[CA] [CA11] Airmar transducer/e97 issue

[Chuck - Raymarine - Moderator]

Welcome to the Raymarine Forum Mark,

Unfortunately, some third party devices and older Raymarine products having a SeaTalkng communications interface may cause the reported symptom. Please click here to view a FAQ addressing this subject. As noted within the referenced FAQ, this feature need not be exercised within a system which features only one source of data (ex. depth, GPS, wind, etc.). In systems featuring fishfinder sonar, the ping may be disabled to permit depth from other networked devices to used by the system. Sometimes the reported symptom may be overcome reattempting the data source selection. Please note that this symptom has been occasionally reported and observed when an AIS650 has been interfaced to the system. Should the offending device be unplugged from the system (possibly the AIS650), then the Data Sources feature may be capable of being exercised.

Please additionally note that the e97 is operating with older software and it recommended that it be updated with LightHouse II v19.03 software.
