Configuring the Heading Source of the Wind Gauge
You can specify the source of the heading displayed on the wind gauge. Magnetic heading is the heading data
received from a heading sensor, and GPS heading is calculated by your chartplotter GPS (course over ground).
1 From the wind gauge, select Menu > Compass Gauge > Heading Source.
2 Select GPS Hdg or Magnetic.
NOTE: When moving at low speeds or when stationary, the magnetic compass source is more accurate than
the GPS source.
Customizing the Close-Hauled Wind Gauge
You can specify the range of the close-hauled wind gauge for both the upwind scale and the downwind scale.
1 From the wind gauge, select Menu > Compass Gauge > Set Gauge Type > Close Hauled Gauge.
2 Select an option:
• To set the maximum and minimum values that appear when the upwind close-hauled wind gauge appears,
select Change Upwind Scale, and set the angles.
• To set the maximum and minimum values that appear when the downwind close-hauled wind gauge
appears, select Change Downwind Scale, and set the angles.
• To view true or apparent wind, select Wind, and select an option.
