to adjust the Wind Speed Filter setting:
1. Select
Wind Speed
Filter.
2. Choose from the following settings to adjust the filter:
•
off— turn off the filter to make the display more responsive to changes in the wind speed.
•
on—select a higher number to increase the responsiveness of the display to changes in the wind speed, or select a lower number to
decrease the responsiveness.
•
auto—automatically adjusts the filter settings based on wind conditions.
Configuring the GWS 10 if the Filter and Offset Selections Are Not Shown
Refer to your Garmin Chartplotter or marine instrument owner's manual for instructions regarding configuring NMEA 2000 devices.
To configure the orientation:
1. Calculate the degree of offset of the GWS 10 from the front of the boat.
tIP: The angle is calculated clockwise around the mast of the boat. For example, 90 degrees is starboard while 270 degrees is port
2. Select
Generic Configuration
3. Enter: "anGLEoFFSEt=" followed by the value you calculated in step 1 (for example: ANGLEOFFSET=180).
To configure the wind angle filter:
1. Calculate the time constant value for the wind angle filter.
tIP: The time constant value is a number between 0 and 254, which represents the amount of time, in quarter-second increments, that the
wind angle must change before it is updated on your display. For example, a value of 40 means that the display will not update the wind
angle unless it changes for more than 10 seconds. To use the Auto setting, which adjusts the filter automatically based on wind conditions,
use a value of 255.
2. Select
Generic Configuration
3. Enter the following command: "anGLEFILtEr=" followed by the value you calculated in step 1 (for example: "ANGLEFILTER=12").
