I’ve a new sailing boat from 2010 and I wish to be able to configure one of my FI504's to show the True wind in degrees to assist with passage planning.
I get the apparent wind angle relative to our heading on the FI-501Wind. So I’m assuming we can also get the True wind angle for display on the FI504 Multi.
On the FI-504 when I cycle through the displays I don’t see the Wind angle display?
Can anyone advise on what I need to tweak to get the Wind Angle display as mentioned in the manual?
Many thanks
Nick
Configuration info..
I have the following old school setup with a mixed NMEA 1803 and CAN bus configuration.
The FI-501 Wind and FI-504 Multi’s are shown as CAN bus devices, as are the RD-33, Log sensor and GPS. For info PG-500, AutoPilot, VHF and AIS have NMEA 1803 port connections. See device list on NN3D MFD12 below
