Garmin MSC™ 10 Marine Satellite Compass
KNOW EXACTLY WHERE YOU'RE HEADED
Get reliable, accurate heading information with the easy-to-install GPS-based MSC 10 marine satellite compass.
- Accuracy comes easy when you’ve got a multi-band GNSS receiver on board.
- Faster updates. More detailed tracking.
- Rough waters got you worried? MSC 10 delivers pitch, roll and heave info, too.
- If other onboard systems need a heading sensor, we’ve got you covered.
HEAD OUT CONFIDENTLY
- MULTI-BAND GNSS AND MULTI-CONSTELLATION: The multi-band GPS (L1 and L5 GPS) and multi-constellation (GPS, Galileo, GLONASS and BeiDou) receiver delivers precise positioning1.
- ACCURATE HEADING DATA: Multiple receivers deliver heading accuracy within 2 degrees. Because it uses satellite signals, you don’t have to worry about magnetic interference.
- BOAT HEAVE AND MORE: Get reliable, accurate boat heave, pitch and roll information — even in rough waters.
- PRIMARY SENSOR ACROSS MULTIPLE SYSTEMS: You can use MSC 10 as the primary sensor for autopilots and other onboard systems that need accurate heading information.
- BUILT-IN ATTITUDE HEADING REFERENCE SYSTEM (AHRS): With a fully integrated attitude and heading reference system for better GPS heading at all speeds, including pitching in rough seas, taking sharp turns or standing still.
- NMEA 2000® NETWORK COMPATIBLE: Get heading, pitch, heel and heave information delivered straight to your compatible Garmin chartplotter via the NMEA 2000 network.
BUILT FOR A BETTER BOATING EXPERIENCE
- EASY TO INSTALL: This compact device is simple to install and easily integrates into your Garmin marine ecosystem.
- 10 HZ UPDATE RATE: Get better, more detailed tracking information, thanks to the 10 Hz position update rate.
- BACKUP HEADING SENSOR: In the extremely rare case that you lose satellite signal, MSC 10 will seamlessly transition from GPS-based to magnetometer-based heading2.
