[LW] [LW11] Upgrading ST50+ Wind

[Derek - Raymarine - Moderator]

Hi Corvus,

The simplest solution is to fit the i60 wind display, this will connect to the current masthead Tx, ( note that if the windvane cups are square instead of hemisperical, then the speed display on the i60 will read 30% too slow - this can be calibrated out to enable a correct windspeed)

You will have some connection issues, the ST50 + range used small round 3 pin plugs to connect to SeaTalk, wheres the i60 uses a round 5 pin socket and so an adapter cable A06047 could be used - cut the flat 3 pin plug off it and join to the seatalk network onboard. You can remove the plug off the end of the masthead transducer cable - crimp on 1/8" spade type connectors and then connect the transducer colour for colour.

Hoe this helps?
Regards
Derek
