The ECS/DGPS NAVIGATOR is a precision navigation instrument with a 12-channel parallel processing receiver and advanced navigation packages. This permits real-time position accuracy on a worldwide vector digitized chart database. The system is designed for harsh environments and meets MIL-SPECS for both water and salt environments.

The ECS/DGPS System has the following additional capabilities:

• Position accuracy of 1-3 meters
• Internal AM or FM receivers
• Serial inputs from external devices for display and recording (i.e., Depths, RPM, fuel)
• Tracking software to poll and track users of systems on other vessels or to display targets from other systems
• Communications software and an internal transceiver to permit pole to pole data communications via satellite
• A portable version with internal battery and carrying case for field use (i.e., Pilot Pack, Research Data Collection)
• A SOG accuracy of 0.1 knot
• A COG accuracy of 0.5 degrees
• Customizing of your own charts
• Entering of Notice to Mariners and passage plan directly on chart disk
• Receiver Advanced Integrity Monitoring (RAIM)
