KW950E Course Recorder

The KW950-E is a digital heading repeater and course and data recorder that connects to a gyro and GPS. It outputs data to a printer at intervals such as every 6 minutes or when the course changes by 2 degrees. It can also output data on demand. It accepts GPS and heading data inputs and outputs data including time, position, course and speed to a printer or PC. It has an LED display, push button controls, and operates on 10-32V DC power.

COURSE & DATA

RECORDER KW950-E
• Printout on low cost printer
• Digital heading repeater
• Low cost replacement for “course recorders.”
• Connects to a gyro and a GPS.
• Highly reliable, 1000s in service.

The KW950-E is programmed to output a single line of


data at certain intervals. The data is printed on a standard
low cost printer, or to a PC for recording on disk. The
interval between outputs varies according to these rules, in order to minimise paper used, and to provide a good
record of data.
th
a) One line output every 6 minutes on a 6 minute interval. (0, 6, 12 etc. 1/10 hour.) Paper usage on passage
would be typically 4 pages per day.
b) An output if course changes by 2 degrees from the last output. This occurs no faster than at a 10-second
interval. Paper usage during manoeuvring would be typically 3 pages per hour.
c) An output on demand by pressing the keypad AL button.
