Works perfectly
Initially, I had some Bluetooth connectivity issues. I was able to resolve these following the SVB instructions. Since then, the anemometer has been working flawlessly and displays the data on my Vulcan7. Setting it up after the aforementioned issues was very easy. The range is good, which allowed me to mount the receiver below deck.

very easy to install
It's just great because you don't have to lay any cables in the mast. The thing has been working for 2 years now without any problems.

Hi, Is it possible to connect WS320 with a tablet/Smartphone over Bluetooth/Wi-Fi? I would like to use the wind data from WS-320 together with iRegatta Pro application.

Top answer from SVB customer service
Andreas M. | Jan 8, 2025

Hello Dan, for connecting you need more hardware like the NMEA-2000 starter kit and a WiFi gateway like our article numbers #85422# and #90289#

I have Raymarine AXIOM chartplotter. Is it possible to integrate B&G WS320 wind sensor in the system? Do I need also Triton display to perform calibration?

Answer from SVB customer service
Sven W. | Jan 11, 2023
User image of Sven W.

Dear Bostjan, the Axiom chartplotter got NMEA2000 and this Wind Transmitter also. So it is possible to connect both with a NMEA2000 Starter-Kit -#85422#-. Your SVB-team.

Technical question
Samuli S. | Oct 24, 2022 Flag of English
User image of Samuli S.

With wireless B&G wind transmitter W320 the BT receiver is recommended to be installed on the deck of the boat, on the front side of the mast. Will there be problems if the BT is installed on the radar mast at the stern of the boat? The distance to the top of the mast is about 17 m, and the installation location would be about 1 m from the center line of the boat. Is the bt signal ”visible” enough?

Answer from SVB customer service
Sven W. | Jan 11, 2023
User image of Sven W.

Dear Samuli, the range connection is by 30m. You have to test by yourself, If there are some disturbances on your boat by installing it by the back. Your SVB-team.

Which is the most suitable location to install the BT-receiver on fibreglass boat?

Answer
Cristiano P. | Aug 28, 2020
User image of Cristiano P.

Fibreglass doesn’t affect the BT signal much. On my 37ft boat I installed it in the cabin near the chart table just above the instrument panel, works perfectly. Important thing to remember, pair the sensor with the receiver before you take it up the mast.
