[DG] [DG11] e7 - PGN

[MilchCow]

Hi Forum,

Allow me to say hi - this is my first post! :-) My name is Josh, I sail a 26ft cruiser in the Netherlands.

On board, I have installed an e7 MFD which, due to its installed location beneath the sprayhood, seemingly has difficulties in catching a reliable GPS signal. I also have installed on board two other possible sources of GPS signals, being a DSC VHF and an AIS transponder.

I now read elsewhere that the Raymarine MFDs are rather tricky in accepting the GPS position from other sources, and that in particular PGN 129029 will be needed for the e7 to accept the signal.

Could someone confirm that this is correct, as none of the other sources seem to be able to make this PGN available? Would anyone be some to propose smart ideas how to make this work?

Cheers,
Josh
