As one sails with the
LX-360, the
instrument will
give continuous apparent wind angle readings with
relation to
the lubber (fore and aft)
line
of the boat.
The
meter
(being
full 360
°
) will
pass
through
0°
when
tacking
and
through
180°
when jibing
.
The
di~
ital
wind speed display will indicate apparent wind
speed under all operating
circumstances.
The
front panel of your
LX-360
is scratch resis-
tant
and the housing
has
an anodized finish
.
You
may clean and wipe
the
face panel as you would
other parts of the
boat,
using
a mild soap and water
as necessary (highly
abrasive
clean ers
are
not
recommended). Do
not, however,
spray the rear
panel
connections.
The
liquid crystal
display
of your new instrument
has
been
thoroughly tested
and
manufactured
for
the marine
environment.
Under
extreme
tempera-
tures, however,
the
display will become
unreadable.
Extreme heat
(above
175°
F)
will tend
to
black out
the
display,
(display will
become
operational again
when temperature
is reduced)
while extreme cold
(below
10°
F)
will slow
the
digits
to
a point where
they
will
"freeze"
on one
number.
This
is
normal
and
should
be
expected
by the new
owner.
As noted in
the
specifications,
storage
temperatures
are
higher
and lower than the
above
mentioned
operation
temperatures, h·owever,
temperature
extremes
beyond these
specified can destroy
the liquid
crystal
display
and void
the
warranty.
In normal
operation a small amount of
heat
will
be generated by the night lighting
of
the LX-360.
This
will
not harm the instrument and
may be desirable
even
in
daylight while operating in colder
temperatures.
Your
LX-360 has a front panel
cover
to help pro-
tect
the
face
and
the
liquid
crystal
display
when
the
instrument
is not
in
use. This protective
cover should
be
used
whenever your
boat is left for a period of
1e or when conditions
warrant further
instrument
rotection
.
Installation
The LX-360 is intended to be permanently installed
in a cockpit bulkhead
or instrument
console.
It
will
be
watertight and
theft proof when properly installed.
Select
a location on
a flat
surface
which is
easily
seen by
the helmsman while in
his
normal steering
position.
Saw
a
4
1
/ 8
"
diameter hole in the panel for clear-
ance of
the instrument's body. Remove
the clamp
ring from the instrument. Apply a small amount of
waterproof bedding compound
around
the
outer
edge of
the hole and press the instrument into place.
Make
sure
the
0°
and
180°
markings line up
vertically.
Next,
place
the
clamp
ring on the LX-360's
body, from the
inside,
and press against the bulk-
head
or console.
Tighten the set
screws
to the
instrument,
then the set screws against the mounting
panel
,
to hold the LX-360 in place (see figure 2).
Service of the instrument may be accomplished
by removing the
"spring
retaining ring
"
from the rear
panel
and sliding
the
electronics
package out
ugh the back
of
the instrument. This eliminates
need
to break the
instrument's
waterproof seal.
