[DG11] Axiom Pro mods show own boat as target - Derekbreth - 03-02-19 05:19 PM
We have two Axiom Pro MFDs and since applying a recent software update we now see our own boat as an AIS target which never happened previously. Our AIS transponder is a Vesper Marine 8000 and we have made no changes to that recently. The transponder is connected over the nmea2000 network.
Please advise as to how to stop it showing as sometimes it even alarms as a dangerous target which is very irritating.
Thanks.

Hi Derekbreth,
Thankyou for your enquiry.
This general issue is related to the VESPER 8000, it should be filtering out the vessel's own ship details. As to why is has started to happen since the update to the AXIOM is unclear.
You could try carrying out a full factory reset on the AXIOM, however, the issue is more likely associated with the AIS receiver itself.
Has the boat location changed? the issue can also be triggered by the proximity the AIS repeater stations which are usually landbased.
regards
Derek

Thanks for the response. Yes the location has changed since we are circumnavigating so it’s continually changing!
I will try the factory reset option.
Regards
Derek

Hi Derek
One other thought is if there is an NMEA loop in the data side of your network and this is fooling the system into receiving its own transmisison. Is there an option in the set up of the Vespa to ignore own transmisison?
Thanks
Derek
