Get H5000 to output desired forestay value
I have a table of TWS and the corresponding Forestay load value.
How do I get the H5000 to output the Forestay value depending on TWS?

Re: Get H5000 to output desired forestay value
Go to Polars and select an unused polar i.e. Pol4. Rename it to Tgt_Fsty etc. This will then show as a var Tgt_FstyPol that you can send out the websocket via external channels.
Create the polar respecting the usual polar conventions of any resolution you wish. Note that the output will be a polar number, not a target (vmg) number, so you may want to 'fudge' the TWA entries 5-10 deg each side of what would be a target TWA.
