Note: You can only use Wind Vane mode if you have connected the
to a suitable wind instrument/vane providing SeaTalk or
NMEA wind direction information.
To use Wind Vane mode (also known as Vane mode), the

•
SeaTalk wind instrument, connected to the via SeaTalk
•
NMEA wind instrument
•
Raymarine wind vane connected through a SeaTalk interface box
In Wind Vane mode the maintains a course relative to an
apparent wind angle. It uses wind trim to eliminate the effects of
turbulence and short term wind variations. This provides smooth and
precise performance with minimal power consumption.
When the is in Wind Vane mode it uses the fluxgate
compass as the primary heading reference. As changes in the
apparent wind angle occur, the adjusts the locked compass
heading to maintain the original apparent wind angle.
Selecting Wind Vane mode
You can select Wind Vane mode from either Standby or Auto mode:
1. Steady the boat onto the required apparent wind angle.
2. Press
standby
and
auto
together to select Wind Vane mode and
lock the current apparent wind angle:
•
the display shows the locked heading (e.g.
128°
) along with
the apparent wind angle (e.g.
WIND 145P
indicates an apparent
wind angle of 145° to port)
The will then adjust the boat’s heading to maintain the
locked apparent wind angle.
