THE ALL-IN-ONE GAUGE
The VMH device can easily be configured to be
the instrument you need - thanks to its sun-
readable display embedded into a standard 52
mm instrument housing with the elegant VMH-
series look.
The EasyLink- nterface allows the device to
display a variety of different datatypes, received
from any VMH- or OceanLink master device.
The simple but effective graphic design presents
the data in a clear and intuitive form. n addition,
the round bar graph with the customizable range
and the alarm displays helps you to visually better
understand your data.

Thanks to the contactless configuration you can
setup your all-in-one instrument with your
smartphone!
Launch the companion app and define your
settings through the user-friendly interface, then
simply hold your mobile device in proximity of the
VMH 14 device to transfer the configuration.
Thanks to the embedded passive antenna the
configuration can be done powerless!
