Figure 65 Aligning the Wind Vane

Using Compass and Reference Point

With the MAWS running, monitor the instant wind speed in the

reports sent through serial line.

1. The wind sensor cable must be connected both to the sensor and

to the Wind connector.

2. The mounting piece (2) must be placed on top of the upper tube

and the sensor must be attached to the mounting piece with the

plastic collar (3).

3. Choose a known wind direction reference point on the horizon

with the help of a compass.

4. Point the nose of the vane at the reference point.

5. Hold the vane in position and slowly rotate the mounting piece

until wind direction shows proper value.

6. Secure the mounting piece to the mast by tightening the

mounting screw (4).
