Paddle wheel frequency can be changed to match the requirements of different sensors. The frequency of the paddle wheel
speed sensor offered by Mercury Marine is 4.9 Hz per mile or 5.7 Hz per knot. Check the instructions that came with the paddle
wheel for specific information on the paddle wheel frequency output. Select the multiplier window and use the on‑screen
keypad to enter an amount. Selecting Auto correct will synchronize the paddle wheel to the output of the GPS. The slider bar
can also be used to achieve that same result.
Calibration of the paddle wheel is accomplished by using a GPS enabled device to help the operator adjust the reading of the
paddle wheel. Using the slider allows the operator to increase or decrease the paddle wheel sender data.
Selecting Auto correct will synchronize the paddle wheel to the output of the GPS (if installed on the network). The slider bar
can also be used to achieve that same result.
