Wind Indicator LED
Instruction for Use 4.3223.xx.x50
1. General Information
The Wind Indicator LED is a state-of-the-art indicator unit which displays both the wind direction and the
wind speed parameters. It is extremely reliable, flexible and offers optimal display.
Thanks to its compact construction and a system of integrated self-test functions, the Wind Indicator unit is
very reliable - an important quality. Moreover, its flexibility is guaranteed owing to the versatile connection
possibilities available on it to transmit the wind parameters; different wind transmitters can be connected or
the wind parameters can be transmitted over an optional serial interface.
Displayed are the True or the Relative Wind. The data for both wind values are received by serial telegrams
(NMEA-format).
Calculated and displayed are the instantaneous values of the wind speed and the wind direction. Moreover,
you can choose between 3 other modes of displaying the wind direction and its variation (see chapter 3.
Setting the Wind Indicator LED on page 7.
There are 3 different units for wind speed: m/s, kn , Beaufort (Bft). You can control the brightness of the
displays manually or automatically in a wide range.

Page 9: Operating The Wind Indicator Led
4. Operating the Wind Indicator LED The Wind Indicator LED is operated from the front with optical sensor keys. These keys are located behind the front pane. This pane of glass protects the instrument from dust. The sensor keys respond to the contrast between the reflected and the direct radiation resulting when the surface of the sensor is touched. -
Page 10: Selecting The Units
4.1 Selecting the units The unit of wind speed can be switched as desired by touching the optical sensor key OSK 3 (see figure3) with your fingers. The unit switches once a second as long as the sensor key remains activated. After switching on the indicator (hard reset) or the LED test (soft reset), you will get the unit selected at last. -
Page 11: Remote Control
4.4 Remote control The Wind Indicator LED can be operated from an external point. The precondition for this is that no 8 bit or 6 bit parallel wind transmitter has been connected (see chapt. 3. Setting the Wind Indicator LED on page 7). The following pins on the terminal strip can be used for the operation: Terminal Strip Function... -

5. Troubleshooting The Wind Indicator LED has a number of error control routines which are automatically carried out during the switch on phase of the instrument i.e. while the instrument is in operation. If an error occurs, this is indicated on the wind speed display in the form of an error code. - Page 15 Error code Error Cause / Remedy Remark track E,F,G,H (x=1,2,4,8) internal error (return instrument) V cc (wind transmitter) error internal error (return instrument) U ref error internal error (return instrument) watch-dog error internal error (return instrument) WD = Wind direction WS = Wind speed Remarks: 1.
