wind transducer setup

[Chuck - Raymarine - Moderator]

Charlie,

You have not addressed my earlier question regarding whether you have confirmed that you have ST290/ST70 Wind Pod instead of an iTC-5. It would also be very helpful to have you specify whether the "pod" and wind transducer are brand new products of current Raymarine product designs or simply used or retired products which have been added to the vessel. Raymarine's MFDs will not automatically seek software updates for the ST290/ST70 Wind Pods, as these pods were exclusively designed to be updated via a ST290 system. Vane calibration typically requires turning the boat through two to three complete turns at a slow rate of turn. Regarding the "Slow Down" message, this is intended to alert the operator that the vessel's rate of turn is too quick or that a fault has been detected within the transducer causing the detected angle to jump.
