The normal method of calibration is to travel a known exact distance
(i.e. 1 NM) and let the system count the number of turns the paddle
makes. This would imply that the paddle wheel rotation is actually
measuring distance and is linear.

Can anyone please tell me how did the speed transducer of SPEED2100
measure the speed of the boat?
I try to design my own display unit for this speed tranduscer. However,
i dont know the operation of the speed transducer, such as how i
calculate and measure the speed through the paddle wheel of the
transducer. When the paddle wheel is moving, how i going to know the
speed of the boat?
If anyone know, please tell me.
Thanks a lot!!!
