(2) After startup, do not touch the internal unit of the master compass.
Otherwise the equipment may be damaged or an error generated.

1.2.2 Handling in Cold Districts


Since the master compass container containing the gyro-sphere is filled with supporting liquid, if a
gyrocompass is to be stopped in a cold district where the ambient temperature is −3°C or less it
should therefore be handled as shown below.
(1) In the case where it is stopped for a period of a few days or less:
Wrap the master compass in a blanket or the like to provide heat insulation.
(2) In the case of a prolonged stopping period (a week or more):
Drain the liquid completely.

1.2.3 External Heading Out Put


External heading can use with the master compass′amplifier unit.
Turn on the main power of the master compass (MKM022) in case of using external heading

1.5 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:
①Check the settings for the ship's 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.)
②Set the ship's 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.
(See 4.7.2 of this manual.)

(2) If an abnormal sounds can be heard from the master compass:


①Continue to operate the gyro system if there are no errors in indications of the master and
repeater compasses.
②When there are errors in indications of the master and repeater compasses, use the external
sensor selector switch to set the operation of the system so that the heading sensor is
selected to "external heading."
(See 4.2 of this manual.)
* In either case, replace the gyro-sphere as soon as possible.

(3) If you desire to know the gyro-sphere 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 gyro-sphere was replaced.
(See 4.6.2 of this manual.)

(4) If you desire to know the phase current of the gyro-sphere:


This can be displayed using the command code 15.
(See 4.6.3 of this manual.)

(5) If you desire to implement automatic re-startup using the timer:


The timer can be set using the command code 29.
(See 4.7.4 of this manual.)

(6) If you desire to reset the gyro-sphere running time:


This can be reset using the command code 34.
(See 4.6.2 of this manual.)

2. OVERVIEW
2.1 General
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 follow-up 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 gyro-sphere, 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 gyro-sphere. 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.
(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.

IM80B10M-10E
2-2

(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.

4. 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 gyro-sphere.
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.

4.8 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 zero adjustment LEDs blink. When the pointers align with zero on the
compass cards, the zero adjustment LEDs stop blinking and remain lit.
If a heading signal is sent from the master compass using a serial signal, the compass cards turn and
indicate the true heading.

4.8.2 Connection Box


From master compass To repeater compass

①Zero adjustment switch


Used when there has been a shift in the value indicated by the repeater compass.
②Dimmer
Turning this knob adjusts the illumination of the compass card, and error and zero adjustment LEDs.
③Zero adjustment LED (green)
This LED blinks when zero adjustment is being carried out. Normally it is lit.
④Error LED (red)
This LED is lit or blinks when an error is detected. Normally it is off.

6.2.5 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.
①When an error is generated, the compass card stops.
②By pressing the zero adjustment switch with the compass card stopped state, the compass card
begins to revolve the high speed (30°/s).
③When the pointer is near the zero point of the compass card, press the zero adjustment switch.
④The speed of the turning compass card decreases (0.5°/s).
⑤At the instant when the pointer aligns with the zero of the compass card, press the zero
adjustment switch. The compass card stops turning.
⑥If 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
②.
*If the switch is not pressed when it is in the turning state of ② or ④ the compass card stops.
If the zero adjustment switch is pressed when it is stopped, the compass goes to state ② and
turns at the high speed.

6.3.7 Correcting Master Compass Installation Error


This subsection describes the procedure for correcting the error caused when the gyrocompass is not
installed in such a way that the master compass is precisely aligned with the ship's fore-and-aft line.

If error compensation is to be carried out using key operation, execute the command code "37." (①)
There are two compensation procedures; relative value compensation and absolute value compensation.
Pressing the EXT key for 2 seconds switches between these two procedures.

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

①Relative 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.
If the COMMAND key is pressed, the mode returns to normal.
<<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.

The value of master compass installation error compensation is determined from the difference
between the compass reading of celestial body and the true azimuth obtained through astronomical
observation after the master compass is settled.
Carry out these measurements at a time 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)

IM80B10M-10E
6-24

②Absolute value compensation


If absolute ship’s heading is obtained by the quay-bearing etc. its heading value is input as compass
heading.
On the ② 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 ship's fore-and-aft line is less than ±10 degrees.
If the COMMAND key is pressed, the mode returns to normal.

Example: (Setting value) = (ship’s heading is obtained by the quay-bearing etc.)

Whenever error compensation is carried out using the command code "37," be sure to record the
value of compensation in the maintenance record book.

7.3 Display That Appears When an Alarm is Generated


When an alarm is generated, the alarm lamp lights up and the buzzer stop key blinks with the buzzer
sounds. Pressing the buzzer-stop key stops the buzzer.
The alarm lamp goes out if the alarm is reset, but continues to light up if the alarm continues.

The data display indicates the error code


and the cause of the alarm. (The figure GYRO 1 ---.- GYRO FAILED!
on the right shows an example.) GYRO 2 G1 CODE= 010
If there are two or more alarm causes, EXT >126.0 Gyro Current
they are displayed one by one. HDG FLT
If the command key is pressed, the
screen returns to normal mode.

<<Note>>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.

with the up or down key select either AUTO or MANUAL and press the ENT key.
If AUTO is selected, the automatic ship's speed input becomes valid.
If MANUAL is selected, the tens digit of the ship's speed blinks, allowing for a value between 00 to
99 kt to be entered for the ship's speed by manual.
Press the right or left arrow key to change the place of input and press the up or down arrow key to
change the numeric value.
After entering ship's speed press the ENT key. The input value blinks, signaling the need to
validate the change. If the ENT key is pressed again, blinking stops and the input value is changed.

7.7.3 Setting the Ship’s Position (speed-error correction)


Selecting "22 LAT SET" from the Operate.
MENU and pressing the ENT key switches GYRO 1 >123.4 N 39 ゚

7.7.4 Automatic Master Compass Alignment


Selecting "23 Sync.Auto" from the Operat.
MENU and pressing the ENT key switches GYRO 1 >123.4 Follow Up
the display showing automatic master GYRO 2
compass alignment (as shown in the figure EXT 126.0
on the right). Sync.Auto

"Follow Up" is displayed, signifying that the


master compass is following up the gyro-sphere.
If the ENT key is pressed when in this state, the "Ready" display appears showing standby for
automatic alignment.
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.

7.7.5 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 ship’s speed 0kt
by using code “21” when you execute this adjustment.

①Relative 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.

②Absolute 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.

7.8.7 Correction of the Master Compass Installation Error


This section describes the procedure for correcting the error caused when the gyrocompass is not
installed in such a way that the lubber line of the master compass is precisely aligned parallel with
the ship's fore-and-aft line.

Selecting "37 Inst. Err" from the Maint. GYRO 1 >123.4 Rel. 000.5
MENU and pressing the ENT key switches GYRO 2
to the display showing the current EXT 126.0
correction setting. Inst. Err.
There are two correction procedures:
relative value correction and absolute value
correction. The figure on the right shows the current setting of 0.5°.

(1) 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.

(2) 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.
In the example of display above, press the ENT key, then Rel. (relative value correction) blinks.
Press the right and left arrow keys to change the blinking digit: correction procedure → sign (for
absolute correction only) → the hundreds digit → the tens digit → the ones digit → the first
decimal place
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
entered. Adjust the lubber line of the master compass so that the difference between it and the true
heading is within ±10 degrees, before

Pressing the upper arrow key increases the gain by 10% (max. 200%).
Pressing the lower arrow key decreases the gain by 10% (min. 50%).
After entering the gain value, press the ENT key. All the digits blink for confirmation.
Press the ENT key again. The follow-up gain finally changes to the value you set.

7.8.9 Error Log Display


Up to 100 data entries can be recorded and displayed in the error log.

Selecting "39 Err. LOG" from the Maint.


MENU and pressing the ENT key switches GYRO 1 >123.4 Unit = OP
to the error log display. GYRO 2 Num = 99
EXT 126.0 Code = 080
Press the ENT key again. The OP blinks and Time = 012345
a target unit can be selected.
Press the upper and lower arrow keys to
select the unit from OP (C operation unit) and G1 (master compass), then the ENT key. The latest
error log of the selected unit is displayed.
The second line indicates the error number (00 to 99), the third line the error code, and the fourth
line the time of occurrence.
If the error number is 1 or more, or more than one error has occurred, pressing the lower arrow key
displays the immediately preceding error log, and pressing the upper arrow key displays the
immediately following error log. A larger error number corresponds to a later error.

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 ship's 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 earth's rotation. When a ship sails,
the resultant motion of the ship's motion and the earth's 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.

2 Determining Speed Error


ϕ: Latitude
N′ N
K: Speed of the earth's rotation at the
equator (About 900 kt)
V B
δ θ V: Ship's speed (kt)
θ: Gyrocompass course
C θ δ: Speed error
δ
0 Κcosψ A

In the figure above, AC = Vcosθ = Kcosϕ • sinδ


Since δ is a small value,
sinδ = δ (radian) = 1/57.3δ (unit: degree)
From these equations, δ = 57.3Vcosθ/900 cosϕ
If we assume, for example, that the ship is at the equator (ϕ = 0), the gyrocompass course is N (θ =
0), and the ship's speed is 30 kt, then
δ = 57.3 × 30/900 = 1.91 degrees = 1°54'
When the value of θ is between 270° to 90°, the compass indication increases. Therefore, the
ship's 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 ship's 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

(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)
① Locate the ship's speed V on the horizontal axis.
② Draw a vertical straight line from the position of the ship's speed and determine the intersection
with the line of gyrocompass course angle θ where the angle θ is the deviation towards the north
if the ship is sailing north and towards the south if the ship is sailing south.
③ 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 ϕ of the ship.
④ 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 θ = 40°, (b). Draw a horizontal straight line that crosses point (b)
and determine another intersection with the line of ϕ = 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.


B’

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.

2 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 earth's spin. The components of the angular velocity of the spin, ω, at point p
on latitude ϕ can be expressed as:
ωsinϕ (spinning motion around the vertical axis)
ωcosϕ (tilting motion along the horizontal meridian)

Figure 4
If the gyro shown in Figure 3 is placed on point p
with A facing east and B facing west and with the Up
North
A-B axis horizontal (Figure 5), the orientation of West ωsinφ
the gyro remains the same. However, since the B ωcosφ
inclination at this point on the earth remains the

same as time elapses, the end-point A of the A-B East
axis rises and the end-point B goes down relative South
Down
to the horizontal plane. Then, precession is Figure 5
carried out as the weight generates a torque to
return the A-B axis to the horizontal position.
Up
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 North
West East
end-point A enters on the west side of the Horizon

meridian, the inclination starts acting so as to lower


A. The torque caused by the weight gradually 下
decreases and precession stops when end-point A Figure 6
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.

IM80B10M-10E
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,
ωsinϕ (spinning motion), of the earth's 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.

3 Gyrocompass Errors
3.1 Speed Error
Refer to Appendix-1, "Description of Speed Error and Speed Error Table."

3.2 Acceleration Error


If there is a change in ship's speed or course, a torque occurs on the gyro-sphere because the
center of gravity of the gyro-sphere falls below the center of buoyancy. This causes an error in
the north-seeking reading of the gyro-sphere. This error varies with the position of the center of
gravity while the speed error also varies with the changes in the ship's 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 gyro-sphere in the CMZ700B prevents the
acceleration error from occurring. (As a result, the oscillation cycle of a gyro-sphere when the
damper is removed is about 85 minutes.)

3.3 Rolling and Pitching Error


If the gyro-sphere is continuously subjected to vibration from the ship's rolling and pitching and if
the vibration cycles along the east-west axis and north-south axis of the gyro-sphere 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.
