With its advanced built-in program, the MX 1102 is so easy to use that it requires only a few hours of operator fa- miliarization. The receiver, mi- croprocessor, and CRT data dis- play are housed in a single table- top, bulkhead, or overhead mount- ed unit that is no larger than a portable TV set. A small antenna/ preamp mounts above deck in any relatively unobstructed location. Navigation information is clear- ly displayed in digital form re- quiring no special charts or man- ual computations. Conventional SatNav data such as latitude, longitude, and Greenwich Mean Time (GMT) is supplemented with such information as distance trav- Fluid Film Gel B Exotic Coatings None to minimum surface preparation Sandblasting required Can be applied to damp surface.

The MX 1102 was the first to have the outstanding feature of programmed tracking. This fea- ture enables the satellite naviga- tion system to distinguish be- tween conflicting satellite signals and to lock only on signals from the satellite offering the best nav- igation fix. The result is about 10 percent more usable fixes, which occur at 40 to 90-minute inter- vals anywhere in the world, 24 hours a day. Between fixes, the system automatically dead-reck- ons and compensates for set and drift. The system self-tests every two hours and, in the event of failure, identifies the easily replaced cir- cuit module responsible for the malfunction. The self-test proce- dure may also be initiated man- ually. Specifications for Class Nav N certification by Det norske Veri- tas have been met in the design and testing of the MX 1102. These include demonstrated accuracy [static accuracy to 0.05 nautical mile (RMS), and underway to 0.1 NM (RMS)], comprehensive en- vironmental testing, routing self- test of all circuits, continuous monitoring of all functions, fail- ure mode identification, and re- liability analysis.
