[TG] [TG11] Bermuda Data Sources Screen Not Reporting Some Values

[Tom - Raymarine - Moderator]

Hello Dan,

The warning that you're seeing with the ST1-STNG convertor is because the convertor is running software that is too old to be aware of Data Source selection. This was a feature we introduced in late 2011, but your convertor's serial number indicates that it was made in March 2011. You can update the convertor's software through the Axiom display (Home > Settings > Update Software > Check Online > Wifi Settings (connect to Wifi, e.g. a hotspot off your phone) > Start.) This may be the reason why you're not seeing all values in the Data Source selection now: when the blocking device is detected, Data Source searching stops.

I think that the likely reason why you're seeing intermittent data with Auto selection and not with manual selection is that you have interrupted/intermittent traffic in your network, and with Auto selection the system starts looking for an alternate source when data is lost, whereas with manual selection the system doesn't attempt to do this and keeps the last-known value from the preferred source for a timeout-period which happens to be just long enough, it would seem, for the next correct data to be received by your display.

I'd update the ST1-STNG convertor's software, avoid manual Data Source selection (I would only ever use Data Source selection in the instance where you have two sources of a particular data type and need to make a specific choice between them) and check the integrity of your ST1 and STNG networks.

Regards,
Tom
