EXPANSION
The h2000 System may be expanded to provide a wider
range of facilities and features by the addition of further
displays, sensors, and interfaces. These Options are
described in the following Paragraphs 5.2 - SENSORS.
Further sensors can be added to improve the accuracy of the
data already available and to supply new information.
5.2 SENSORS
5.2.1 Heel Angle Sensor
The addition of heel to the system provides display of Heel
Angle and increases the accuracy of the following functions:
Apparent Wind Angle
Apparent Wind Speed
True Wind Angle
True Wind Speed
True Wind Direction

Dead Reckoning
Tidal Set and Drift
5.2.2 Mast Rotation Sensor
This is essential if your mast rotates, otherwise the wind
data will become inaccurate as the mast rotates away from
the centreline. The addition of this unit gives two new
functions, the Wind Angle to the Mast (W/A MAST) and
Mast Angle (MAST ANG).
