FI-30 Wind transducer
Thank you for choosing a FURUNO product. Through this manual we would like to
help you to install your new FURUNO product. Please read through this manual
carefully before starting your installation. This unique wind transducer provides both
wind speed and wind angle relative the boat. If a Speed transducer is connected to the
system, true wind speed and angle is computed. In addition, a compass or GPS
antenna may be used to compute true wind direction relative North

Installation
1.1
Location
The transducer should be mounted on a horizontal surface in the mast head. If the
masthead is not horizontal a shim has to be added. An 15 shim for Selden masts is
available.
The wind transducer is using optical sensor technology performing digital PWM output.
This technique provides high accuracy angle and wind speed measurements.
