RE: Satellite signal lost eS7
Hi Kala,

Thanks, those photos show exactly what is going on. The device that I mentioned in my previous message, address 31, that is being listed as the source of GPS data is your Camino-108 AIS: if you look in the Address/Direccion column in NMEA Devices and Messages you will see the Hexadecimal address number 1f, which is 31 in decimal (you can see this in the Calculator app on your PC, if you put it into Programmer mode, or use an online hex-to-decimal convertor.) This proves that the AIS is the source of GPS data that we saw in your first lot of photos.

Your SPX5 autopilot is blocking the manual selection of a GPS data source because it is a little too old to know about data source selection, but if you:
  1. temporarily unplug or power down your SPX5
  2. go to Data Sources > GPS and manually select the eS7's internal GPS as the source
  3. power on or plug in the SPX5 again
your problem should be solved.
