S1000/s100 says no gps fix

ubettcha,

Unfortunately, all indications on the ST-STng Converter indicate that it is functioning properly and transmitting SeaTalk packets. It is recommended that you verify that the ST-STng Converter has been powered via its Power Cable and that the SeaTalk power lead (red) of the S1000's SeaTalk cable has not been interfaced to the red lead of the SeaTalk Cable in turn has been interfaced to the SeaTalk port (yellow) of the ST-STng Converter. Please additionally verify that the SeaTalkng backbone has been terminated with the supplied blue SeaTalkng Termination Plugs. Communications between the MFD and ST-STng Converter may be verified by examining the Select Devices list. Should the ST-STng Converter be listed, then the MFD would be deemed to be communicating with the ST-STng Converter.

If a) interfaced as specified above, and b) the MFD is reporting that it has a GPS position FIX, and c) the MFD has been updated with v5.69 software, and d) the problem persists, then it would be recommended that the ST-STng Converter be tested with another product having a SeaTalk communications interface with may display GPS data (ex. ST60+ Graphic MFD), a C/E-Series Classic/Widescreen MFD, etc.) to isolate the problem to the SeaTalk to SeaTalkng Converter or to the S1000. Alternatively, the ST-STng Converter may be sent to Raymarine’s Product Repair Center to be bench checked / serviced.
