Shanghai UGI-417 Gyro Compass Interface is a small but very reliable unit that is designed to integrate flawlessly with marine automation and navigation systems. Produced by Shanghai Orient Marine, this interface is a critical component of converting gyro compass information into understandable formats for associated systems like autopilots, radar screens, and voyage data recorders (VDR). Constructed with a heavy-duty display module (RT1602C) and running on firmware version V2.0, it provides stable performance under harsh maritime conditions.

Features:

High-Precision Interface: Precisely interprets and transmits heading data from the ship gyro compass to numerous control and monitoring systems.

RT1602C Display: Alphanumeric display for onboard diagnostics and setup.

Firmware Version V2.0: Newest software for increased stability and compatibility with contemporary navigation configurations.

Lightweight and Compact: Weighs just 400 grams, with no compromise on functionality in tight installation spaces.

Robust Design: Designed for constant maritime operation with low maintenance.

Plug-and-Play Installation: Facilitates easy communication with legacy and new gyro compass systems.

Applications:

Marine Navigation Systems: Utilized to transmit heading information to radar, autopilot, and ECDIS systems for accurate route control.

Automation Panels: Installed on bridge consoles for ship automation and navigational data monitoring.

Voyage Data Recorders (VDR): Supplies reliable heading information to the black box of a ship for regulatory and safety reasons.

Shipbuilding Projects: Packed in with new builds for reliable heading information during navigation packages.

Retrofit Upgrades: Upgrades outmoded or failed compass interface units to give improved performance and compatibility.

Designed for accuracy and reliability, the UGI-417 is a critical building block for ships requiring real-time direction accuracy and fault-tolerant operation. Due to its weight of only 400 grams and compact design, it is very simple to mount in tight control panels or bridge systems.
