Zues 3/Triton, want to use SOG for AWA calc

Boat has only been in the water a month and STW is showing 0. I hate pulling the sensor and cleaning it. I only care about STW as it gives me AWA.

I thought I remember seeing that you can use SOG instead of STW as the input for AWA, which would be fine by me, I really want AWA, I sail where there is not much current, and I would rather have AWA that is not exact vs. only TWA.

But after going through a million menus, I can't seem to find where I can change this input. Ideally i wish the computer could see that if SOG is not 0 and STW is 0, then use SOG for the input to AWA as an option.

Was I wrong that it can't be used, or if it can, can someone point me to the menu to enable this. Thanks.

Thanks for this. I had Triton on my old boat, so that is where I knew this could be done. I have triton 2, and the manual talks about setting sog for calibration, but doesn't have the menu setting for just setup. I will go to the boat and see if it is there.
