I have an M232 camera connected to my C127 network port, the one on the left side of the unit when viewed from the back. Today I tried to hook up my new Cam220 to the network port on the right side when viewed from the rear but I get no video source message. Red light is on in the camera, any ideas?

[CA11] version 4.29 for E 80
I need help because i have two e 80 charpplotters in my boat that are connected, the software version was 4.29, I tried to upgrade the latest version but just one unit has successfully update and the other does not accept the upgrade, now the update unit does not works because it seems to conflict with the master unit that has the 4.29 version
I would like to reinstall the 4.29 version in the unit that have been upgraded but i can not find where download this version, and my radar and transducer are installed in the unit that is not update so I need to go back to the 4.29 version
Thank you for your attention

[CA11] Steering gear impact with rotary drive type 1
Hello,
After reading the installation manuals of a type 1 rotary power unit and consulting the detailed plan of my steering wheel, I see that I do not have the space to install the recommended drive sprockets either a 13-tooth drive gear and a 38-tooth steering gear. The maximum steering gear I can install is a 25 tooth sprocket.
What is the impact of this smaller pinion on the system? Should I plan another drive sprocket?
cordially

[TG11] ST70 Speed Calibration
I am having difficulty calibrating STW using an ST70 display. The speed transducer is Airmar and its connected to an iTC-5. I also have 2 x Axiom 7's in the network. In reading the ST70 manual it initially makes reference to starting the calibration at the lowest calibration speed of 2 KTS (Start Speed Calibration item 6). I did this and needed to use the maximum calibration factor of 2.0 but even then it was reading a little low. I then moved to 4KTS and needed to use a factor of 0.9. On For the 8KTS factor I motored at my maximum speed of 7.5KTS SOG but even when using a factor of 2.0 I could not get STW reading high enough. What might I be doing wrong?

[TG11] Speed Response Rate
After having removed several ST60’s and installed 2 x Axiom 7’s and an ST70 which interface to my existing transducers via an ITC5 I am having issues with trying to adjust the speed response rate for STW on the Axiom’s. I can adjust the response rate on the ST70 display just fine, but the Axioms remain updating much too quickly for a racing yacht which is a problem as these are my primary display – the ST70 is mainly only in the system as a calibration tool. I cannot seem to locate how to change the Axiom speed response rate.

[CA11] Low/High Frequency Transducer Option for Axiom DV
Hello,
I recently purchased an Axiom 7 DV and would like to purchase a thru hull transducer. I troll on Lake Michigan and won't require the downvision functionality and just looking for the best quality sonar.
I have found the CPT-S High Chirp Sonars but these won't allow for a 50/83hz frequency setting.
Will the CPT-S perform in 300-500 feet of water and still mark fish at all depths? I would be interested in the E70341. I believe this is a direct plug and play for the Axiom 7 DV.
Are there any 50/200hz transducers that will work with the Axiom 7, with or without an adapter cable?

[CA11] Upgrade to Evolution Autopilot
Hi, I’m plant to go offshore next year in my sailboat - Catalina 470 (33,000 lb, fin keel, balanced spade rudder, year 2000). I currently have S3G with mechanical linear actuator. I would like my autopilot to be able to steer in heavy weather should I encounter it - such as 40 kn wind and big seas. As I see it, I have 2 options 1/ recondition existing actuator 2/upgrade to Evolution AP with either linear or hydraulic. I will be upgrading to Axiom 9 MFD/Quantum 2 regardless of the AP decision.
My questions are as follows:
- what drive unit would be most appropriate for above conditions
- is there a substantial performance improvement relative to heavy conditions for the Evolution series or is the heavy weather performance more related to the drive unit ?
- with reconditioning my system and staying with the S3G be able to handle heavy weather ?
- long arm linear has hard over speed of 15 seconds - is that adequate for heavy weather ?
Any advice on this would be much appreciated.
thank you,
Tim Holley

[CA11] Raymarine Recovery Screen on Axium 9
OK, I downloaded the latest software update, extracted it on my local hard drive and copied all the files (the zipped upgrade file contained upgrades for every device that Raymarine makes I think! 1.2 gigs), to the root of the SD card. After the installation process I got the Raymarine Recovery screen (attached) and my software isn't updated. In addition, the Axiom no longer reads my SD card (I tried reloading with a fresh batch of downloaded files).
To make things worse, now I get a -60049 error for the Quantum radar saying it's not available. "Scanner failed self-test". I didn't even attempt to update the radar.
Need to know what to do next!
Thx.

[CA11] RV-100 Water Ingress?
I looking at my transducer I have found that the outer urethane had some defects that the barnacles worked their way into. It looks like there were several bubbles in the urethane that may be allowing water into the transducer. Not sure of this but I've been having strange sonar images that I was trying to fix with a software update. When I pulled the boat ahead of Florence I noticed the defects in the urethane surface.

[CA11] Merging old and New
I have an older setup (2004 vintage) in my current boat. I want to keep a couple of older ST1 components (depth display and autopilot) and upgrade the rest while maintaining interoperability.
I am removing the old HSB2 chartplotter/sonar and analog radar. I wish to keep the autopilot (all I need is a basic autopilot that can steer a route or to a waypoint) and keep the additional depth display.
In reading through old posts and faqs, I believe I have a design that will work, but would like some more knowledgeable eyes on it for anything I've missed.
I have already replaced the autopilot head with the P70R and have it working. I am in the process of replacing the older ST40 depth with the ST50. Next step is ripping everything else out and installing chartplotter, vhf, ais, and radar and getting them to communicate with the autopilot.
I'd greatly appreciate any comments on my proposed setup. I've attached an image of it. I'm concerned in particular with the autopilot as there is some ambiguous information on that between the ST1-STng manual and the faq on the subject that reads like the 150 and newer should work.

[CA11] RD218 radome compatible with both c120 AND rl70c displays?
Hi, I've recently read a thread which states that rd218 radome (currently connected to c120 display, so definitely compatible with this) is also compatible with the rl70c display. I'm sure I've read elsewhere, that rl70c displays cannot be integrated with 'c' or 'e' series displays at all. How can both be true?
Is it impossible to have a seatalk network which contains both the c120 and the rl70c, connected at the same time? (Eg rd218 feeding radar display on c120, whilst seatalk feeds GPS information, speed, etc, to the rl70c?
Thanks

[DG] Autohelm ST7000
TSDY TOPIC: Autohelm ST7000
After an extended journey from La Rochelle and some 3500nm on the clock, I finally arrived in Portimao, Algarve. The only problem was on leaving Sines the autopilot which had worked without a hitch for many hours on the trip down from England, malfunctioned and the warning signal flashed up on the Control Unit. I disengaged same to Standby and hand steered to Portimao. On stripping down the Rotary Drive Unit, it was apparent that one of the studs inside the electric motor had slackened back and the remaining stud subsequently sheared under the torque.
Easily replaced same and Loctite on all studs. Re-installed the motor in the Drive Unit, ensured cabling was as before and tested steering by hand all turning smoothly. Engaged auto at the Control Unit, momentary chattering then steering went hard over and didn’t appear to want to stop. Disengaged and ran through calibration settings and all as per the book.
Additionally, in auto mode +10 degrees of heading change commanded, then the wheel and rudder/drive moves to port. Similarly, when -10 degrees of heading change commanded, the wheel and rudder/drive moves to starboard. When switched into auto mode and no heading change commanded the wheel and rudder/drive makes small chattering moves and then goes hard over to starboard or port alternatively! I have read the posts on the Raymarine forum and understand that this may indicate that the drive motor phasing is incorrect, however the wiring is unchanged from before and don’t understand why the rudder/drive makes small chattering moves and then goes hard over to starboard or port alternately when no course change is requested. All this whilst securely moored to the jetty.
Would seem the Rotary Drive Unit is getting an erroneous signal from the Control Unit or the Course Computer but unsure how or why. The Rotary Drive Unit had two wires to power the motor and a pair of very small gauge wire to the electronic clutch which disengages on standby and engages on auto. The Control Unit and the Course Computer have not been touched but may have had some residual memory of the motor failing and the Rotary Drive Unit not operating?
Any thoughts gratefully received as unwilling to embark on my next leg to Morocco and the Canaries on hand steering!

Quantum radome not communicating with an Axiom/Axiom Pro/Axiom XL MFD via Data Cable
Quantum radome not communicating with an Axiom/Axiom Pro/Axiom XL MFD via Data Cable
It is recommended that radomes and open array pedestals be powered from a dedicated power circuit , permitting power to the radomes and open array pedestal to be switched ON/OFF without affecting the power state of the system's other marine electronics devices. Should a Quantum radome not detect the presence of a MFD within 10 minutes of the circuit supplying it with power having been energized, then the Quantum radome will enter sleep mode. Sleep mode may only be exited by cycling power to the Quantum radome via the aforementioned switched power circuit.
Should awakening the Quantum radome not be achieved via the procedure specified above, then it would be recommended that the vessel be connected to shore power, that its batteries be permitted to achieve a fully charged state, and that afterwards and while still connected to shore power that the system then be tested. Should the system function properly, then the previously reported issue would indicate a low power condition previously existed onboard necessitating more frequent charging, and/or additional battery capacity, and/or battery replacement.
Should the communications problem persist when connected to shore power, then the following procedure may be used to troubleshoot Axiom MFD Wi-Fi communications with a Quantum radome:
1. - Verify that the Axiom or Axiom Pro MFD has been updated with latest available Raymarine product software update.
2. Verify that Raymarine cables supporting Ethernet communications have exclusively been used.
3. Verify that Quantum data cable, Digital Radar Cable, and Ethernet cables have not been spliced. Should a Raymarine cable supporting Ethernet communications have been cut to facilitate chasing the cable, then pair of shielded RJ45 plugs should be fitted to the cut ends of the cable and the cable ends would then be joined using a R32142 Waterproof RJ45 to RJ45 Coupler.
4. Verify that excess Quantum data cable, Digital Radar Cable, and Ethernet cables has been loosely coiled (6" minimum diameter) and secured to a bulkhead. Excessively tight radius bends can impair Ethernet communications and may permanently damage cables.
5. Verify that no AC ripple is present in the power circuits supplying power to the marine electronics. This may easily be accomplished with the aid of a digital multimeter. Power conditioning should be applied when detected voltage greater than 0.009 V is detected. Separate tests should be performed with 1) engines running, 2) inverter (if any) running (if any), 3) generator (if any) running, 4) when connected to shore power and charging, and 5) under quiet ship conditions (all engines OFF, inverters OFF, generators OFF, disconnected from shore power, and only the marine electronics circuits switched ON).
Should the items specified above not identify any issues with the installation, then it would be recommended that a System Settings Reset (HOME->SETTINGS->THIS DISPLAY->RESET->FACTORY RESET) be performed via the system's Data Master MFD, that the system be re-configured, and that communications with the Quantum radome then be established via the MFD's Radar application
Should the problem persist, then it would be recommended that one verify whether the MFD's Ethernet communications port with which is being used to communicate with the Quantum radome is operational. This would be most commonly accomplished by interfacing the MFD to another compatible device having an Ethernet communications interface and testing the MFD's ability to communicate with the other device. The MFD's diagnostics feature (HOME->SETTINGS->NETWORK->DIAGNOSTICS->PRODUCT INFO) may be used to produce a list of devices having an Ethernet or NMEA 2000 communications interfaces which the MFD is communicating with. Should the MFD list a device with which it is conducting Ethernet communications (an IP address will be listed) is communicating with, then the MFD's Ethernet communications interface would be deemed operational. Please click here to view a FAQ addressing how testing of Ethernet components may be performed. Should fault isolation / troubleshooting identify one or more devices having a faulty Ethernet communications interface, then the device(s) should be sent to Raymarine’s Product Repair Center to be bench tested/serviced.

[CA11] es128 wifi software update / throughput on LH3
I am running LH3 on the es128 and enjoying the improved and fast graphics.
However I am not sure if the wifi software update feature is still forthcoming, or if I just can't figure out how to do this on the es128 with LH3. In the LH3 manual it shows that it is in the app section, but that is only available to the Axiom devices from my understanding.
Can you let me know if it is available (it does not show in the LH2 to LH3 missing feature list) and if not, if it is on the list of topics to be added?
Same question for the wifi throughput when using an iPhone/ipad connected to the es128 with RayRemote and sharing the internet connection from the es128 with the iPhone/ipad.
