into a suitable AC wall outlet or connect to suitable 12 to 30
VDC power source to terminals.
IMPORTANT NOTE! Do not connect two different power
sources to the Marine Wind Tracker at the same time.
5. When power is applied, the Wind Tracker will display firmware
version number then begin to display wind information as
follows:
•
Wind speed
•
Wind speed units
•
Maximum wind speed or direction degrees
•
Wind direction (single orange indicator)
•
Direction variability (green indicators)
•
Alarm status indicators (if selected)
•
Data averaging indicator (if selected)
6. Observe display to confirm proper operation.
CHANGING SETTINGS
Marine Wind Tracker parameters may be inspected or changed
in SETUP mode. Press and hold both

OPERATION
ALARMS
Wind speed and direction alarms each have their own set-point,
LED status indicator, and relay contacts. An Alarm Delay parameter
establishes the time duration in or out of the set-point range needed
for the alarm to change state. During operation, front panel LEDs
indicate alarm status.
LED Off = Alarm not armed and OFF. Relay open
LED Steady = Alarm armed and OFF. Relay open
LED Blinking = Alarm ON. Relay closed. Audible beep if Sound
parameter has been set.
AVERAGING
When averaging is enabled, the front-panel AVG annunciator is
illuminated, and average wind speed and direction values are
displayed at intervals set by the Period (PEr) parameter. When
disabled, instantaneous wind values are displayed.
