Puzzling performance from a new RD424 installation
Installed a new RD424 HD with cable on a dual E120 MFD Network.
Installed update 5.69. (From Radar Marine)
Performed reboot and master reset on both MFDs
RD424 powered up and ran immediately on both MFDs. Targets/ power up and down/ range / gain / see targets / all appeared to be well.
Got a call about an hour later from the to say RD424HD would not run. NO data source was reported
DC power to dome connector OK @ 12.8 vdc
DC power to breaker @ 13 VDC
Noted Activity on Switch port
Swapped a switch port
All other network devices work
It was necessary to cycle Radar breaker to start "powerup" process Softer key for Scanner was seen after a delay the "power button / TX" dialog was seen but pushing that soft key would not cause radar to Transmit and the softkey would disappear after some 15 seconds or so.
