EV 100 connected to Garmin NMEA 2000 network

[nanchris]

I have recently purchased and installed a EV 100 which replaced a 4000+ autopilot. I have Garmin chart plotter, windspeed/direction and boatspeed/depth instruments on a NMEA 2000 network. I have seen on this forum that there is a problem with getting track info from the Garmin chartplotter system. Its not just the chartplotter but all instruments. When I go to the device list on the Raymarine display it shows "No device connected" for every menu option.The display stills shows the wind speed/water speed/depth but not any track info. Since I don't own a Raymarine MFD I have read that I have to uninstall the three autopilot devices, send them into Raymarine and have the software downgraded then re-install the system. Is the software that is being worked on to fix this problem expected in a month or is it going to be something that requires 6 months or more to work out. I know this is difficult to estimate, but just a rough idea would be nice. I can either wait for the fix and uninstall/re-install once or have to do it twice.

Thanks
