    Introduction The Marine Anemometer AM706 is a combined instrument for wind speed and wind direction. It can measure relative wind speed (accuracy ±5%), relative wind direction (display accuracy 10 ° , output accuracy ± 1 ° ). With inputting GPS (RMC) data, user can choose heading, true wind, or gust mode.
  • Page 5: Theory Description

    Instruction Theory description The wind speed sensor has a rotor with three wind cups which spins as the wind moves past the boat. The Wind speed sensor measures how fast the rotor is spinning to calculate the wind speed. The wind direction sensor has a wind vane which points in the direction that the wind is coming from.
