(DG11) language issue

$
0
0
I have an EV 150 autopilot system and it works great. Somewhere along the line, it decided to speak in German. I don't know how I got there but the other devices on the network are in English. My German is a little rusty so I need to get it to speak English again. What is the procedure? You will need to give me the screen commands in German.

Hope your German is better than mine.

(DG11) ST60+ wind speed

ST60+ display with R28170 masthead. Display accurately shows direction but 0.0kts for wind speed. All voltages at display back and mast base junction box nominal: acceding to posted specs. R28170 removed 5 months ago and returned for service but tech could not reproduce error. With direction working, obvious that red and shield/ground working, and blue and green wires also show nominal voltage. Yellow wire measured at less than 1V at display back, junction box. Removed ONLY yellow from junction box and measured voltage across shield and yellow still less than a volt.

Display, cable, R28170: simple system, but having trouble finding problem

We have a long Pacific Ocean crossings in a week and do need wind speed. Boat in French Polynesia.

I need help.

(DG) Evolution ACU-150 pump requirements

Hello,

I'm spec'ing out an AP system, and the EV-150 complete system pack seems most appropriate for my boat. However, I have a contact a Seastar that can get me their own Type 1 AP pump for a very low price. So I'm also pricing out the individual components of the EV-150 pack, to see if I can save some money on the complete system.

Question:
My Seastar guy has asked me to confirm if this EV-150 system requires rudder position feedback and/or flow sensing?

Thanks!

What do the vertical lines within the Shared Brightness graphic represent?

What do the vertical lines within the Shared Brightness graphic represent?

The Shared Brightness feature within Raymarine systems is designed to permit the brightness level of the compatible MFDs, instrument displays, and autopilot control heads within the system to be controlled from any one of these devices. When the Shared Brightness has been set up within a system, the vertical bars shown within the Shared Brightness graphic (see image below) of the MFD's Shortcuts menu represent the minimum brightness and maximum brightness adjustments for the MFD on which the Shortcuts Menu is being displayed.

[Image: attachment.php?aid=1892]

These vertical bars will be displayed when there is another device within the network supporting lower backlight levels and/or greater backlight levels than are supported by the MFD on which the Shared Brightness graphic is being displayed. Accordingly, it is important to note that if the user reduces the Shared Brightness setting below or increases the Shared Brightness setting above the displayed vertical lines, no additional changes to the brightness of the MFD's screen will be observed. However, if the user reduces the Shared Brightness setting below or increases the Shared Brightness setting above the displayed vertical lines, no additional changes to the brightness of the systems other devices may be observed.

[CA11] Time reverts to UTC on i70 after Lighthouse 3 upgrade

$
0
0
Since upgrading my es98 to Lighthouse 3 I have some strange behaviour on my i70 instruments. When I set the time offset on the i70s to local time it will display the local time for a second or two then revert back to UTC. Nothing I do will let the i70 show local time permanently. This never used to be the case with Lighthouse 2.
Is there a fix for this?

[CA11] R70 display & antenna compatibility

$

I had an R80 PLUS display that has died, and I'm looking for a basic display replacement that will work with my existing antenna. My antenna is a 4kw open array, type 5S, pedestal is M92654, and scanner is M92693. I just want a simple stand alone radar, with no other nmea inputs, only radar. I've been offered an R70 display, (not a PLUS) and want to know if this is compatible with my antenna, or does it need to be a "PLUS" model ?

Thanks in advance for any help you can offer. Alan

[CA11] Polars table for Lighthouse II

$

I am trying to create a Polars table for my boat to upload to the e95 chart plotter. The diagram I have that shows the interaction of angle, wind speed and boat speed is giving speed as VMG. The sample table in the manual just says target boat speed. Is it expecting VMG or actual boat speed? Thanks- Dave

Hi,
I have been using Spotify and Netflix on the the boat - Axoim 9. A volume overlay function would be very helpful. At the moment one has to switch to the audio (fusion app) to adjust the volume and then return back to the media app.

Lighthouse 3 - Axiom Pro: How do I move App Icons

$

I have a new Axiom Pro with the latest Lighthouse 3 on it. On my eSeries screens with Lighthouse 2 on them, I can move the App tiles/ icons around to customize which App tiles/ icons show up on panels 1, 2 and 3.

How do you do this with Lighthouse 3? When I push and hold App tiles/ icons I get a popup menu to customize it, but not to move it. I'd like to take the 4-6 most commonly uses Apps and put them next to each so that I don't have to scroll back and forth.

Any suggestions? This was a feature in Lighthouse 2 and I hope it hasn't disappeared in Lighthouse 3.

Thanks!

Hi,

I have a ST60+ Graphic display mounted in the fwd. cabin on board my sail boat.

[TG11] Add i50 data and Smart Controller to EV100 wheelpilot... is schematic correct?

$
0

Have been doing my research here and with the manuals, and think I have the right setup figured out but was hoping to double check before I start ordering extra parts etc.

I started with no network at all, I just had i50 depth and i50 speed displays that had power coming to them and nothing else.

I have recently installed an EV100 wheelpilot, which gave me my first SeaTalkNG network. I used the "standard" installation for the EV100, here is link to schematic for original install (can't seem to attach images):
http://www.pictureofnectar.com/outside/base.png

I now would like to include a SmartController to control the autopilot with, and also bring my speed and depth data onto the network (speed so autopilot to work more precisely, and also speed and depth to go to the SmartController).

My plan is to add SeaTalkNG backbone to another T, with a spur cable going to the i50 depth and another spur cable going from i50 depth to i50 speed. Past the new T would be another backbone cable going to the SeaTalk & SeaTalkNG Converter (R52131). That converter would mostly be filled with blanking plugs, but would also have SeaTalk to SeaTalkNG cable (A22165) going to 3 way connector block (D244) which would have the SmartController base station plugged into it.

Here is link to my updated schematic:
http://www.pictureofnectar.com/outside/new.png

Does this look like the correct way to go about this? Did I miss anything?

Thanks in advance.

[TG11] es127 touch screen failure

$
0
0
Touch screen has ceased to work properly. History - worked perfectly for 1.5 years until recently. Failure was touch stopped working but occasionally it would act as if it received a touch, but very specific. If the screen was a data screen, then a beep is heard and the screen behaves as if it received a Menu -> Customize input. If not a data screen then you hear a beep but nothing happens. This occurs in 3 secs to a minute. Luckily disabling touch stops this behaviour. The screen works normally in manual control mode. The screen is thoroughly washed with fresh water and dried with microfiber but it makes no difference. The behavior happened only rarely. But on a 10 day passage, the first failure was after 36 hours, reboot solved, then failed after 24 hours, reboot solved, then started requiring 2 or 3 reboots to function with failures happening within the hour. Each time the screen was cleaned. The failure initially occurred after MOB was pressed then reset using v17 software - but was rare. Upgraded to v19 software and the failure became more prominent, until the trip. Now when I turn the display on cold, it will fail within 10 minutes, usually quicker. If I turn on my radar, failure is immediate. Interesting side bit is that id I disable touch while it is working, then when I enable it - no touch. Only a reboot brings touch is back. Very frustrating. I have not done a factory reset because Raymarine is unclear what data will not be restored. I have a lot of custom data screens. Do I need to recreate all of these?

[TG11] Quantum 2 power cable

$

I just purchased a Quantum 2 and I recieved it without power cable, which makes it absolutely useless.
Aparently, the proper power cable cannot be purchased and is not referenced by Raymarine nor by any Raymarine distributor in Europe.
Therefore I wonder why Raymarine is putting on the market this radar without power cable and without the possibility of buying one.

What can I do to get a power cable ???????

[TG11] MFD not discovering other STNG data (...is preventing data source connection)

$

Help!. I have recently acquired a yacht with 2014 Raymarine instruments: ACU 200 pilot, 2x P70s, DTS 800 sounder/log, ITC-5 connecting wind, 3x A65 MFDs. All worked fine until the previous owner asked me to delete his info on the MFDs. I also wanted to move these. Now, reconnected to the backbone, the MFDs show the message 'E22158 SeaTalk STNG Converter.... is preventing data source connection' and refers me to the user manual. The P70s are seeing the wind transducer but the MFDs are not. I have treble checked the layout of connections and all seems OK. I have read both A65 MFD and ITC-5 manuals and can't find any help. Might there be a software version incompatibility problem? But why did the system work before? Any ideas would be most welcome. Richard
