NMEA 2000 Checklist
Conguring 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 congure the wind angle lter:
1. While viewing the NMEA 2000 device information, select Cong > 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.
Conguring 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 specic conguration options may not be displayed on the
conguration screens.
To congure the wind angle offset if the menu option is not displayed:
1. Select Generic Conguration 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 congure the wind angle lter if the menu option is not displayed:
1. Select Generic Conguration 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 congure the wind speed lter:
1. Select Generic Conguration 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).
