{"product_id":"garmin-gwind-girouette-anemometre-capteur-vent","title":"Garmin gWind™ wind vane anemometer","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Garmin gWind™ wind vane anemometer is a wind sensor designed to provide accurate data on wind speed and angle to your navigation system. Unlike standalone NMEA 2000 sensors, the gWind™ requires the Garmin GND™ 10 interface to transmit its data to your boat’s NMEA 2000 network. This requirement positions the gWind™ as a key component within the Garmin ecosystem, necessitating system integration.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eIntegration and Performance with the GND™ 10 Interface\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe GND™ 10 interface acts as an essential bridge, connecting Nexus network devices, such as the gWind™, to your NMEA 2000 network. This gateway is critical for acquiring and sharing wind data. The GND™ 10 also provides USB connectivity to a computer, enabling advanced calibration of wind sensors, including the gWind Race™, via the NexusRace™ software. The data can then be used with third-party navigation programs such as Expedition and Adrena, offering increased flexibility for demanding users.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe technical specifications of the GND™ 10 include compact dimensions of 170 x 90 x 50 mm for a weight of 196 g, an extended operating temperature range from -15°C to 70°C, and a safety distance for the compass of 10 cm. It features an IPX7 waterproof rating, ensuring resistance to accidental immersion up to 1 meter for 30 minutes. Its NMEA 2000 power consumption is a maximum of 1.1 W, with an input voltage of 9 to 16 Vdc and an NMEA 2000 LEN of 4 to 9 Vdc.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eInstallation and Configuration\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe gWind™ is installed on a horizontal surface at the masthead, facing forward and parallel to the boat’s centerline. The transducer comes with a mounting bracket and screws, as well as a Nexus mast cable with a field-installable connector, allowing you to adjust the cable length to your installation. Configuration of the gWind™, including wind angle offset adjustment and speed and angle filters, is performed via a Garmin NMEA 2000-compatible marine instrument, such as a GMI™ 20, after connection to the GND™ 10 interface.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMaintenance of the sensor is simple, requiring only cleaning with a mild soapy solution and rinsing with water, without using detergents or high-pressure cleaners.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Garmin","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55859032359252,"sku":"010-01227-00","price":351.52,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0988\/3274\/4788\/files\/main_737b5821-4625-4ca9-800b-711ac6aa8417.jpg?v=1779186332","url":"https:\/\/skysat.fr\/en-gb\/products\/garmin-gwind-wind-vane-anemometer-wind-sensor","provider":"Skysat","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
