GENERAL INTRODUCTION TO B&G NETWORK The B&G Network range of instruments is designed to be used as individual units or connected together to form an integrated navigational system. A single network cable is used to carry data and power between units. The latest technology and screened cables - Lowrance Auto-Standby button Metal | Network Wind User Manual - Page 3
INTRODUCTION TO NETWORK WIND The Network WIND unit measures and displays wind information on an analogue 3600 Apparent Wind Angle meter and a back-lit Liquid Crystal Display (LCD). The five keys allow selection of the information displayed on the LCD and setting of the units mode, Wind Sensor offset - Lowrance Auto-Standby button Metal | Network Wind User Manual - Page 4
EXAMPLES SYSTEMS USING NETWORK WIND Only one Network WIND unit should have a wind sensor connected to it and set to transducer mode. Up to three more Network WIND units can be connected on to the system network, these must be set to repeater mode. See SELECTING THE DISPLAY MODE. For True wind - Lowrance Auto-Standby button Metal | Network Wind User Manual - Page 5
SELECTING THE DISPLAY MODE The Network WIND unit has three operating modes. The correct mode must be selected for your Network system to operate correctly. tu Unit mode, the unit uses and displays wind data from a wind sensor connected directly into the display unit. Your unit is supplied in this - Lowrance Auto-Standby button Metal | Network Wind User Manual - Page 6
THE ANALOGUE DIAL AND POINTER The analogue pointer always indicates Apparent Wind Angle on the 3600 dial. Each division marker is at 300 intervals. The LCD is offset to the left so when running with the wind astern the wind angle can still be read clearly. USING THE APP. KEY Press the APP. key to - Lowrance Auto-Standby button Metal | Network Wind User Manual - Page 7
USING THE TRUE KEY Press the TRUE key to display True Wind Speed on the LCD. The LCD TRUE legend will be displayed. If boat speed data is not available the LCD digits will be blank and the TRUE legend will be displayed. USING THE VOLTS KEY Press the VOLTS key to display Battery Volts on the LCD. - Lowrance Auto-Standby button Metal | Network Wind User Manual - Page 8
USING THE SETUP KEY Press the SETUP key to cycle through the following options on the LCD. dS Damping Speed, this is the response time of the LCD wind speed display. dA Damping Analogue, this is the response time of the analogue pointer. OF Offset, this is the offset calibration value to correct - Lowrance Auto-Standby button Metal | Network Wind User Manual - Page 9
LCD WIND SPEED DAMPING The wind speed damping allows the response time of the LCD wind speed display to be slowed down if the values are to jumpy in gusty conditions. The damping works by averaging the wind speed over a set time period, the longer the time period the smoother the displayed values, - Lowrance Auto-Standby button Metal | Network Wind User Manual - Page 10
Press SETUP key once to display dS, damping Speed. Press ENTER key to display current damping speed. The display flashes. Use ¿ or À key to cycle through the damping values. Press ENTER key to memorise the new value. After 30 secs the display will revert to previously selected display. HB-0502- - Lowrance Auto-Standby button Metal | Network Wind User Manual - Page 11
ANALOGUE POINTER DAMPING The analogue pointer damping allows the response time of the analogue display to be slowed down if the values are to jumpy in gusty conditions. The damping works by averaging the wind angle over a set time period, the longer the time period the smoother the displayed values, - Lowrance Auto-Standby button Metal | Network Wind User Manual - Page 12
WIND SENSOR MISALIGNMENT CORRECTION For accurate wind angle readings the wind sensor should be pointing forward and aligned with the centreline of the boat. However, this is not always possible, so Network WIND allows a wind sensor offset value to be entered to compensate for the misalignment - Lowrance Auto-Standby button Metal | Network Wind User Manual - Page 13
ADJUSTING THE WIND SENSOR OFFSET If the value calculated is positive, the wind sensor is misaligned to Port. To correct this the analogue pointer must be offset clockwise (towards starboard) by the value calculated. Use the ¿ key (up) to change the value displayed on the LCD. If the value is - Lowrance Auto-Standby button Metal | Network Wind User Manual - Page 14
USING THE LIGHTS KEY The Network WIND Display unit has 3 levels of illumination and off, controlled by the LIGHTS key. The level selected is for the whole Network system. • L0 OFF • L3 High • L2 Medium • L1 Low The LIGHTS key also changes the illumination level of the key legends, it always remains - Lowrance Auto-Standby button Metal | Network Wind User Manual - Page 15
INSTALLATION The display heads are supplied with a clip-in mounting bracket which allows for easy installation, access from behind is not necessary to secure the unit in place. However to prevent theft and permanently fix the unit in position, locking studs and thumb nuts are supplied. SITING THE - Lowrance Auto-Standby button Metal | Network Wind User Manual - Page 16
