EMC conformance

3.2 User calibration

The ST60 Club House Wind instrument is set up with factory-
programmed default settings, so in order to optimise performance at a
particular installation, the procedures in this Chapter must be carried
out immediately after the completion of installation.
Where practicable, the calibration procedures are presented
diagrammatically to show the sequence of key presses and the
resulting displays. Adjustment instructions are given as applicable.
Always check the installation before use to make sure that it is not
affected by radio transmissions or other external electro-magnetic
influences.
In some installations, it may not be possible to prevent the equipment
from being affected by external electro-magnetic influences. Although
this will not damage the equipment, it can lead to spurious resetting
action, or momentarily may result in faulty operation.
The User calibration procedure enables you to align the wind
transducer and select the required wind speed units.
To calibrate your system, hold down the
approximately 2 seconds to enter the calibration mode, then press the
key to select the wind angle screen. This initially shows zero.
Referring to the User calibration flow diagram, proceed as follows:
1. Observe the wind vane to determine the wind direction.
2. At the instrument, use the < and > keys to set the pointer to the
current wind direction, As you do this, the wind angle screen (on
the digital display) shows the wind vane offset angle.
3. Press the key to select the wind speed units screen.
4. Use the < and > keys to select the units you want, either
knots (KTS) or metres per second (M/S).
