I am using my A027 to connect Raymarine ST60 wind instrument to OpenCPN 5.6
Wind angle is displayed correctly, but windspeed is approx. 2 times the speed on the ST60 display.
The NMEA debug in OpenCPN shows that windspeed value in knots is correctly sent as 5.1, but the Unit field shows meters/second instead of knots.

<GREEN>22:13:45 (Serial:COM3) $IIMWV,,R,5.1,M,A*14<0x0D><0x0A>My A027 unit is a few years old so maybe the firmware needs an update.
I cannot see the current firmware version in the config tool.
