The comprehensive compass (SSC300) system includes Maretron’s solid state compass, which provides magnetic heading information. This system also includes a GPS antenna/receiver (GPS200) which provides magnetic variation based on the vessel’s position. The magnetic variation is combined with the magnetic heading within the display to provide the user with true heading. This example system includes an 8” touchscreen (TSM800C) for displaying information about the DC system as well as triggering any associated alarms or warnings. Triggered alarms or warnings can be sent off of the vessel using the texting module (SMS100), for example if the boat’s heading is changing (i.e., swinging on the mooring) or the boat is moving (i.e., broken loose from the mooring or stolen). The Internet Protocol Gateway (IPG100) and WiFi router (E2500) allows the information to be viewed wirelessly on the boat using smartphones and tablets and remotely from the shore with an Internet connection.
The following table shows the products included within this example system plus a list of the information or data available for display.
| Product | Description | Available Data List |
| SSC300 | Compass | Monitors magnetic heading, rate of turn and pitch and roll |
| GPS200 | Cabin top GPS | Position, speed over ground, course over ground, time, date, magnetic variation and more |
| TSM800C | Display | 8” Touchscreen displays data in this list and triggers programmable alerts. |
| IPG100 | N2K to ethernet | NMEA 2000 to ethernet gateway |
| E2500 | Wifi router | Allows monitoring wirelessly or wired onboard, or remotely with internet connection |
| SMS100 | Texting module | Sends text messages to one or more phone numbers when any monitored data in this list goes outside programmed limits |
| MCS-25GB | Real Time Cloud Service | Subscription service that allows real time access to the vessel from anywhere in the world with internet connection |
