SSC200 Firmware Versions. (Download the latest N2KAnalyzer to update your device firmware to the latest version listed below)
3.0.2 (2010-05-28)
- Corrected a problem where a heading of 0° was occasionally mistakenly output when actual heading was 180°. This could be seen by a "flipping" of a course-up display using the SSC200 as a heading reference.
3.0.1 (2010-04-23)
- Increased
maximum heading (PGN 127250) transmission rate from 10Hz (100ms) to 40Hz (25ms)
2.0.11 (2009-03-04)
- Added support for labeling so that the device can easily
be identified with a user-programmable string
2.0.10 (2008-03-03)
- Fixed problem where the device tried to transmit a PGN
before it had acquired a node address
2.0.9 (2007-08-30)
- Corrected a problem with programming of installation
offset
1.10.2, 2.0.2 (2006-01-31)
- Support deviation for calibration ignoring accelerometers
(“No Acc”) for calibration on large vessels
1.10.1, 2.0.1 (2005-10-03)
- Send sequence of headings 0 degrees, 90 degrees, 180
degrees, 270 degrees for one second each after successful magnetic deviation
calibration
1.10.0, 2.0.0 (2005-09-09)
- Added support for OEM product versions
- Updated supported NMEA 2000 protocol version to 1.2
- Added support for inverted and backwards installation
1.9.2 (2005-07-14)
- No user-visible changes (manufacturing improvements)
1.9.1(2005-07-07)
- No user-visible changes (manufacturing improvements)
1.9(2005-05-13)
- Added ability to configure rate of transmission of NMEA
2000 messages
- Added support for 40Hz operation on NMEA 0183
- Added ability to report status of magnetic deviation
- Added ability to perform rate of turn zero offset
calibration
- Correct the automatic selection of magnetic variation
sources when multiple are available
1.8(2005-03-11)
- Added the capability to have NMEA 0183 sentences enabled
or disabled from a DSM200 or DSM250 display
- Added ability to automatically receive magnetic variation
from either NMEA 2000 or NMEA 0183 interfaces
- Fixed a heading error when heading changes between 180 and
179 degrees
- Added the capability to be programmed with a manual
magnetic variation entry for use when no variation data is available from other
devices
- Changed to always use the best quality source of magnetic
variation when multiple sources are available
- Changed to not require a checksum on received NMEA 0183
sentences
- Updated supported NMEA 2000 protocol version to 1.111
- Changed averaging periods on rate of turn and heading
1.7(2005-04-02)
- Modified NMEA 0183 sentences HDG,HDM,HDT to add leading
zero to all heading related fields so that they display in the
"xxx.x" format
- Made the NMEA 0183 sentences VTG and RMC backward
compatible to NMEA0183 2.01 (ignore mode indication field if this field does
not exist)
- Made the NMEA 0183 device identifier programmable
1.6 (2005-01-21)
- Initial public release
