Detailed description

Dissenyat per a la navegació esportiva i d’alta precisió, el Compàs 9X NKE (referència 90-60-534) és un sensor de 9 eixos en miniatura que ofereix una orientació espacial 3D en temps real. Integra dades d’acceleròmetres (±16G), giroscopis (±2000°/s) i magnetòmetres (±0,8Gauss) per proporcionar informació de rumb, balanceig i sotavent amb una resolució angular de 0,01°. Aquest sistema substitueix avantatjosament l’antic compàs Regatta, oferint una solució més performant i més senzilla d’instal·lar.

Integració i rendiment avançat

El Compàs 9X es connecta directament al bus Topline de NKE, creant automàticament sis canals dedicats. També és compatible amb NMEA0183 (versió 4.1) amb una sortida RS232 a 38400 bauds per defecte, transmetent trames HDG i XDR. Aquesta integració permet una freqüència d’emissió de l’actitud de 25 Hz i del rumb magnètic de 10 Hz. Alimentat entre 9 i 30 V DC, el seu consum és inferior a 500 mW, cosa que el fa econòmic en energia. La seva precisió dinàmica arriba als 2° per al rumb magnètic i 1° per al balanceig i el sotavent. Aquestes característiques el situen com una alternativa tècnica a les unitats de mesura inertials (IMU) tradicionals, especialment per a velers de regata.

Funcionalitats clau per a la navegació

Gràcies a la integració al bus Topline, el Compàs 9X millora la precisió de les dades de vent real corregint les mesures per tenir en compte el balanceig del vaixell, que pot falsificar les lectures de l’anemòmetre. En mode pilot, utilitza les dades d’acceleració per afinar el rumb del pilot automàtic. Associat a un Giropilot NKE, optimitza el rendiment i la precisió de la barra. El sensor disposa d’auto-compensació i permet la integració d’una taula de correcció per ajustar el rumb magnètic. El seu xassís estanc IP67 i les seves dimensions compactes (H68 mm x Ø78 mm, 200 g) faciliten la seva instal·lació sobre una mampara vertical, lluny de fonts de pertorbacions magnètiques.

« Analyse technique : le Compas 9X NKE, un capteur inertiel pour la performance »

Le Compas 9X de NKE représente une avancée significative pour les systèmes de navigation à bord, en particulier pour les voiliers de performance. Sa capacité à fournir une orientation 3D complète (cap, gîte, tangage) via une unité 9 axes le distingue des compas fluxgate classiques. Pour les régatiers, l'intégration au bus Topline est un atout majeur : la correction de la gîte sur les données de vent réel permet une analyse beaucoup plus fine et des décisions tactiques plus précises. C'est un point critique qui peut faire la différence en compétition.

L'installation est simplifiée par son format compact et son connecteur direct au bus Topline, ne nécessitant qu'une boîte de connexion bus standard (90-60-121) ou une version avec entrée NMEA (90-60-417). Il est crucial de respecter les préconisations de montage, notamment l'éloignement des masses magnétiques et des sources d'interférences électriques, pour garantir la précision spécifiée. L'auto-compensation intégrée et la possibilité d'utiliser une table de correction sont des fonctionnalités pratiques pour affiner la calibration sur site. Ce compas est un choix stratégique pour ceux qui cherchent à améliorer la performance de leur pilote automatique et la fiabilité de leurs données de vent, notamment en remplacement des générations précédentes de compas NKE comme le Regatta, dont il surpasse les capacités à un coût optimisé et une complexité d'installation réduite.

Frequently Asked Questions

Need help? Contact us

What is the Compass 9X NKE and what are its main functions?

The Compass 9X NKE is a miniature 9-axis sensor designed for high-precision and performance sailing. It provides real-time 3D spatial orientation by integrating accelerometer, gyroscope, and magnetometer data. Its main functions are to measure and transmit the boat's heading, heel, and pitch with high accuracy.

What data is measured by the NKE Compass 9X and with what resolution?

The Compass 9X NKE measures heading, heel, and pitch. It integrates data from accelerometers (±16G), gyrometers (±2000°/s), and magnetometers (±0.8Gauss). The angular resolution for all these measurements is 0.01°.

What is the accuracy of the Compass 9X for magnetic heading, heel, and pitch?

The Compass 9X NKE provides dynamic accuracy of 2° for magnetic heading (after compensation) and 1° for heel and pitch.

Is the Compass 9X NKE a replacement for older compass models?

Yes, the Compass 9X NKE is a more performant and simpler-to-install solution that advantageously replaces the old Regatta compass.

How does the Compass 9X NKE connect to the NKE Topline system?

The Compass 9X NKE connects directly to the NKE Topline bus. For electrical connection, it must be used with a Topline Bus connection box, such as the standard reference 90-60-121 or the Topline bus connection box with NMEA input reference 90-60-417.

Which dedicated channels are created by the Compass 9X on the Topline bus?

Once connected to the Topline bus, the NKE Compass 9X automatically creates six dedicated channels for the following information:

Channel 25: Fast compass (not displayable)Channel 29: Fast heel (not displayable)Channel 43: HeelChannel 61: Magnetic headingChannel 115: PitchChannel 207: Magnetic module

Is the Compass 9X NKE compatible with the NMEA 0183 protocol?

Yes, the NKE Compass 9X is NMEA 0183 compatible (version 4.1). It has an RS232 output preconfigured at 38,400 baud, transmitting HDG and XDR sentences.

What is the data transmission frequency for attitude and magnetic heading?

The Compass 9X NKE transmits attitude data at a rate of 25 Hz and magnetic heading at a rate of 10 Hz.

What are the power supply requirements for the NKE Compass 9X?

The Compass 9X NKE is powered by a DC voltage ranging from 9 to 30VDC. Its power consumption is less than 500mW, making it energy-efficient.

How does the NKE Compass 9X improve the accuracy of true wind data?

Thanks to its integration with the Topline bus, the NKE Compass 9X improves the accuracy of true wind data by correcting measurements to account for the boat's heel. This correction is essential because heel can distort anemometer readings.

What is the role of the Compass 9X NKE in autopilot mode?

In autopilot mode, the Compass 9X NKE uses its acceleration data to refine the autopilot heading, thus contributing to better course-keeping and more accurate navigation.

Can the Compass 9X NKE be paired with an NKE Gyropilot?

Yes, when paired with an NKE Gyropilot, the NKE Compass 9X optimizes helm performance and precision, providing better responsiveness and finer boat control.

What are the dimensions and weight of the NKE Compass 9X?

The Compass 9X NKE has dimensions of H68 mm x Ø78 mm and a weight of 200 g.

What is the waterproof rating of the Compass 9X NKE?

The Compass 9X NKE has an IP67 waterproof rating, meaning it is protected against temporary immersion in water.

What are the operating and storage temperatures for the NKE Compass 9X?

The Compass 9X NKE is designed to operate within a temperature range of -10°C to +50°C. Its recommended storage temperature is -20°C to +60°C.

How to perform self-compensation of the NKE Compass 9X?

To perform the Compass 9X NKE auto-compensation, the boat must make a 360° turn in one direction, followed by another 360° turn in the opposite direction.

What to do if no compass, heel or pitch data appears on NKE displays?

If you do not see compass, heel, or pitch data on your NKE displays, the first step is to carefully check the wiring of your sensor, referring to the electrical installation chapter of the manual.

What to do if the magnetic heading displayed by the Compass 9X differs significantly from that of the ship's compass?

If the displayed magnetic heading differs significantly, you must:

Check the sensor orientation according to the Compass 9X mounting instructions.Ensure no equipment likely to interfere with the Compass 9X is nearby.Check that your boat’s heading compass, used as reference, is not itself disturbed and is properly compensated.Perform an auto-compensation of the Compass 9X following the indicated procedure.

What is the product reference for the NKE Compass 9X?

The product reference for the NKE Compass 9X is 90-60-534.

Is the Compass 9X NKE considered an Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU)?

The Compass 9X NKE is positioned as a technical alternative to traditional inertial measurement units (IMU), particularly for racing sailboats, thanks to its ability to provide precise 3D spatial orientation.
