E120 Classic N2K GND10 gWind

[Chuck - Raymarine - Moderator]

Welcome to the Raymarine Technical Forum Dan,

It is recommended that you verify that the MFD has been updated with v5.69 E-Series Classic MFD software and if not, that the MFD's software be updated accordingly. It is also recommended that you verify that the GND10 has been updated with the latest software and if not, that it be updated accordingly. After doing so, it is recommended that the system then be tested again. It is recommended that you also verify that the NMEA 2000 backbone is properly terminated.

Please note that this problem has not been previously reported in conjunction with E-Series Classic MFDs other SeaTalkng/NMEA 2000 wind sensing products (ex. i60 Wind, iTC-5, ST70 Instruments w/pod, ST290 system w/wind pod, Airmar Weather Station, etc.). Should the system's components have been updated with the latest software and the SeaTalkng/NMEA 2000 backbone be properly powered from a single power insertion point and properly terminated, then it would be recommended that a NMEA 2000 bus analyzer (ex. Actisense NGT-1-USB w/NMEAReader software, etc.) be interfaced to the NMEA 2000 backbone and that the backbone be monitored for the presence of wind data PGNs after the E-Series Classic MFD ceases updating. The GND10's USB interface will not suffice for such testing.
