[DG] [DG11]Seatalk Failure

[Derek - Raymarine - Moderator]

Hi Michael,

In the last test, where the fault still remained even with the wind and the depth disconnected, my suggestion was to disconnect the two seatalk cables from the two seatalk connections on the course computer, ( note each seaTalk connection has three wires, red, yellow and black/ bare/ shield and all three for each seatalk connection mucst be removed) Then make up a new temporary short seatalk cable and connect the SeaTalk control unit to one of the SeaTalk connections on the course computer. If the problem remains, send the control unit and the computer in for investigation and repair.
By using the small test cable for seatalk, we are eliminating any damaged SeaTalk connectors or SeaTalk cables running through the boat, if the Control unit and the Course computer work fine when using the short cable, then there is a damaged cable or connector onboard.

Thanks
Derek
