving true-motion radar performance, plotter tracking, and stabilization for connected navigation systems.
Because it outputs both NMEA 0183 and Furuno AD10 data, the C500 is intended for installations that need flexible heading-data distribution. It is especially useful on vessels where reliable heading input supports radar overlay accuracy, scanning sonar stabilization, or other motion-sensitive functions.
Key Features
- Electromagnetic heading sensing: Provides a stable directional reference for connected marine electronics.
- NMEA 0183 output: Supports integration with a wide range of navigation devices.
- Furuno AD10 output: Maintains compatibility with Furuno bridge systems that use AD10 heading data.
- Supports true-motion radar: Helps radar presentation follow vessel heading more accurately.
- Useful for stabilization tasks: Improves functions such as plotter tracking and scanning sonar stabilization.
Applications
- Radar systems that need heading input for true-motion or radar overlay functions.
- Integrated Furuno bridges that require AD10 and NMEA 0183 heading distribution.
- Vessels using scanning sonar or other systems that benefit from stable directional data.
