Creating a Basic nMEa 2000 network for the GWS 10 and the GMI 10
If you do not have an existing NMEA 2000 network, you must install a NMEA 2000 network on your boat to use the GWS 10. For more
information on NMEA 2000, visit www.garmin.com.
1. Connect the two included T-connectors together by their sides.
2. The NMEA 2000 power cable must be connected to a 9–16 Vdc power source through the ignition switch of the boat or through an
appropriate additional switch (not included).
Connect the included NMEA 2000 power cable to the ignition switch of the boat or through an external switch. The NMEA 2000 network will
drain the boat battery if it is connected directly to the battery.
3. Connect the NMEA 2000 power cable to one of the two T-connectors.
4. Connect the included NMEA 2000 drop cable to the other T-connector and to the GMI 10.
5. Add additional T-connectors (not included) for each additional sensor or display device (not included) that is added to the NMEA 2000
network, and connect each sensor or display device to a T-connector with the appropriate drop cable (not included).
6. Connect the female terminator to the appropriate end of the combined T-connectors.

Configuring the GWS 10
Refer to your Garmin Chartplotter or marine instrument owner's manual for specific instructions regarding configuring NMEA 2000 devices.
To configure the orientation:
1. Select
Wind angle offset
2. Select the angle (in degrees) to adjust for the difference in orientation.
tip: The angle is configured clockwise around the mast of the boat. For example, 90 degrees is starboard, and 270 degrees is port.
to adjust the Wind angle Filter setting:
1. Select
Wind angle
Filter.
2. Choose from the following settings to adjust the filter:
•
off—turn off the filter to make the display more responsive to changes in the wind angle.
•
on—select a higher number to increase the responsiveness of the display to changes in the wind angle, or select a lower number to
decrease the responsiveness.
•
auto—automatically adjusts the filter settings based on wind conditions.
