Setup and Calibration

Wind Chapter

(s22) RESP Wnd

Sets the update period of the Wind display.

Auto/Slow/Medium/Fast

(s23) WIND (degrees)

Aligns the displayed Apparent Wind Angle with the Actual Wind Direction with respect to the boat. See page 25 for calibration.

(s24) WIND (speed)

Adds a percentage factor which corrects the information from the Wind Transmitter and ensures the Apparent Wind Speed is displayed correctly. See page 24 for calibration.

Compass Chapter

(s25) RESP HEAd

Sets the update period of the Compass display.

Auto/Slow/Medium/Fast

(s26) HDG (Mag/True)

Tells the instrument to display heading information in either Magnetic or True format.

(s27) HDG (degrees)

Aligns the displayed heading with the Actual Magnetic Heading of the boat. See page 26 for calibration.

(s28) VAR

Allows manual entry of local magnetic variation. This setting is ignored if variation information is available from a GPS source.

(s29) DEV

However carefully positioned the Compass Transducer is, there is always the likelihood of errors being introduced by the vessel and equipment. To remove errors it is necessary to “Swing” the compass by turning the boat slowly until the system can optimize the readings. Once the correction has been completed the deviation correction value will be displayed. See page 26 for calibration.
