Detailed description

The B&G WS310 interface is a protocol converter designed to integrate data from a wired WS310 wind sensor into an NMEA 2000 network. This module is essential for connecting the WS310 wind vane anemometer, which communicates in NMEA 0183, to modern B&G navigation systems, including multifunction displays and autopilots.

Connectivity and protocol conversion

The interface connects directly to the NMEA 2000 network via a Micro-C port, representing a load of 1 LEN (Load Equivalency Number). It is programmed to specifically interpret the NMEA 0183 MWV and R sentences emitted by the wind sensor, ensuring accurate and reliable conversion of wind speed and angle data to the NMEA 2000 protocol.

Physical and electrical characteristics

The module requires a 12V DC power supply and operates within a voltage range of 9 to 16V DC. Designed for marine environments, the interface is IPX7 waterproof certified. Its operating temperature range is -15°C to +55°C, and its storage temperature range is -20°C to +60°C. Its compact dimensions of 90 x 20 x 10 mm and a weight of 0.2 kg facilitate installation. The device complies with IEC/EN 60945 standards and requires a safety distance of 300 mm from the magnetic compass.

« The essential gateway for WS310 integration into NMEA 2000 »

The B&G WS310 interface is a critical component for ensuring the transition and compatibility of navigation systems. It solves a common problem: integrating an NMEA 0183 wind sensor, such as the high-performance WS310, into a modern NMEA 2000 ecosystem. Rather than forcing a costly replacement of the anemometer, this gateway ensures seamless and reliable protocol conversion. Its IPX6 certification guarantees excellent performance in wet environments. It is the solution we recommend for making existing installations reliable and future-proof when upgrading to Zeus, Vulcan displays, or Triton² instruments.

Frequently Asked Questions

Need help? Contact us

What is the B&G WS310 interface used for?

The B&G WS310 interface is used to convert NMEA 0183 data from a WS310 wind sensor into NMEA 2000 data. This allows you to integrate your wired wind sensor into a modern NMEA 2000 network and display wind information on your compatible multi-function displays and instruments.

What B&G devices is the WS310 interface compatible with?

The WS310 interface is compatible with B&G Multifunction Displays, Triton² and Nemesis instruments, and B&G Autopilots that use NMEA 2000 wind data.

Is the WS310 interface waterproof?

Yes, the WS310 interface is IPX6 certified, meaning it is protected against strong water jets.

What is the required power supply voltage for the WS310 interface?

The WS310 interface requires a 12V DC power supply.

How do I connect the WS310 interface to my NMEA 2000 network?

The WS310 interface connects directly to the NMEA 2000 backbone via a standard NMEA 2000 connector. Consult the installation manual for more details.

Can I use the WS310 interface with a wind sensor other than the WS310?

The WS310 interface is designed specifically to work with the B&G WS310 wired wind sensor. Use with other NMEA 0183 wind sensors is not guaranteed and may require advanced configuration or may not work at all.

Does the WS310 interface require any special configuration?

Minimal configuration may be required to ensure proper data transmission on the NMEA 2000 network. Refer to the user manual for configuration instructions.

Where can I find the installation manual for the WS310 interface?

The installation manual is usually included with the product. You can also download it from the B&G website, in the product support section.

Does the WS310 interface come with an NMEA 2000 cable?

Generally, the NMEA 2000 cable is not included. It must be purchased separately.

Can the WS310 interface be used to connect other NMEA 0183 devices to an NMEA 2000 network?

While primarily designed for the WS310, it may potentially work with other NMEA 0183 devices, but this is not guaranteed and depends on the specific NMEA 0183 messages being output by the device.

Does the WS310 interface support all NMEA 0183 sentences used by the WS310 wind sensor?

The WS310 interface is designed to support the essential NMEA 0183 sentences emitted by the WS310 wind sensor for transmitting wind data (speed and direction).

Does the WS310 interface improve the accuracy of wind data?

The WS310 interface does not alter the accuracy of wind data. It simply converts the data from NMEA 0183 format to NMEA 2000 format without alteration.

Is the WS310 interface easy to install yourself?

Installation is generally straightforward if you have basic knowledge of NMEA 2000 networks. If you are unsure, it is recommended to seek professional assistance.
