15Vdc
Reference
voltage may

positive DC
or AC
reference
voltage
Assuming a reference voltage of +15Vdc, the
gradient is 167mVdc per degree up to 90⁰, or
+15Vdc. From 91⁰ to 180⁰ the output diminishes
by 167mVdc per degree, reaching 0Vdc at 180⁰.
For negative angles (CRS pointer left of the lubber
line) the gradient is -167mVdc per degree up to
-90⁰. From -90⁰ to -179⁰ the output diminishes by
167mVdc per degree reaching 0Vdc at 180⁰.

The gradient is
scaled to
11.8Vac
maximum at
90⁰ when using
a 26Vac
reference. It is
linear between
0⁰ and 90⁰.
26Vac
Reference
voltage may
be any AC
reference
voltage
Assuming a reference voltage of 26Vac, the
gradient is 131mVac per degree up to 90⁰, or
11.8Vac. From 91⁰ to 180⁰ the output
diminishes by 131mVac per degree, reaching
0Vac at 180⁰. For negative angles (HDG Bug left
of the lubber line) the gradient is out of phase
with the reference and is 131mVac per degree
up to -90⁰. From -90⁰ to -179⁰ the output
diminishes by 131mVac per degree reaching
0Vdc at 180⁰.
