Axiom 9 Interface to I60 Wind Instrument Troubleshooting Approach Needed
I performed a test install of an Axiom 9 and I60 wind instrument before permanent mounting. The system was powered up before installation and using Settings>Network> Devices? >Wind, was able to find the i60 on the databus. The wind data was active on the Sailing page in the Dashboard App (it’s really, really nice!)
After permanent install in the pedestal pods, the Axiom could not find the I60 on the databus, but the I60 was operating normally. Remaking all databus connectors enabled the Axiom see the I60 again and display wind data. So I must have stressed a connector or cable and potentially have an intermittent open connection. I was careful in making the databus connections during assembly and reassembly (no bent pins and connector collars fully locked, although one collar fell off of the 5-way but was easily replaced). Q1. Is there an approach, other than watching the wind indicator on the Sailing page in the Dashboard App, where I can monitor the I60 PGNs on the Axiom and detect the loss of the PGNs while flexing the cables? Q2. Since the databus is on its own breaker/fuse (common house battery bank), could cycling of power to the databus only cause the Axiom to perform a hard reboot? I am about to add the I70s and Evolution and a ST to STng converter to the backbone and want to get Q1 resolved while the network is simple. Thanks – Dan Y |
