Product catalog summary
Installation
Prepare the mast head for mechanical installation using the provided template for bracket screwing. Align the bracket so the CV7-E sensor faces the bow while the mast is aligned to the North. Fine alignment is achieved through software calibration. Ensure the cable is routed to avoid electromagnetic interference.

Wind Sensor Alignment and Configuration
The CV7-E is pre-configured with NMEA0183, a 2-second filtering, wind force in knots, and temperature in Celsius. Configuration changes can be made using downloadable software from the LCJ Capteurs website. Connection involves red and blue cables for power, and yellow and green for data.

Interconnections NMEA 0183
For RS232 PC input, connect power supply (12V) with red and blue wires, and NMEA data with yellow and green wires. For NMEA 183 standard input (RS422), similar connections apply.

Technical Specifications
The CV7-E operates within a wind speed range of 0.25-40 m/s, with a resolution of 0.1 m/s. It requires 8-33 V DC power and consumes 9 mA. The sensor is IP67 rated and operates between -15°C to +55°C.

NMEA0183 Protocol
The protocol uses a baud rate of 4800, with data sent every 266 milliseconds. Sentences start with '$' and end with 'CR,LF'. Examples include wind angle and speed data formatted in specific sentence structures.

Dimensions
The sensor has a diameter of 63 mm and a height of 61 mm, with an arm length of 300 mm.

Warranty
The CV7-E is warranted for 2 years against manufacturing defects. Claims require proof of purchase and must be sent to LCJ Capteurs in Vertou, France. Proper disposal of electronic equipment is advised.

1. Installation Prepare the mast head for the mechanical installation. Use the template for the bracket’s screwing. Align the bracket in order to have the CV7-E sensor heading to the bow while the mast is aligned to the North. The sensor’s fine alignment will be obtained with the software calibration application. Run the cable down to the display’s interface, avoiding locations where other cables or equipment may produce electromagnetic interferences.
