Raymarine forum

I have new raymarine AIS 650 interfaced with a new eS128 using a sea talk to sea talkNG interface I think. I can receive AIS signals but it is transmitting intermittently.
It was transmitting, then it stopped, then it started again after several days then it stopped again. I recently got an error message that AIS external signal is lost. The home screen symbol shows active but in silent mode. The silent mode in menu says silent mode is off. I would appreciate any recommended solutions.

Additionally, for systems which have more than one GPS sensor (ex. Raystar 130 GPS Sensor, MFD w/internal GPS sensor), verify that the MFD's internal GPS sensor has been switched OFF or that the Data Sources feature has been configured to specify which of the vessel's GPS sensor's will be used to supply GPS data to the Raymarine system (excluding the AIS transceiver ... uses its own passive GPS antenna).
