6.22.3 Inverted Installation Entry

Normally, the SSC200 is mounted so that the label on the compass is facing up and the NMEA 2000 ® and NMEA 0183 connectors are facing towards the bow of the vessel. A recent version of SSC200 firmware supports mounting the compass upside-down (for instance, to a ceiling), or backwards (with connectors facing towards the stern of the vessel, so that the SSC200 can be mounted to the aft side of a bulkhead). If either of these mounting options is used, the DSM250 can be used to inform the

SSC200 of this fact so that it can adjust heading, rate or turn, pitch, and roll readings to be corrected accordingly.
