Introduction
The WSD110 provides accurate digital instrumentation for
wind speed, average wind speed, apparent wind speed, true
wind speed and Velocity Made Good (VMG), apparent wind
direction, true wind direction and air temperature from several
different NMEA 0183 data sentences.
If NMEA 0183 boat speed or GPS data is available, the WSD-
110 will calculate true wind speed, true wind direction and
VMG with respect to the boat or respect to the ground.
Apparent wind speed/direction, true wind speed/direction, boat
speed and VMG data is logged to a non-volatile memory. You
can select 240 different logging periods between 2.5 seconds to
10 minutes per sample providing up to 40 days of data. Serial
logging data is output in comma delimited CSV (Excel) format.
The WSD110 displays Speed, Average Speed and Maximum
Speed up to 99.9 Knots (115 M.P.H.) in tenths, wind direction
in degrees and air temperature in degrees F or C. Speed can be
displayed in Knots, MPH, Km/H or M/S with selectable display
damping. Temperature can be displayed in degrees Fahrenheit
or Celsius. Speed, direction and temperature may all be
calibrated using the front panel keys.
In addition to the standard 0-360 degree scale you can view
wind direction on an expanded +/- 90 degree scale.
Five levels of backlighting can be selected and remotely
switched ON/OFF. All setup and calibration constants are
saved to a non-volatile memory. The WSD110 outputs NMEA
0183 data of wind speed, direction and air temperature and
works on both 12 and 24 VDC systems.
The WSD110 with its large display draws only .025 amps and
only .045 amps with full backlighting.

sensor with $WIMWV or $IIMWV wind speed/direction and
(optionally) $YXXDR air temperature output such as the Cruz-
Pro UWSD10 Ultrasonic Wind Sensor .
Display: 128 segment STN LCD, 5 levels of backlighting.
Outputs: NMEA 0183 Wind Speed/Direction and Air
Temperature:$WIMWV,ddd,R/T,sss.s,N,A*CS,
$YXXDR,C,tt.t,C*CS.

Wind Angle, True Wind Speed, True Wind Angle, Boat Speed
and Velocity Made Good (VMG).

Installation
Before starting the installation, please read this entire section
first. Finger tighten the screws that mount the instrument
bracket - It is not necessary or recommended to use tools.
lDrill a 2-1/8" (55mm) mounting hole where you desire to
mount the instrument (Figure 1).
lConnect the various wires from the two cables as shown in
Figure 2. Install a five amp fuse in the power line.
lCarefully check all your wiring against Figures 2 and 3
and then mount the instrument in the hole. Use only finger
tension to tighten the bracket hold-down nuts - do not tighten
too tight.

Operation
Key Functions
The t, :, sand Q keys are used to select what to display, set
backlight levels, calibrate wind speed, wind direction, air tem-
perature, change constants and units of display. New informa-
tion is automatically saved to non-volatile memory. Three
different types of presses are recognized: A quick press, a press
between 1/2 second and 2-1/2 seconds and a press longer than
ten seconds.
Backlight Intensity
Press :the key 1/2 second to adjust the backlight level for
night viewing. Each time you press the :key 1/2 second, the
level will get brighter 1, 2, 3, 4, OFF, 1, 2, ... etc. The blue
backlight ON/OFF control wire in cable #1 must be switched
to +12/24V for the backlights to work and offers external
backlight ON/OFF control. If ON/OFF control is not
required, connect the blue wire to +12/24VDC permanently.
Display Wind Speed/Wind Direction/Air Temperature
Pressing the t
key toggles the display between Wind Speed,
Average Wind Speed /Average Wind Direction and Maximum
Wind Speed. The decimal point will flash when showing
Average Wind Speed and Average Wind Direction. Press the
:key to change wind speed units of measure between Knots,
Page 7
MP/H, M/S and Km/H. Press the skey to toggle between
Apparent Wind and True Wind (if a NMEA 0183 speed input is
connected to the WSD110 yellow wire). If Average Wind Speed
is being displayed then True Wind Direction is also averaged.
Press the Q
key to display air temperature. Pressing the Qkey
again toggles between displaying degrees F and Degrees C.
Display Velocity Made Good (VMG) and True Wind Direction
Quick press both the :and s keys to display VMG and True
Wind Direction. VMG is Velocity Made Good downwind (see
“Notes”). The “TR.” symbol blinks when displaying VMG.
Display Expanded Wind Direction Scale
Figure 4 shows the two possible Wind Direction scales. Press
both the tand s keys to toggle between the two displays.

Calibrating Wind Speed
To calibrate the displayed Wind Speed value, press and hold the
t key for ten seconds (until you hear a long beep) while viewing
Apparent Wind Speed . The word “CAL” will be displayed.
Use the tand s keys to adjust the value to read correctly. Press
the : key to save the new value to memory.
Set Wind Direction Offset
A wind direction offset of up to +/- 180 degrees can be added or
subtracted from the wind sensor output to correct for mounting
errors of the sensor. To view/set the offset Wind Direction
value, press and hold the :
key for ten seconds (until you hear
a long beep) while viewing Apparent Wind Direction. The
word “dir” will be displayed. Use the tand s keys to adjust
the value to read correctly. Press the :key to save the new value
to memory.
Calibrating Air Temperature
To calibrate the displayed air temperature value, press and hold
the Qkey for ten seconds (until you hear a long beep). The word
“CAL” will be displayed. Use the tand s keys to adjust the
value to read correctly. Press the : key to save the new value
to memory.
Display/SetWindSpeed/DirectionDamping/Filter Value
Average Wind Speed and Wind Direction values are created by
filtering the Wind Speed and Wind Direction over a set amount
of time. You can increase or decrease the filter value to slow
down or increase the speed at which the WSD110 tracks the
instantaneous Wind Speed and Direction. To view and change
the filter value, press and hold both the tand s keys for ten
seconds (until you hear a long beep). The word “FIL” will be
displayed. Use the tand s keys to adjust the value to read
correctly. Press the : key to save the new value to memory.
The filter value can be changed between 1 and 9, with 9 offering
the largest amount of averaging. The factory default setting is
a filter value of 5.
NMEA 0183 Input/Output Sentences
The WSD110 has two NMEA 0183 inputs and one NMEA 0183
output.
The Wind Sensor NMEA 0183 input is on the Green wire and is
able to read Wind Speed and Wind Direction from the following
NMEA 0183 sentence:
$xxMWV,ddd,R,sss.ss,N,A*CS
Where sss.ss is Wind Speed in knots, ddd is Wind Direction in
degrees and CS= NMEA 0183 checksum.
The other NMEA 0183 data input to the WSD110 is on the
yellow wire and is used to calculate True Wind Speed/Direc-
tion. The WSD-110 expects to see the Boat Speed from one of
