DataHub by PredictWind User Manual

Configuring the DataHub
A GPS feed, an internet connection, and tracking at minimum need to be configured to allow the tracking
of your vessel on your tracking and blogging page at PredictWind.
Once logged into DataHub’s administrative
website, browse to Services > NMEA to
configure the GPS feed.
On a mobile device, you do this by clicking on
the Hamburger Icon on the top left of the
page and under Services selecting NMEA. On
a laptop with a larger display area, you will see
the Services menu on the left.
Configuring the GPS feed
Use the Source pull-down menu to select the GPS source. If using the built-in GPS, make sure that the
DataHub is installed with the supplied GPS antenna and with good access to the GPS signal.
The built-in GPS in the DataHub should only be used if you do not have an NMEA 2000 instrument
system with external GPS. By interfacing with the NMEA 2000 instrumentation (with the optional
PredictWind Cable/Tee) you will also be able to transmit Wind Speed and Direction from your
instrumentation so friends and family can see the conditions you are experiencing. Note: An externally
mounted GPS will be more accurate.
