RE: [CA] i60 True wind not working
Chuck,
I apologize for the late reply.

Yes the problem persisted when underway. I tried two different approaches:
- Started all the instruments at the dock, STW=0, no true wind displayed on the i60. Got under way (STW > 3), still no true wind.

- Left dock before turning on instruments. With way on, turned on all instruments. Still no true wind. Verified on MFD that all relative inputs were present (STW, Heading, apparent wind).

The i60 never seems to "learn" that it has all the information it needs to display true wind. Only a reset of everything makes it work ... occasionally.

Thinking it might be an issue with the ST-STng converter, I actually bought a new one from WM. Same problem.

Based on the forum postings and our private emails I was able to get the fine folks at Starmarine Depot to exchange the i60 for a new one. It should arrive in a couple of days, and I'll let you know if the replacement solves the issue.

Sorry I don't have a picture to send.

Thanks,
Mick
