Product catalog summary
Installation
Prepare the mast head for mechanical installation using the provided template for bracket screwing. Align the bracket so the CV7-V 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.

DVC Characteristics
The ultrasonic wind sensor includes an anemometer and wind vane, providing wind speed and angle as analog signals. Key specifications include:
  • Output type: Anemometer (open-drain), Wind vane (digital potentiometer)
  • Output rate: Every 533 ms
  • Power supply: 2.7 V to 35 V
  • Cable: 6 conductors, 26 AWG, RJ-11 connector, 5 m length
  • Dimensions: Ø 65 mm, height 47 mm
  • Weight: 110 g
  • Electrical consumption varies with voltage

Interconnections
Details on RJ11 connector wiring and power supply:
  • Anemometer (WS): Yellow wire
  • Power supply (VREF): Black wire
  • Wind angle (WP): Red wire
  • Ground (GND): Green wire
  • Power supply: Brown wire
  • Ground (GND): Blue wire
The anemometer outputs a symmetrical square signal with frequency proportional to wind speed. The wind vane uses a digital potentiometer to convert wind angle.

Technical Specifications
Specifications include:
  • Wind speed range: 0.25-40 m/s (0.5 – 80 knots)
  • Wind speed resolution: 0.1 m/s (0.1 knots)
  • Wind direction range: 0-359°
  • Power requirement: 2.7 V to 35 V DC
  • Operational temperature: -15°C to +55°C
  • Environment: Sensor IP67

Dimensions
Overall dimensions are provided, including sensor and arm measurements.

Warranty
The CV7-V is warranted for 2 years against manufacturing defects. Claims require proof of purchase and must be made in writing to LCJ Capteurs. Faulty products should be sent to their address in Vertou, France.

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-V 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.
