4.1 Wiring from the Apparent Wind Monitor
To open the housing, you access the screws located below the two side flaps. Use a
cross-head screwdriver to open the housing.
Run the sensor’s cables through the dedicated glands. Use silicone grease to
facilitate the cables passage. Strip the cable over 10 cm and put a heat-shrink sleeve
on the braid to prevent short-circuits. Tin the cables over 5mm and place them on the
relevant terminals. Add a plastic cable tie next to the gland, to protect the connection
in case of accidental traction on the cables.
Connection:
- Bus cable welded on the board
- The 3 wind sensors and the mast angle sensor are connected to the terminal on
dedicated positions. White wire: 12V; braid: GND; black wire: DATA.
The main wind sensor must be connected to AG1 input.
External connection:
Connect the bus cable to a Topline junction box as follow:
White = +12 V
Braid = GND
Black = Data
Red = NMEA0183 output
Yellow = NC
Green = NC
