Furuno SC110 Satellite Compass
$5,489.00
Furuno SC110 Satellite Compass is a satellite compass that provides heading and motion data for radar, AIS, sonar, and autopilot integration. It uses Tri-antenna GPS Kinematic + 3-axis rate sensor to deliver stable output without the maintenance demands of a traditional gyrocompass.
Overview Furuno SC110 Satellite Compass
Furuno SC110 Satellite Compass is a satellite compass designed to provide stable heading and motion data without the upkeep of a traditional gyrocompass. According to the source data, it uses Tri-antenna GPS Kinematic + 3-axis rate sensor and delivers Typical 0.5°.
This type of sensor is used to feed radar, AIS, ECDIS, sonar, and autopilot systems with heading, course, and motion information. The source also notes a settling time of 3 to 4 minutes and outputs for connected bridge equipment.
Key Features
- Four display modes: Compass Rose, Steering, Nav Data, Heading Mode
- Technology: Tri-antenna GPS Kinematic + 3-axis rate sensor.
- Heading Accuracy: Typical 0.5°.
- Settling Time: 3 to 4 minutes.
- Display Unit: 4.5-inch backlit Silver Bright LCD.
Applications
Used where stable heading output is needed for radar overlays, AIS presentation, ECDIS, autopilot input, and sonar stabilization. It is relevant for commercial boats, larger cruising vessels, and bridge systems that need more consistent heading data than a magnetic compass can provide.
It can also serve as a primary heading source on non-compulsory vessels or as a backup heading reference in larger installations.

Frequently Asked Questions About Furuno SC110 Satellite Compass
What role does Furuno SC110 Satellite Compass play on board?
Furuno SC110 Satellite Compass is designed to supply heading and motion reference data for connected onboard systems. The stated technology uses Tri-antenna GPS Kinematic + 3-axis rate sensor with heading accuracy of Typical 0.5°, supporting radar, AIS, sonar, and autopilot integration.
How does this unit generate or stabilize heading data?
This satellite compass uses tri-antenna gps kinematic + 3-axis rate sensor to deliver heading and motion data without relying on a traditional magnetic compass alone. The listed settling time of 3 to 4 minutes and output update information such as None show its focus on timely heading reference.
Can this system support radar, sonar, or autopilot integration?
This satellite compass supports NMEA 0183 / IEC 61162-1 / AD-10 (25ms update). That matters when multiple systems need the same heading source for overlay, tracking, or steering functions. The stated display format of 4.5-inch backlit Silver Bright LCD also helps define how information is viewed during normal operation.
What practical benefit does it bring to the operator?
Stable heading data improves the way navigation screens, radar views, and steering systems interpret vessel direction during normal operation. In practice, that can mean clearer overlays, more dependable tracking, and better overall situational awareness.
