Full Version: eS78 + Axiom not working

Hello all!

I recently acquired a 9" Axiom plotter for the cockpit of my sailboat, to complement an eS78 I have at the chart table. They're interfaced via an HS5, along with a Quantum radar.

However, the eS78 has taken a disliking to the Axiom. It seems to alternately acquire and lose the Axiom as a data master, causing it to nearly freeze as it endlessly alerts and quickly recovers: https://goo.gl/photos/XMCMs1zJiJwUin359

I also have a Quantum radar connected to the HS5, which both displays are capable of seeing and using when the other is offline, so I don't think there are network connectivity problems between them.

The Axiom, for its part, correctly identifies the eS78 on the network when prompting for which display to make the Data Master.

I applied all current software updates before making that video - same result.

Any thoughts? Could this be a Lighthouse 2 vs 3 problem?

Ahh, nice, that confirms my suspicions, thank you!

No worries here! The Axiom chartplotter is unbelievable to use, it's so fast and fluid. Totally worth the wait.
You're welcome. Thanks for the feedback!
