The NMEA identifier is required for commissioning.
You can find the used NMEA message on the label on the side of the device.

Specialities of certain NMEA messages
•The NMEA message for indication of a rudder angle (NMEA RSA message) can
distinguish between left and right rudder.
Default: Single Rudder or Synchronous Rudder
•The NMEA message for indication of rotation speed can distinguish between engine
rotation speed (RPM) and shaft rotation speed (Engine/Shaft).
Default: Shaft rotation speed
•The NMEA message for indication of depth information can handle offsets which
comprise the difference from sensor (Transducer) to keel.
Default: Offset 0 – Depth relative to Transducer
4. Operation
4.1 Displays
Scale example: Rudder angle ± 80°, standing display
The read out distance for SERANA-Q 96 is 1.7 m
The read out distance for SERANA-Q 144 is 2.2 m
4.2 Pointer
When powered off, the pointer must be located on the lower left zero point.
For hanging indicators, for example some rudder angle indicators, the zero point is top left.

SERANA–Q Serial Analogous Indicators - Operating Manual
- 12 -
4.3 Scale
The scale is divided into 4 regions:
•Indication range with scale marks and figures
•Two ranges for overscaling/underscaling
•Overflow range - The size of the overflow range can vary depending on the used scale.
•Zero position outside of the scale - The pointer is located here when powered off, and
when no valid data have been received.
•Zero adjustment - By using the center aligned zero adjustment, the pointer can be
adjusted congruent with the scale zero line. Use a suitable screw driver for it.
Overflow range
The pointer is positioned in the overflow range as long as the value to be displayed
deceeds/exceeds the absolute display minimum/maximum. Then, the value will be cut off.
For example, on a rudder angle indicator, from ±81° to ±88° the pointer will be positioned
correctly. Only above ±88 °, the value will be cut off.
The overflow range can vary depending on the scale. For some values, there is only a
maximum overflow range (e.g. for depth indicators)
4.4 Status indication
The middle round LED is multi-color and, therefore, can signal various operating states.
LED Trend Trend Meaning
OFF
The device is powered off or defective (including firmware
checksum error).
The pointer is in the zero position.
Green
The device is operational and receives valid, constant data
in the admissible range.
The pointer is positioned according to the received data.
Green ON OFF
Green OFF ON
The device is operational and receives valid data in the
admissible range. The pointer moves and the yellow arrow
of the trend indication signals the alteration direction. The
signalling takes place already before a pointer movement
can be seen.
Yellow OFF OFF None or no valid data are received (e.g. cable break)
The pointer is in the zero position outside of the scale.
Yellow ON OFF
Yellow OFF ON
The maximum value has been exceeded. The pointer is
positioned in the overflow range. the yellow status LED
signals overflow.
Yellow ON ON
Fatal error, device is not operational.
Configuration error (Setup), selftest error, or over-
/undervoltage error. Only the voltage error could be fixed
on-board.

Operating Manual - SERANA–Q Serial Analogous Indicators
- 13 -
4.5 Trend indication (optional)
The trend indication consists of two green triangle LEDs to the left and to the right of the
readout text and it is optionally available for all indication units. For dials with white
background, no trend indication is available.
When the received value changes, the pointer moves and the yellow arrows of the trend
indication signal the direction of change.
4.6 Redundancy
The device is capable for reading a second NMEA message, for example from a second
sensor.
When the primary input falls out, the value from the secondary input is indicated.
When the primary input receives valid data again, these data will be indicated.
The status LED remains green as long as one of the two inputs receives valid data which
are in accordance to the scale.
When no valid data are received from both inputs, it will be indicated by a yellow status LED
and the pointer will be positioned on the zero position (calibration position outside of the
scale).
4.7 Dimming
Depending on the features, the brightness is adjusted by a dimmer next to the device (with
swivel frame housing) or by a dimmer on-board of the console.
The brightness is adjusted continuously.
SERANA-Q is compatible to the analogous dimmers of Weigel Meßgeräte quoted in the
certificates (Wheelmark) as well as to the DIM panel cDEV-DIM of Microlab GmbH and to all
other DIM masters with NMEA DDC protocol.
Order number WEIGEL dimmer
220.01.001 Dimmer in integration housing, illuminated, red colour
220.01.002 Dimmer in integration housing, illuminated, yellow colour
220.01.003 Dimmer in integration housing, illuminated, white colour
220.02.001 Dimmer for panel mounting
4.8 Calibration
For Wheelmark devices, no calibration is required.
Only calibrated NMEA protocols must be received.
4.9 Self test
During power-on, the device executes a self test. During this, all LEDs flash and the pointer
is moved from minimum to maximum.
When this self test does not run properly, the device is faulty.
Pay attention that the pointer is positioned on the zero position when powered off.
If this it not the case, correct it using the zero adjustment.
