Garmin GNX Wireless Wind Pack with gWind Wireless 2 Transducer

Garmin GNX Wireless Wind Pack with gWind Wireless 2 TransducerThe Garmin GNX Wireless Wind Pack provides sailors with accurate, easy-to-read wind information without the need to run a data cable through the mast.The package combines the dedicated GNX Wind marine instrument with the gWind Wireless 2 masthead transducer. The wireless transducer sends wind speed and wind angle information directly to the GNX Wind display, making this an ideal solution for new installations, refits and boats where running additional mast wiring would be difficult.The GNX Wind instrument features a high-visibility, glass-bonded monochrome LCD display with large digits, a digital wind rose and customisable backlight colours. It can display two data fields and the digital wind rose simultaneously, providing clear access to true and apparent wind information, boat speed, steering guidance and other compatible marine data.FeaturesComplete wireless wind instrument package for sailing boatsIncludes GNX Wind display and gWind Wireless 2 masthead transducerEliminates the need to run a wind data cable through the mastDisplays true and apparent wind speed and angleTwo configurable data fields and digital wind rose displayed simultaneouslyHigh-visibility, glass-bonded monochrome LCD displayLarge, easy-to-read digits for excellent cockpit visibilityAnti-glare display finish helps improve readability in bright sunlightCustomisable backlight colours for daytime and nighttime viewingLow power consumption, ideal for sailing vesselsNMEA 2000 connectivity for integration with compatible Garmin marine electronicsWireless sensor and display are paired at the factorySolar-assisted masthead transducer with an internal rechargeable batterySuitable for cruising and performance sailing applicationsClear Wind Information at a GlanceThe GNX Wind display is designed to provide the wind information sailors need without overcrowding the screen. Two data fields can be shown alongside a digital wind rose, allowing the user to monitor essential wind information quickly and clearly.Depending on the available network data and system configuration, the display can show:Apparent wind speedApparent wind angleTrue wind speedTrue wind angleGround wind directionBoat speedHeading informationSteer Pilot guidanceVelocity made goodAdditional compatible NMEA 2000 marine dataSome calculated information requires additional boat speed or heading data from compatible sensors connected to the NMEA 2000 network.gWind Wireless 2 TransducerThe included gWind Wireless 2 transducer is designed for mounting at the masthead and provides accurate wind speed and wind angle information.Its three-bladed propeller and twin-fin design provide stable wind angle readings and responsive performance, including in lighter wind conditions. Optical sensing technology helps maintain smooth and consistent wind speed measurement across the operating range.Because the transducer communicates wirelessly with the GNX Wind instrument, no wind data cable needs to be routed down through the mast.The transducer includes an internal rechargeable battery supported by an integrated solar charging system. For best long-term battery performance, the transducer should be stored in a location where it is exposed to light when removed from the mast.GNX Wind DisplayThe GNX Wind is a dedicated marine wind instrument with a glass-bonded, anti-glare monochrome LCD display.Its high-contrast presentation and large digits provide excellent readability from different viewing angles and at a distance. The display background and backlight colours can be adjusted to suit different lighting conditions and helm layouts.The instrument connects to the vessels NMEA 2000 network for power and compatible marine data sharing.Wireless InstallationThe gWind Wireless 2 transducer should be installed on a horizontal surface at the masthead and aligned parallel with the centreline of the boat.Where exact forward alignment is not possible, the wind angle offset can be adjusted through the GNX Wind instrument settings.The transducer and GNX Wind display supplied in the pack are paired at the factory, simplifying initial installation and setup.SpecificationsGNX Wind InstrumentSpecificationDetailsDisplay typeGlass-bonded monochrome LCDDisplay functionDedicated sailing and wind instrumentData displayTwo data fields plus digital wind roseBacklightCustomisable backlight coloursNetwork connectionNMEA 2000Mounting optionsFlush or flat mountingWater ratingIPX7Primary useSailing wind information and compatible marine datagWind Wireless 2 TransducerSpecificationDetailsMounted dimensions345 610 mmWeight320 gWind speed range0.990 knotsWind speed range metric0.550 m/sOperating temperature-20C to 50CStorage temperature0C to 35CWater resistanceIEC 60529 IPX6Co
