ALOG: (Analog sub menu) The filter sub menu that adjusts the dampening rate for wind data on the wind rose. ANGL: (Angle sub menu) The sensor sub menu that adjusts the wind-angle offset of the data from the wind sensor. APP: (Apparent Wind Angle) Shown in the upper-left data field. The wind angle measured relative to the bow of the vessel. AWA: (Apparent Wind Angle) The wind angle measured relative to the bow of the vessel. AWS: (Apparent Wind Speed) The measured speed of the wind. BEEP: (Beep sub menu) The system sub menu that enables and disables key-press sounds. BSP: (Boat Speed) The speed of the boat through the water. BSP%: (Boat speed sub menu) The sensor sub menu that adjusts the speed data shown from a connected speed sensor. BTW: (Bearing to Waypoint) The direction of travel towards a destination waypoint. COLR: (Color sub menu) The system sub menu that changes the color of the instrument display. CTS: (Course to Steer) The calculated course to a destination, compensating for drift. DATA: (Data menu) The menu category containing instrument page configuration items.

SYST: (System menu) The menu category containing system configuration items. TRU: (True Wind Angle) Shown in the upper-left data field. The angle of the wind, compensated by the forward speed of the vessel. TWA: (True Wind Angle) The angle of the wind, compensated by the forward speed of the vessel. TWD: (True Wind Direction) The true direction of the wind relative to north. TWS: (True Wind Speed) The speed of the wind, compensated by the forward speed of the vessel. VMG: (Velocity Made Good ) See Velocity Made Good, page 4. WIND: (Wind sub menu) The unit sub menu that adjusts the units of measure used to represent wind speed. WXDR: (Wind transducer sub menu) The sensor sub menu that turns on and off data from the connected wind sensor. Velocity Made Good Velocity made good (VMG) is the speed into or away from the wind. VMG is calculated using boat-speed data from sensors on the NMEA 2000 network. Wind direction VMG Boat speed 1 The device withstands incidental exposure to water of up to 1 m for up to 30 min.
