Advice for Specific Situations
(1) If it is suspected that there is an error in a heading shown by a repeater compass or an autopilot:
Check the settings for the ships speed and latitude for correcting speed-error using command codes 21 and 22. If they are not correct, correct the values.
(See 4.7.1 of this manual.)
Set the ships speed to zero and check that indications on the master compass and repeater
compass are the same. If they are not, align the indications of the repeater compass and
master compass.
(2) If an abnormal sounds can be heard from the master compass:

Continue to operate the gyro system if there are no errors in indications of the master and
repeater compasses.
When there are errors in indications of the master and repeater compasses, use the external azimuth selector switch to set the operation of the system so that the azimuth sensor is
selected to external azimuth.
(See 4.2 of this manual.)

* In either case, replace the gyrosphere as soon as possible.
(3) If you desire to know the gyrosphere running time:

This can be displayed using the command code 13. However, a correct value cannot be obtained
unless the running time was reset when the gyrosphere was replaced.
(4) If you desire to know the phase current of the gyrosphere:

This can be displayed using the command code 15.
(5) If you desire to implement automatic re-startup using the timer:

The timer can be set using the command code 29.
(6) If you desire to reset the gyrosphere running time:

This can be reset using the command code 34.

OVERVIEW
2.1
General
2-1
The CMZ700 Gyrocompass fully conforms to the technical requirements of the IMO resolution A.424 (XI), gyrocompass performance standards, as well as to JIS F9602, Class A standards. The anti-vibration structure has been strengthened and improvement of the followup performance has been achieved, leading to increased rigidity of the gyrocompass in all
types of ships, from small to large.
(1) High Accuracy

High accuracy is achieved because of the following configuration: The gyrosphere, the center of
the gyrocompass, is protected into the container filled with liquid, through the center pin that was
supported as the influence of disturbance is decreased. In addition, two gyro-rotors rotate at a
high speed and work with each other to cancel out errors due to the rolling, pitching and yawing
of a ship.
(2) Ingenious damping mechanism for vibration and shock

The gyrocompass is designed to disperse forces due to vibration and shock by the inclusion of
liquid in the container to support the gyrosphere. In addition, the container is protected from vibration and shock with a diaphragm rubber damper and bellows damper. The diaphragm rubber
dumper has universal joints as a countermeasure against the affect of attitude change due to
rolling, pitching and yawing. This configuration produces excellent resistance against vibration
and shock.
(3) Improvement of Follow-up Performance

A follow-up speed of 30 /s has been realized by reducing the size and weight of the container. This
has made smooth follow-up without delay possible in response to sudden turning as is characteristic with small ships.
(4) Digitalization of Master Compass Heading

The display of the master compass heading has been changed to digital. This increases the ease
of reading a heading.
(5) Digitalization of Repeater Compass Signal

Electromagnetic wave noise is suppressed to a minimum by expressing the repeater compass
signal in a digital form and having the driving circuit for the compass motor on the repeater
compass side.
(6) Automatic Speed-error Correcting Function

Speed-error is corrected automatically by entering the ship's speed signal and latitude signal respectively from the log and GPS or the like. The amount of latitude change in the case where there
is no latitude signal input is estimated from a calculation of the ship's speed and heading. In a
basic system, this function is implemented in C.operation unit.
(7) Functions for Various Displays and Settings

Various types of gyrocompass information can be displayed and set on M.operation unit and
C.Operation unit.
IM80B10M-10E
2-2
<.OVERVIEW>
(8) Preparation of Outputs Corresponding to Every Requirement

In addition to the digital heading signal output for the repeater compass, the stepper heading signal
output, digital signal output (IEC61162-1), analog heading, quadrant, and analog rate of turn signal
output are equipped as standard.
(9) Onboard Battery Drive

Compass running by the onboard battery is available as standard.
(10) Remote Operation

C.operation unit is optionally provided so that the gyrocompass system can be remotely operated.
(11) Built-in Startup Timer

The restart time of the timer can be set from 1 to 99 hours.
(12) Heading Output Using External Azimuth Sensor Signal

Using the heading signal from the external heading sensor (GPS compass, magnet compass, etc.)
signals can be output to external connecting device such as repeater compasses or a radar.

OPERATION
4.1
Startup and Stoppage
4.1.1
Startup
Start up the gyrocompass at least 5 hours before performing normal operation.

After the power switch is turned on, the gyrocompass system is started up at either hot start or cold
start depending on the condition of the gyrosphere.
If the gyro rotor is rotating at a high enough speed to detect the heading, hot start begins, however,
if it is rotating at a speed that is too low to detect the heading, cold start begins.
The rotating status of the gyro rotor is determined by monitoring the phase current.
(1) Hot start

Hot start begins if the value of the phase current immediately after turning on the power is 0.35 A
or less and follow-up of master compass, signal input/output, and indicator lamps are normal.
Phase curent
0.35A
Normal
Time
(2) Cold start

Cold start begins if the value of the phase current immediately after turning on the power is higher
than 0.35 A. The stand-by state continues until the phase current drops and the rate of change in
the phase current drops below a specified level. Normal operation will start when these requirements
are met. During stand-by, functions of master compass automatic aligning and manual aligning
cannot be carried out. After about 2 hours, the heading indication settles and the gyrocompass is
ready for operation.

Data Input Procedure
This section describes the numeric value input procedure using the example of setting the
latitude for speed-error correction.
(1) Command code input

Change to command selection mode by pressing the COMMAND key. 00 is displayed in the
command display and the tens digit (digit to be entered) blinks.
Change the digit to be entered (tens digit/units digit) by pressing the SHIFT key and then
change the numeric value for the digit to be entered (0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8
9 0 ) by pressing the UP key. Carry out these procedures to enter 22 of the command
for setting the latitude for speed-error correction.
The entered value blinks if the ENT key is kept pressed for 2 seconds to enable the operator
to confirm the value. If the ENT key is pressed for another 2 seconds, the entered value is
displayed continuously and the command code 22 is executed.
(2) Latitude input (-70 to +70)

The current set value for the latitude for speed-error
correction is displayed in the data display and its
tens digit blinks (digit to be entered). The figure to
the right shows an example of displaying 00 N.
Change the digit to be entered by pressing the
SHIFT key in the same way as is done for command
code input and then change the numeric value in
the digit to be entered by pressing the UP key.
If a negative value is to be entered, set the digit to be
entered to the most significant digit (tens digit) and
continue to press the UP key. The entered value
changes from 00 10 70 70. 60.
. Since the decimal point after the least significant
digit means minus, 60. shows as 60 S.

Procedures for Operating Repeater Compass
4.8.1
Basic Operation
The repeater compasses receive a serial signal from the master compass, and the compass cards
turn so as to indicate the true heading.
If power is supplied from the master compass, the compass cards turn and zero adjustment is carried out. If this occurs, the run indicator lamp blink. When the pointers align with zero on the compass cards, the run indicator lamp stop blinking and remain lit.
If a heading signal is sent from the master compass using a serial signal, the compass cards turn
and display the same value as that displayed by the master compass.

Procedure for Null Point Adjustment of Repeater

Compass
It is possible to adjust null point by manually when null point detection failure is occurred.
The procedure is as follows:
(1) Push Zero adjustment switch more than 2 seconds.

(The repeater compass card will turn round and stop after 5 seconds.)
At this time Fail indicator lamp shows null point detection failure.
(2) Push Zero adjustment switch. (The repeater compass card will turn round rapidly)
(3) Push Zero adjustment switch when the outer repeater compass card (360 degrees/revolution)
value go below 10 degrees. (Rough adjustment)

The compass card will turn round slowly.
(4) Push Zero adjustment switch when the compass needle agree with the 0 scale of inner repeater compass card.

After about 3 seconds the Fail indicator lamp will be turned off and the repeater compass shows
same heading as master compass heading. (Fine adjustment)
If you failed manual null point adjustment, try again the above procedure.

How to Display the Cause of Master Compass Alarms
If the command code 26 is executed, an error code is displayed in the data display for the cause
of alarm generated and detected in the master compass.
A decimal point is displayed after the least significant digit of the error code. The figure to the right
shows an example in which the backup battery voltage failure is being generated.
An error code without a decimal point means that the error that caused the alarm has already been
rectified, and if the ENT key is kept pressed for 2 seconds it will be reset and the error message
will disappear.
If there was no reason for the generation of the alarm,
then -- is displayed.
In addition, if there is more than one cause for the generation of the alarm, the error code with the smallest
code number is displayed first and the following codes
can be displayed by pressing the UP key. For example,
pressing the UP key may switch the displayed error

Procedure for Aligning Repeater Compass Indication
The repeater compass indication is automatically aligned with the master compass indication when
the power is turned on. In general, no other alignment is required. However, it is advisable to check
the master compass display and the repeater compass indication before departing from a port to
avoid possible accident. If the master compass display and the repeater compass indication match,
alignment of indication is not necessary.
(1) Procedure using the zero adjustment switch

If the repeater compass indication shifts from the master compass display, use the zero adjustment
switch to align the indication. Press this switch for 3 seconds or more. The repeater compass card
turns and the zero of the compass card is aligned with the pointer to correct the shift. Then, the
repeater compass follows up the received value.
(2) Procedure in the case where the zero point photo-sensor fails
If an error due to zero point photo-sensor failure is generated, use the procedure described below
to align the indication.
When an error is generated, the compass card stops.
By pressing the zero adjustment switch with the compass card stopped state, the compass
card begins to revolve the high speed (30 /s).
When the pointer is near the zero point of the compass card, press the zero adjustment
switch.
The speed of the turning compass card decreases (0.5 /s).
At the instant when the pointer aligns with the zero of the compass card, press the zero adjustment switch. The compass card stops turning.
If the zero adjustment switch is not pressed within 5 seconds, the compass follows up the
received value. If it is pressed within 5 seconds, the state of the compass changes returns to
.
* If the switch is not pressed when it is in the turning state of or the compass card stops.
If the zero adjustment switch is pressed when it is stopped, the compass goes to state
and turns at the high speed.

In the data display relative value compensation is indicated by AE, and absolute value compensation is indicated by AH.
Relative value compensation

The error of the observation bearing that was measured by the gyrocompass is entered as the
compensation value.
The gyro heading display indicates the current value of compensation and its tens digit (digit to be
entered) blinks.
Change the digit to be entered by pressing the SHIFT key and then change the numeric value of
the digit to be entered by pressing the UP key to enter the value of error compensation (- 10.0 to
10.0 degrees)
To enter a negative value, set the digit to be entered to the most significant digit (tens digit) and
press the UP key several times.
After entering the value of compensation, the entered value blinks if the ENT key is kept pressed
for 2 seconds to enable the operator to confirm the value. If the ENT key is pressed for another 2
seconds, the entered value is displayed continuously and is set as the final value.
<<Note>>The setting of installation-error by the relative value should be executed, after the last
setting value is returned to zero to prevent the setting mistake.
IM80B10M-10E
6-25
The amount of correction for master compass installation error is determined from the
difference between the compass heading detected by a reading when the master compass
is settled and an accurate true heading obtained through astronomical observation.
Perform these measurements when there is no change in the heading, such as when the
ship is docked.
Example: 0.56 (Value of error compensation)

= 42.56 (true reading through astronomical observation) - 42.00 (compass reading)
Absolute value compensation

If absolute ships heading is obtained by the quay-bearing etc. its heading value is input as compass
heading.
On the display, the gyro heading display indicates container heading + installation error compensating value and the hundreds digit (digit to be entered) blinks.
Change the digit to be entered by pressing the SHIFT key and then change the numeric value of
the digit to be entered by pressing the UP key to enter the compass heading (000.0 to 359.9 degrees).
After entering a heading, the entered value blinks if the ENT key is kept pressed for 2 seconds to
enable the operator to confirm the value. If the ENT key is pressed for another 2 seconds, the
entered value is displayed continuously and is set as the final value.
If installation error exceeds more than 10 degrees, the value for error compensation is limited to
10 degrees. Therefore, adjust the base line of Master compass and execute this compensation
after the deviation between base line of Master compass and the ships fore-and-aft line is less than
10 degrees.
Example: (Setting value) = (ships heading is obtained by the quay-bearing etc.)
Whenever performing error correction, be sure to record the amount of correction in the
maintenance record book.

If the heading data is not obtained due to the cause of the alarm, the heading display indicates "---.-" such as above figure. In this case, we recommend that the available heading
sensor be selected as the output heading.
When the heading sensor is changed from the present output heading to the available heading, the output heading value jumps to the selected heading value. Therefore, steering mode
of autopilot should be change to manual mode if output heading is changed.

If the ENT key is again pressed, the Running display appears showing that automatic alignment
is being carried out. (The master compass starts automatic alignment.)
If automatic alignment finishes normally, the Success display appears. However if it finishes due
to a failure, the Error display appears. If a failure occurs, execute master compass alignment
manually.

Manual Master Compass Alignment
If automatic master compass alignment cannot be executed, it is necessary to adjust the compass
heading to the container heading. There are relative value alignment and absolute value alignment
as the adjustment method.
<<Note>>Please make zero degree the speed error correction value by setting ships speed 0kt by
using code 21 when you execute this adjustment.
(1) Relative value alignment

The error of the observation bearing that was measured by the gyrocompass is entered as the input
value. (Input range : - 180 to + 180)

Input value = (true reading through astronomical observation) - (compass reading)
Easterly : -, Westerly : +
For example, if compass reading is 050.0 and the true reading through astronomical observation
is 020.0, the input value is - 30.
This method may be effective in case of sailing because the standard of absolute heading can be
not obtained.
IM80B10M-10E

(2) Absolute value alignment

By inputting present absolute heading the compass heading is adjusted to the value.

Input value = (true heading)
This method may be effective in the dock, because the standard of absolute heading can be obtained.

Inst. Err.
Relative value correction

The procedure uses the compass heading error as the amount of correction.
Example:
0.56 (Amount of error correction) = 42.56 (true heading through astronomical observation) - 42.00
(compass heading)
Note: When setting the relative value of correction repeatedly, first reset the current setting to zero
in order to avoid setting the wrong value.
The amount of correction for master compass installation error is determined from the
difference between the compass heading detected by a reading when the master compass
is settled and an accurate true heading obtained through astronomical observation.
Perform these measurements when there is no change in the heading, such as when the
ship is docked.
Absolute value correction

If the absolute true heading can be obtained, such as when the ship is docked, set it as the compass heading.
Pressing the COMMAND key returns the operation mode to normal.
Example:
(Input value) = (absolute true heading when the ship is docked)
Whenever performing error correction, be sure to record the amount of correction in the
maintenance record book.

Press the upper and lower arrow keys to select the correction procedure from Rel. (relative) and
Abs. (absolute), or to change the numeric value.
After entering the amount of correction, press the ENT key. All the digits blink for confirmation.
Press the ENT key again. The blinking stops and the correction method and the amount is finally set.
The value for difference correction is limited to 10 degrees, even if a value that exceeds this is

heading is within 10 degrees, before.

Appendix-1 Description of Speed Error and

Speed Error Table
1
Speed Error
The speed error is an error generated when a ship in which a gyrocompass is installed sails a course
other than east or west. Its value is determined depending on the ships speed, course, and latitude.
(It is not related to the kind or type of gyrocompass.)
The north-seeking tendency of a gyrocompass is based on the earths rotation. When a ship sails,
the resultant motion of the ships motion and the earths rotation acts on the north-seeking tendency of the gyro. If the course of the ship deviates towards the north or south, the direction of the
resultant motion deviates north or south and thus an error occurs because the north-seeking force
of the gyro acts perpendicular to this resultant motion. That is, the speed error is the angle of the
difference between this resultant motion and the east-west direction.
Determining Speed Error
: Latitude
K: Speed of the earths rotation at the equator
cos
(About 900 kt)

V: Ships speed (kt)
: Gyrocompass course
: Speed error
In the figure above, AC = V cos = K cos sin

Since is a small value,

sin = (radian) = 1 / 57.3 (unit: degree)
From these equations, = 57.3 V cos / 900 cos

If we assume, for example, that the ship is at the equator ( = 0), the gyrocompass course is N (
= 0), and the ships speed is 30 kt, then

= 57.3 30 / 900 = 1.91 degrees = 1 54
When the value of is between 270 to 90 , the compass indication increases. Therefore, the
ships true course is as shown below.

0 - 1 54 = 358 6
As seen above, if the compass course deviates towards the north, the true course can be obtained
by subtracting the speed error from the compass course, and if the course deviates towards the
south, the true course is obtained by adding the speed error to the compass course.
Next we will describe how to determine the speed error depending on ships speed, course and
latitude, using the following two procedures. The true course can be determined by referring to the
following table and chart.
IM80B10M-10E
A-2
<Appendix>
(1) Determining the speed error using the speed error calibration table (Table-1)
Refer to the speed error calibration table (Table-1) to determine the correction value and then correct the course either by subtracting the correction value if the course has deviated towards the
north or by adding the correction value if the course has deviated towards the south. For example,
assume that the ship is sailing near the latitude of 40 and the course is read at 30 and the speed
at 16 knots (kt). The correction value under these conditions is shown as 1.1 in the table. Since
the ship is sailing north, the true course of the ship is 30 - 1.1 = 28.9 . Similarly, assume that
the ship is sailing near the latitude of 40 and the course is read at 150 and the speed at 16 knots.
In this case, the ship is sailing south, and so the true course is 150 + 1.1 = 151.1 .
(2) Determining the speed error using the speed error calibration chart (Chart-1)
Locate the ships speed V on the horizontal axis.
Draw a vertical straight line from the position of the ships speed and determine the intersection
with the line of gyrocompass course angle where the angle is the deviation towards the
north if the ship is sailing north and towards the south if the ship is sailing south.
Next, draw a straight line that crosses that intersection and is parallel to the horizontal axis,
and determine the intersection with the line of current latitude of the ship.
The speed error can now be read from this second intersection. The speed error thus obtained must
be read as a negative value if the ship is sailing north and positive if the ship is sailing south.
Example:
Assume that the ship is sailing at a speed of 12 knots at the point of north latitude of 40 and the
gyrocompass course reads 320 .
The course of 320 indicates that the course deviates by 40 from the north towards the west.
Draw a vertical straight line from point (a), at 12 knots on the horizontal axis, and determine the
intersection with the line of = 40 , (b). Draw a horizontal straight line that crosses point (b) and
determine another intersection with the line of = 40 , (c). The speed error can now be read from
this second intersection (c), which is 0.77. This gives the true course of the ship as 319.23 .

Appendix-2 Principle of Gyrocompass

1
Gyro
The gyro is supported in a freely rotating manner around its longitudinal axis and transverse axis
by supports and the center of gravity of the gyro and its supports is positioned at the intersection of
both spinning axes, and the gyro is turned at a high speed (Figure 1). The direction of the gyro axes
does not change even if the stand of the gyro is tilted or rotated. This is because the magnitude
and direction of inertia of rotation (angular momentum) are maintained provided that neither friction
nor external forces affect the rotating action. This is a characteristic of a gyro.

Figure 1
Figure 2
Hanging a weight from tip (A) of the spinning axis of the gyro (Figure 2), slightly lowers side (A) and
this affects the spin of the gyro. The weight causes the gyro to spin around the BB axis, which
creates a torque around the transverse axis. This causes the gyro to spin in the direction of the
arrow, which generates a torque around the BB axis that supports the gravitational force of the
weight. This phenomenon is called precession and is another typical characteristic of a gyro. Provided there is no friction at each axis, the gyro angular momentum (moment of inertia rotating
speed), applied torque, and resulting precession speed have the following relations:
(1) Quantitative: Angular momentum precession speed = torque
(2) Direction: Vectors are shown in Figure 3.
IM80B10M-10E
A-6
<Appendix>
North-seeking Tendency of Gyrocompass
Suppose that a weight is hanging under the supports as shown in Figure 3 such that the center of
gravity for the entire gyro system, supports and weight is positioned directly under the intersection
of two axes. If friction on both longitudinal and transverse supports is negligible at this time, the end
of the longitudinal axis A oscillates up and down and right and left in an elliptical orbit due to the
gravitational force and spinning action of the earth.
The spin of the ellipse orientates around north. By attaching an adequate damping device, the
amplitude of oscillation gradually decreases and the longitudinal axis stabilizes in the northern
orientation. This is the gyrocompass. This north-seeking tendency is further detailed below.
Figure 4 shows the earths spin. The components of the angular velocity of the spin, , at point p
on latitude can be expressed as:
sin (spinning motion around the vertical axis)
cos (tilting motion along the horizontal meridian)

Equator
If the gyro shown in Figure 3 is placed on point p with

A facing east and B facing west and with the A-B axis
horizontal (Figure 5), the orientation of the gyro remains the same. However, since the inclination at this
point on the earth remains the same as time elapses,
the end-point A of the A-B axis rises and the end-point
B goes down relative to the horizontal plane. Then,
precession is carried out as the weight generates a
torque to return the A-B axis to the horizontal position.
When end-point A arrives at the meridian with the gyro
tilted, the tilt is at its maximum and end-point A continues to turn towards the west. When end-point A enters
on the west side of the meridian, the inclination starts
acting so as to lower A. The torque caused by the
weight gradually decreases and precession stops
when end-point A reaches the west end. Then, likewise, end-point A goes down and begins pointing towards north. In such a manner, the orientation of the
gyro spins around with north at its center in an elliptical
motion as shown in Figure 6.

A-7
In a gyrocompass, this elliptical motion of the gyro is reduced and the orientation of the gyro stops
at north. When the gyro axis is aligned with the meridian, end-point A stabilizes along the horizontal plane; however, when end-point A deviates either to the east or to the west, it lowers or rises
away from the horizontal plane and starts moving towards north due to precession.
When the gyro axis is stable in a northern orientation, the precession force offsets the component,
cos (spinning motion), of the earths spin.
The above describes the north-seeking principle. However, in reality, a gyro experiences rolling
and pitching and other undesired influences. A single gyro cannot offset all these influences, and
hence two gyros are linked together by a special mechanism to actively prevent rolling and pitching
errors. This is performed by causing precession in each gyro as soon as the gyros are affected by
an external force and thus canceling the external force just as with the aforementioned occurrence
of a force offsetting the gravitational force of a weight. In this case, the resultant angular momentum
of two gyros and the north-seeking tendency remain unchanged. Since the north-seeking force of
a gyro is very small, the design of the gyro must be such that the frictions in the longitudinal and
transverse axes are comparatively negligible, so as not to affect the north-seeking tendency.

Gyrocompass Errors
Speed Error
Refer to Appendix-1, Description of Speed Error and Speed Error Table.
3.2
Acceleration Error
If there is a change in ships speed or course, a torque occurs on the gyrosphere because the
center of gravity of the gyrosphere falls below the center of buoyancy. This causes an error in the
north-seeking reading of the gyrosphere. This error varies with the position of the center of gravity
while the speed error also varies with the changes in the ships course and speed. These errors in
the reading can offset each other by adjustment of the position of the center of gravity. The optimum
design of the center of gravity of the gyrosphere in the CMZ700 prevents the acceleration error from
occurring. (As a result, the oscillation cycle of a gyrosphere when the damper is removed is about
85 minutes.)
3.3
Rolling and Pitching Error

If the gyrosphere is continuously subjected to vibration from the ships rolling and pitching and if the
vibration cycles along the east-west axis and north-south axis of the gyrosphere greatly differ, this
difference of vibration cycle between two axes causes an error. To compensate for this, two gyros
are provided to reduce the differences between the vibration cycles along the north-south axis and
east-west axis, thus preventing the rolling and pitching error. In addition, a damper mounted to the
suspending mechanism damps vibration so as to gain stable reading.
