Technical Data - Vetus WSD833 Instrucciones De Instalación

Position the wind sensor in the base with the arrow
pointing towards the bow. The meter will indicate 0
degrees for wind dead on the bow and 90 degrees
for a wind on the starboard beam, etc.
If the system is used as a land system then zero
degrees should correspond to North. Now position
the wind sensor in the base with the arrow pointing
towards North.
Apply a moderate force to push the wind sensor into the base, the sensor will 'snap'
and will be secured to the base.
In all cases ensure that the wind sensor is securely mounted so that excessive vibra-
tions are prevented.
