E80 radar overlay blanked in close range

[Phil Niles]

Chuck,
I was afraid you would ask for the SW version. I'll get it this weekend.
When the full page radar app is displayed no joy, change the range to over 2 miles and you will see the video show up.
The system is integrated with a ST 4000+ A/P using the fluxgate heading sensor. That is the only heading sensor (right now--- plan is to install a maretron in the near future). A Ray 120 GPS provides heading information that is displayed on the E80's data bar. As you can imagine, the own ship icon does not follow the GPS heading. I have not displayed the CDI screen but showing the heading info via the menu button and then punching down into shows blanks. When in the slip I can align the EBL. I thought the radar had broke and just happened to expand the chart view and noticed the video. Brought back memory of fiddling with the same problem years ago. Just completed a calibration swing on the fluxgate, it passed.
