• If there is not a horizontal surface on the mast head, an

appropriate shim must be added to create a horizontal

surface.

• The wind transducer should be installed facing the front of

the boat

, parallel to the center line.

NOTE: If you do not mount the device facing the exact front

of the boat, or mount it facing the back of the boat, you must

configure the wind-angle offset to receive accurate wind-

angle data by following the directions in these installation

instructions.

When selecting a mounting location for the wireless server

interface (WSI), observe these considerations.

• Before permanently mounting the WSI, you must test the

signal strength between the wind transducer and the WSI.

• The WSI is not water resistant and must be installed in a

location that is not exposed to any spray, washdown, or

submersion.

• The best location for the WSI is under the deck, near the

hull, as high as possible in the boat.

• You should install the WSI as close to the wind transducer as

possible.

• Metallic objects in the path of the wind transducer and the

WSI greatly reduce the transmission distance.

• The antenna is on the top of the WSI

when it is pointing toward the wind transducer.

• The WSI works the best when installed on a bulkhead

parallel to the pole of the wind transducer, in a fore-aft

direction.

Installing the Mounting Bracket

Using the mounting bracket as a template, mark the pilot

hole locations.

Using a 4.5 mm (

in.) bit, drill the pilot holes.

Securing the Device in the Mounting Bracket

Mounting the WSI

Before permanently mounting the WSI, you must test the signal

strength between the sensor and the receiving box.

Connection Considerations

The WSI must connect to a Garmin GND 10 to communicate

with the NMEA 2000 network on your boat. When connecting

, and works best

the included cable to the WSI and to the GND 10, observe

these considerations.

Item Description

Fasten the mounting bracket to the surface using the

included screws.

Loosen the lock nut

on the device by turning it counter-

clockwise by hand until it stops.

Place the device in the mounting bracket by pushing it down

and sliding it back until it stops

Secure the device in the bracket by turning the lock nut

clockwise by hand until it stops.

Attach the security clamp

nut from loosening.

Determine the mounting location.

Using the device as a template, mark the pilot hole locations

on the mounting surface.

Using a

in. drill bit, drill the pilot holes.

Use the included screws to attach the device to the mounting

surface.

These terminals are not used when connecting this device to a

GND 10 because the WSI is powered by the GND 10. If you

want to use the WSI with other Nexus

device owner's manual.

This connector fits only one way. Match the wire colors to the

terminal blocks before inserting the connector.

This connects to either NEXUS port on the GND 10

to the device to prevent the lock
