2.4.1 Checking Connections
Once the NMEA 2000
that wind speed information is being properly transmitted by observing an appropriate display.
Refer to Section 5, "Troubleshooting", if no heading information appears.
2.5 Configuring the WSO200
The WSO200 has several configurable parameters, which are shown in the following sections.
If you are not using the default values, then you will need to refer to the corresponding section
for configuring the WSO200 appropriately.
The WSO200 can be configured in any of the following ways:
2.5.1 Device Label
Program this parameter with a text string which identifies this device. Maretron display
products will display this label text when you are selecting data to display.
2.5.2 Installation Offset Calibration
You may compensate the wind direction readings transmitted by the WSO200 in order to
create a 0° apparent wind direction when the wind is blowing directly onto the bow of the boat.
This compensates for installations where the WSO200 is not aligned exactly with the boat's
centerline.
2.5.3 Wind Data Damping Period
You may adjust the damping that the WSO200 applies to transmitted wind speed and direction
readings. The WSO200 comes from the factory preset with a damping period of 1.5 seconds,
which should be appropriate for most applications. However, you may tune the damping period
to anywhere between 0.1 seconds and 5.0 seconds if you desire.
2.5.4 Barometric Pressure Offset Calibration
If you wish to apply an offset to the barometric pressure reported by the WSO200, you may
change the barometric pressure to match the value you wish displayed, which will create and
apply an offset to future barometric pressure readings.
2.5.5 Outside Humidity Offset Calibration
If you wish to apply an offset to the humidity reported by the WSO200, you may change the
humidity to match the value you wish displayed, which will create and apply an offset to future
humidity readings.
