Configuration Menus This section provides details for the items in the configuration menu, organized by menu and sub-menu decimal values. 1.0 DATA Configuration Settings 1.1 Lower data field configuration: Changes the speed type on the current instrument page. 1.2 Upper data field configuration: Changes the wind direction or angle type on the current instrument page. 1.3 Wind rose configuration: Changes the function of the wind rose on the current instrument page. 2.0 FILT Configuration Settings In the filter configuration menu, you can adjust damping of the data received from the sensor before it is shown in each data category (2.1 through 2.9). The higher you set the update rate (0 through 9) for each data category, more the data is dampened to remove the more extreme readings. For example, setting a higher filter for TWS may provide a more stable wind-speed reading in gusty conditions. The glossary defines the data-type abbreviations used in this menu (Abbreviation Glossary, page 4). 3.0 UNIT Configuration Settings 3.1 WIND: Changes the units of measure used for wind speed. 3.2 BSP: Changes the units of measure used for boat speed. 3.3 NRTH: Changes the north reference for the heading and wind direction.
