1 DESCRIPTION
1.1 Design and Main Features
NAVIGAT X Mk 1 / SR-180 Mk 1 is a microprocessor controlled gyrocompass systemwith integrated automatic north speed error correction.
The system is type approved by the German Federal Maritime and HydrographicAgency (BSH) and complies with IMO resolutions A.424 (IX) and A.574 (14) as wellas DNV-W1 and ISO standard 8728.For use in high speed craft, an optimized system is available, which complies withIMO resolution A.821 (19) - HSC.
C. PLATH's unique method of supporting the gyrosphere by means of mere buoy-ancy ensures north stabilization during short power failures. For example, after athree minute loss of power, no more than two degrees of deviation may be expected.Once power has been restored, the gyrocompass will return quickly to the correctheading without requiring the usual settling period. The combined effects of the twinrotors an the liquid damping system virtually eliminate latitude error.
Heading is measured as a 12 bit absolute value by means of a digital shaft encoder.The high-speed follow-up system (> 100°/sec.) ensures extremely accurate meas-urements of heading and rate of turn under all operating conditions.
The system features an integrated TMC-function (magnetic compass transmission)and input interfaces for a second gyrocompass, speed log, position receiver and tworudder angle feedback units.
The gyrocompass provides 12 independent serial data outputs to analogue or digitalrepeaters (including short-circuit-proof 24 VDC repeater power supply), RS 422 andNMEA sensor data outputs, a special NMEA Fast output interface (reduced dataset)and a NMEA Superfast output interface (adjustable baudrate, max 38400 baud). Fur-thermore, two 6 step/° heading outputs, an analogue rate of turn output and an inter-face for the voyage data printer NAVIPRINT are provided.
Integrated monitoring and alarm functions for the supply powers, gyroscope temperaturand current and the follow-up system ensure secure and trouble-free operation of thesystem.
The single unit design with a polyurethane hard foam housing of low weight allowsthe gyrocompass system to be installed on any bridge, from large yachts to the mostcapacious merchant vessels. If required, the integrated control and display unit maybe installed at a remote location from the gyrocompass or an additional remote oper-ating unit installed.
As an option, a special "compass monitor" control unit is available, which providesadditional independent monitoring functions and features a numerical keypad, whichfacilitates the operation of the system.
An optional switch-over unit for twin gyrocompass systems provides for completeredundancy of all in- and output signals and thus ensures the independence of theindividual compasses.

2.2 Operating conditions
Caution:After a cold start, the gyrocompass system requires a settling time of up to threehours before reliable heading data is produced. The gyrocompass system is to be inoperation for at least three hours before leaving harbour. It is recommended that thegyrocompass system be switched off during long docking periods only.
Caution:The permitted ambient temperature range for the operation of the gyrocompass sys-tem is -10 – +55 °C.
At ambient temperatures below 0 C° when the gyrocompass is not in operation, andbelow -10 C° when the gyrocompass is in operation, the gyrosphere container is tobe removed from the compass housing and stored at a place where the ambienttemperature will not fall below 0 °C.
If no storage place is available where the ambient temperature will not fall below 0 °C,the gyrosphere is to be removed from the gyrosphere container to prevent damagecaused by frozen supporting fluid.
The gyrosphere may be removed by personnel of an authorized C. PLATH servicestation only.

Watch Alarm Trigger Output
Activates the watch alarm trigger relais for 100 msec. Actuated by pressing any keyon the control and display unit.
2.3.9 North Speed Error Correction
The NAVIGAT X Mk 1 gyrocompass system provides automatic correction of thenorth speed error. If correction is active, the system permanently calculates the northspeed error from the current speed and position and corrects the gyrocompass head-ing data accordingly.
The north speed error δ arises from the combination of the ship's speed with therotation of the earth. Depending upon the latitude and the vessel's speed and direc-tion, the heading indicated by an uncorrected gyrocompass deviates from the trueheading by the north speed error δ.
The mathematical formula for the north speed error δ is:
sin = –δ904 · cos ϕv · cos hdg.( )
where: v = speed (kts.)ϕ = latitude904 = rotational speed of the earth (kts.)
As a reference, a set of error tables is provided at the back of this manual which givethe north speed error δ of an uncorrected gyrocompass at different headings, speedsand latitudes.

3.1.2 Alarm Relays
The gyrocompass system provides three alarm relays to signal a detected alarmstate to external devices. When the system is energized and no alarm state is de-tected, the alarm relays are attracted , i.e. the relay contacts closed.
If failure occurs in the compass which is currently selected as the heading reference,an alarm is given and relay K6 (power failure and general alarm) released.
If the currently set heading difference threshold is exceeded, an alarm is given andrelay K7 (hdg. diff. alarm) released.
If the currently set max. rate of turn threshold is exceeded, an alarm is given and relayK4 (max. ROT alarm) released.
A released alarm relay will attract again automatically when the cause of the alarm iseliminated.
3.1.3 Error List
The gyrocompass system maintains a list of currently detected errors which is acces-sible via the service setup 2 menu.
!
* $ +
If more than one error is detected, the error causes are indicated alternately in thethird display line. The number of detected errors is displayed in the fourth display line.
Confirmation of an alarm state does not clear the corresponding entry from the errorlist. Entries are cleared automatically from the list when the cause of a given error iseliminated.

4 INSTALLATION AND INITIALIZATION
The NAVIGAT X Mk 1 gyrocompass system comprises a compass housing completewith installed baseplate assembly, masterboard and control and display unit, agyrosphere container, a gyrosphere and an installation and replacement parts kit.
The gyrosphere is contained in a shockproof box, which is packed in a transportcontainer. This transport container is completely suitable for transport by air, sea, railand road.
Caution:The gyrosphere is always to be transported in an original transport container.Do not throw or drop the transport container.The transport container is to be transported in an upright position only.
The gyrosphere may be installed by personnel of an authorized C. PLATH servicestation only.
Until installation, the shockproof box containing the gyrosphere is to be stored in itsoriginal transport container. Upon installation, the gyrosphere is to be removed fromthe transport container in its shockproof box and is to be carried by hand directly tothe place of installation.
Caution:The shockproof box containing the gyrosphere is only to be transported by hand, andis to be handled with extreme care.
Page 4-02
NAVIGAT X MK 1 Mod. 10 / SR-180 MK 1 Mod. 10 0563103-149 MK110ENG.P65
4.1 Installation of the Compass Housing
The compass housing is to be attached to a level surface, e.g. a floor or console bymeans of six M10 bolts or welding studs (to be supplied by the shipyard). At the placeof location of the compass, proper ventilation must be ensured and sufficient spaceprovided for the housing to be opened and maintenance work to be carried out. Theamount of space required, the attachment points and the position of the cable inletsare shown in the dimension drawing at the back of this manual.
In the horizontal plane, the compass may be installed at any angle with respect to thevessel's longitudinal axis. Alignment error (i.e. the angle between the compass' andthe vessel's longitudinal axis) is corrected electronically by setting the alignment er-ror correction value in the service setup 1 (see 4.4.2).
4.2 Electrical Connections
4.2.1 The Connection Diagram
Each gyrocompass system is supplied with an installation-specific connection dia-gram. The connection diagram provides the information needed to fit and connect allcables required by the gyrocompass system.
All cables supplied by the manufacturer carry identification labels, as do all plug con-nectors. These identifications may also be found in the connection diagram.
4.2.2 Connecting the Ship's Cables
Except for the AC power supply cables, all ship's cables are directly connected toterminals on the masterboard.
Insert the ship's cables through the inlets at the sides of the compass housing. Re-move the outer cable covers, draw back the cable shields and fasten the cables withclamps or cable bands to the threaded studs as shown in the dimension drawing atthe back of this manual.
To connect the individual wires, remove the terminal stripsfrom their sockets. After wiring, fasten the strips to the sock-ets with their securing screws.
All wires running inside the housing should be kept as shortas possible. Avoid to lead wires from one side of the housingto the other. The data and signal inputs as well as the statusoutputs and connections to the operating units and the switch-
board are located on the left hand side of the masterboard (TB2 – TB4). The serialdata outputs, the analogue rate of turn output and the repeater power supply connec-tions are located on the right hand side of the masterboard (TB5 – TB7).
Page 4-03
NAVIGAT X MK 1 Mod. 10 / SR-180 MK 1 Mod. 10 0563103-149 MK110ENG.P65
4.3 Installation of the Gyrosphere
Install the gyrosphere as described under 5.3.3.
Note: The gyrosphere may be installed by personnel of an authorized C. PLATHservice station only.
4.4 Basic System Configuration
When the ship's cables have been connected and the gyrosphere installed, the basicsystem configuration is to be carried out by setting the configuration parameters tothe required values in the service setup 1 (see 4.6).
To configure the system:
1) Go to the service setup 1 menu.
2) Select the required system type and heading reference selection mode (see4.6.5). In twin gyrocompass systems, assign a compass ID (see 4.6.9).
3) Select the required data formats for all devices connected to the data inputs(see 4.6.2). Disable unused heading inputs (gyro and/or magnetic hdg. in-puts in system types G, GM, or GG).
4) Select the required data output formats (see 4.6.2).
5) If required, set the parameters for the analogue rate of turn output and therudder angle feedback and ext. status inputs.
Note: Do not change the preset shaft correction angle in the service setup 1. Thealignment error correction may be set to an approximate value at this point.The existing alignment error, however, must be exactly determined and cor-rected as described in the following section.
To round off the configuration:
1) Select the required speed/latitude modes, north speed error correction, voy-age data printer and rate of turn output settings in the manual settings menu.
2) Enter the current date and time in the user setup menu.
Note: In twin gyrocompass systems, the individual compasses must be configuredseparately with identical parameters except for the compass ID.
After configuration, function-check the complete system with all connected equip-ment in operation. Use the test mode in the service setup 1 to check the headingoutput to serial and 6 step/° repeaters and the analogue rate of turn output.
In order to bring the gyrocompass system into a working state, the existing alignmenterror must now be determined and corrected as described in the following section.
If required, correction values for the magnetic compass heading display may be de-termined and entered into the system's calibration table as described under 4.5.
Page 4-04
NAVIGAT X MK 1 Mod. 10 / SR-180 MK 1 Mod. 10 0563103-149 MK110ENG.P65
4.4.1 Alignment Error Correction
In order to obtain correct heading data, the existing alignment error (i.e. the anglebetween the compass' and the vessel's longitudinal axes) must be determined andthe required correction applied. Alignment error is 0° if the sides of the compasshousing run exactly parallel to the vessel's longitudinal axis and the back of the hous-ing points dead ahead. Alignment error correction is carried out electronically by set-ting the required correction value in the service setup 1.
Caution:Before alignment error correction is carried out, the gyrocompass system is to be incontinuous operation for at least 4 hours.
1) Determine the existing alignment error.
Note: If bearing repeaters are used to determine the aligment error, these must beproperly aligned to the vessel's longitudinal axis.
!
,++++correction value = -(alignment error)

vessel's longitudinal axis
2) In the service setup 1, select the align error correction sub-menu.
3) Enter the required correction value. The correction value equals the align-ment error with the sign reversed.
Note: After correction of the alignment error, the compass is to display the vessel'strue heading to an accuracy of at least 0.5°.

4.5 Magnetic Compass Calibration
Because the function of fluxgate sensors and electronic compasses is not exactlylinear, minor deviations may occur between the actual magnetic compass headingand the heading data transmitted by these devices. The gyrocompass system willautomatically correct these deviations if a calibration table has been stored in thesystem's memory and calibration is activated in the user setup.
4.5.1 Determining Correction Values
1) Check that magnetic compass calibration is set to "OFF" in the user setupmenu.
2) Check that the magnetic variation is set correctly in the manual settingsmenu.
3) Select manual steering mode. Compare at regular intervals the differencebetween the actual magnetic compass heading and the magnetic headingdisplayed on the gyrocompass' display. It is recommended to cover the fullcircle in steps of 10° (0°, 10°, ... , 350°).
4) Enter the observed display values in the magnetic compass calibration tableat the back of this manual.
5) Calculate the required correction value for each heading. The correction valueis the offset which must be applied to a given display value in order to obtainthe actual magnetic heading.
e.g.: The actual magnetic heading is 0°. The magnetic heading displayed onthe gyrocompass' display is 0,8°. The required correction value is -0,8°.

Note: According to the system type settings, unused heading data inputsmust be inactivated in the interface configuration.In twin gyrocompass systems, different compass IDs must be assignedto the individual compasses (see 4.6.6).
4.6.6 Alignment Error Correction Value
Settings: -180.0° – +180.0°
Function: Sets the alignment error correction to the required value. Alignmenterror is 0° if the sides of the compass housing are running exactly par-allel to the vessel's longitudinal axis and the back of the housing pointsdead ahead. The required correction value equals the alignment errorwith the sign reversed.
Note: After correction of the alignment error, the gyrocompass is to displaythe angle between the vessel's longitudinal axis and true north to 0.5°.
4.6.7 Shaft Encoder Correction Angle
Settings: -180.0° – +180.0°
Function: Sets the shaft encoder correction to the required value. The shaft en-coder correction angle is set in the factory and must not be changed.
Page 4-11
NAVIGAT X MK 1 Mod. 10 / SR-180 MK 1 Mod. 10 0563103-149 MK110ENG.P65
Only when a complete baseplate assembly is to be exchanged, a newcorrection angle must be entered. Each baseplate carries a label indi-cating the required shaft encoder correction angle.
4.6.8 Ext. Status Input
Settings: Status LOG = log statusStatus HDG +180° = turn heading display by 180°
Function: Selects the function to be activated via the external status input. If setto LOG, the external status input reads the status signal from a pulselog. If set to HDG +180°, the heading display can be turned by 180°using an external selector switch (e.g. for operation in ferries).
4.6.9 Name of Gyro
Settings: gyro ID: 1/2/3
Function: Sets the compass' ID. The ID serves to identify the individual gyrocom-passes in multicompass systems.
4.6.10 Test Mode
Settings: rate of turn: -99.9°/min – +99.9°/minscale factor: 0.1 – 99.9 mV
heading: 0.0 – 359.9°
Function: The test mode serves to test the proper function of the analogue rate ofturn output and of the serial and 6 step/° outputs.
In test mode operation, an output voltage corresponding to the set rateof turn and scale factor is present at the analogue rate of turn output.
After initiation of the test mode, the heading data sent to the serial and6 step/° outputs moves from the actual to the set value with the set rateof turn.
The test mode is activated once the user has set a value in the testmode sub-menu. The test mode is quit by leaving the test mode sub-menu.
Note: The test mode provides a convenient method of setting the scale factorof an analogue rate of turn indicator:Set the rate of turn to a suitable value and adjust the scale factor untilthe rate of turn displayed on the indicator matches the set value.
