How do I pair an Airmar wind system to my Bot?

Here is a video going through all the steps: 

 

Mounting and connecting the wires:

  1. Mount the instrument with the tabbing facing forward on the mast.  As a reference, the screw heads face forward and the black box faces aft.
  2. Plug the red wind wire to the red Pelican wire.  Plug the black wind wire to the black Pelican wire.

 

Pairing the instrument to a Bot:

  1. Power up the Pelican.  If you have multiple Wind instruments, only have one powered up at a time during the pairing process.
  2. Request a license from support@marksetbot.com mentioning which Bot you are putting the instrument on by the 5 digit number 00xxx. 
  3. If you don't see a Wind Search button, tap Reprovision (must be done after the license is issued)
  4. Tap the Wind search button which should immediately pair the instrument.

 

Moving instrument to another Bot:

  1. Tap Wind Clear on the Bot Phone of the previously connected Bot
  2. Follow the steps in "Pairing the instrument to a Bot"

 

Viewing in Commander app:

  1. Ensure the Bot is outside with a clear view of the sky (a GNSS/GPS lock is required)
  2. Tap Menu > Wind (if you are missing this option, it is that the app was loaded before a license was issued - so reload your app)
