Appendix A - Notes and Warnings
a) During calibration or setting of alarm values, pressing and
holding down the
t
or
s
keys will cause the values to scroll
faster the longer you hold down the keys.
b) All calibration values, backlight levels, units of measure,
maximum wind speed,logging data, etc. are saved to a nonvola-
tile memory. If the power to the WSD110 is turned off and back
on again the WSD110 will be set up exactly the same way as
when it was turned off.
c) When True Wind Speed is selected True Wind Direction is
displayed. When Apparent Wind Speed is selected Apparent
Wind Direction is displayed. When Average Wind Speed is
selected Average Wind Direction is displayed.
d) When Velocity Made Good (VMG) is selected, the boat
speed is the speed component parallel to the True Wind Direc-
tion (VMG upwind) and True Wind Direction is displayed.
e) If no acceptable NMEA 0183 Wind Speed/Direction data is
available on the yellow wire (short cable #2), the Wind Direc-
tion and Wind Speed values will display as “- - -”. If no
acceptable NMEA 0183 Boat Speed data is available on the
yellow wire the True Wind Speed/Direction and/or VMG will
display as “- - -”.
f) If Boat Speed is derived from the GPS NMEA 0183 data then
the speed used for calculating VMG upwind is Speed Over the
Ground (SOG), which is likely different than speed through the
water.
