Gill WindDisplay
Wind display for reading out wind speed and direction using
high visibility LED technology. Compatible with the WindSonic
and WindObserver
anemometers. Available in two display formats (standard and marine)
and 110 or 240 V ac operation with RS422 or NMEA inputs.
The Gill Instruments digital wind speed indicator is a combined
wind speed and direction display available in two formats - standard
or marine. Wind speed information is displayed using two, 3 digit
LED arrays to display current wind speed and maximum or minimum
gust data; and a double ring of 36 LEDs indicate current and average
wind direction.
Gill wind speed indicators have been designed to operate with the
Gill WindObserver II and WindSonic wind sensors. The Wind Display
receives data directly from the wind sensor in either Gill or NMEA
mode without the need for additional interfaces. It provides the
power supply for the wind sensor and can be “daisy chained”
to a second wind display to transfer wind sensor information.
Depending upon the capacity and type of cable used data transfer
is possible up to a distance of 1000m. User configurable, this wind
speed indicator can display wind speed in various scales, mph, m/s,
knots, km/h and Beaufort. The power supply can also be configured
to meet specific customer requirements. A standard WindDisplay has
0°-359° scale whereas the marine version, designed for use
on board ships, shows 0°-180° on both sides of the scale.
