EV-100 and GPS data

[Chuck - Raymarine - Moderator]

Welcome to the Raymarine Forum colbournee,

Based upon the information supplied, the autopilot appears to be communicating with the HDS-7. Although the p70/p70S/p70R/p70RS autopilot control heads are not designed to display latitude or longitude, communications with a source of GPS data has been verified through successful execution of source selection and population of the SOG data item within the autopilot control head. It is recommended that you ensure that your Evolution autopilot components have each been updated with the latest available Raymarine product software updates and a Pilot Factory Reset be performed. After doing so, the Dockside Wizard should be executed, the vessel should then be take out for a cruise within the specified speed to complete determination of the magnetic deviation sensed by the EV-1 sensor core.

Upon completion of the above, navigation (ex. go to cursor position / waypoint or follow route). It should then be possible for the autopilot to enter Track mode.
