[DG] [DG11] Can ST2000+ use external Compass?

Hi Elau,
Thnakyou for your feedback,

The point you make about update rate is not really an issue, because the tiller pilot uses the internal compass still for the short term heading information - and here we are referring to updates every few milliseconds, the 2Hz update from the external heading sensor is merely to provide continuity with a long term accurate heading which compensates for the local deviation caused by the outboard motor.

Basically the two compass sources are fused in such a way that it works!

Regards

Derek
