NMEA 2000 Checklist
Conguring the Wind Angle Filter
The wind angle lter governs how quickly the NMEA 2000-compatible display device shows a change in the wind angle. A lower lter setting
shows changes in the wind angle more gradually, and may stabilize the display.
To congure the wind angle lter:
1. While viewing the NMEA 2000 device information, select Cong > Wind Angle Filter.
2. Choose from the following options to adjust the lter settings.
Off—the wind angle data is not ltered.
On—select a lower number to update the display device less often, and help the gauge needle or wind angle number to move or change
more steadily.
Auto—automatically adjusts the lter settings based on wind conditions.
Conguring the GWS 10 if the Filter and Offset Selections Are Not Displayed
Depending on the version of software loaded on your Garmin marine instrument, the specic conguration options may not be displayed on the
conguration screens.
To congure the wind angle offset if the menu option is not displayed:
1. Select Generic Conguration to specify data for the lter and offset settings.
2. Enter the following command: “ANGLEOFFSET=”
3. Follow the command with a number between 0 and 359, in degrees (for example: ANGLEOFFSET=180).
To congure the wind angle lter if the menu option is not displayed:
1. Select Generic Conguration to specify data for the lter and offset settings.
2. Enter the following command: “ANGLEFILTER=”
3. Follow the command with a number between 0 and 254, representing a time constant in increments of 0.25 second, or 255 to represent the
Automatic setting (for example: ANGLEFILTER=12).
To congure the wind speed lter:
1. Select Generic Conguration to specify data for the lter and offset settings.
2. Enter the following command: “SPEEDFILTER=”
3. Follow the command with a number between 0 and 254, representing a time constant in increments of 0.25 second, or 255 to represent the
Automatic setting (for example: SPEEDFILTER=215).
