5.2.6 Sea Temperature Sensor
Measures the sea water temperature.
5.2.7 Air Temperature Sensor
Measures local air temperature.
5.2.8 Load Cells
Facility is also provided for the input of load cell data . The load
cells should provide an output of 0-6.5 volts.
5.2.9 Sensor Input Configuration
Additional sensors can be added to the system by connecting to
one of the four linear inputs on the Main Processor or the
additional inputs on the Expansion Unit
. These can be configured
to take different sensors . If you connect the sensor to the linear
input that B&G have anticipated then you need take no action
beyond the connection itself, since the default linear input
configuration will be the right one
. The default settings for the four
inputs on the Main Processor are as follows:
Linear 1 = Heel Angle
Linear 2 = Trim Angle
Linear 3 = Barometric Pressure
Linear 4 = 0 to 1000 format
Should you wish to connect one of the other sensors, then you will
have to reconfigure the linear channel that you are connecting it to
.
This is done by following the menu path:
MISC
→ →
LINEAR X, CALBRATE
→ →
CAL VAL1
The number you enter to CAL VAL1 should correspond to the
sensor you are connecting as follows:
1 = Normal Linear output 0-1000
2 = 152 Wind Speed
3 = Mast Angle Sensor
4 = Heel Angle Sensor
5 = Trim Angle Sensor
6 = Barometric Pressure Sensor
7 = Rudder Angle Sensor
