Why does my Raymarine GPS display not start up?
The display may not start due to a problem with the power supply. Check the following: * Relevant fuses and breakers. * The power supply cable, ensuring it is sound and all connections are tight and free from corrosion. * The power source, making sure it is of the correct voltage and sufficient current.
What to do if my Raymarine E120W GPS shows a 'No Fix' status?
If your Raymarine GPS displays a 'No Fix' status, the issue could be due to several reasons: * Your current geographic location or weather conditions might be preventing a satellite fix. Periodically check to see if a fix is obtained under better conditions or in a different location. * There may be a fault with the external GPS connection. Ensure that all GPS connections and cabling are correct and fault-free. * The external GPS antenna might be poorly positioned, such as being below decks or too close to transmitting equipment like a VHF radio. Ensure the GPS antenna has a clear view of the sky.
How to troubleshoot a 'No Data' or 'No scanner' message on my Raymarine E120W GPS?
A 'No Data' or 'No scanner' message on your Raymarine GPS can be caused by several factors: * Check the scanner power supply cable to ensure it is sound and that all connections are tight and free from corrosion. Also, check the relevant fuses and breakers, and verify that the power source provides the correct voltage and sufficient current. * Verify that the scanner is correctly connected to the display via a crossover coupler or SeaTalkhs switch, and check the status of the SeaTalkhs switch. Also, inspect the SeaTalkhs cables for any damage. * Ensure the scanner pedestal switch is in the ON position.
Why is instrument data missing from some Raymarine E120W GPS displays?
If instrument data is missing from some, but not all, Raymarine GPS displays, it could be due to a SeaTalkhs network problem. Check that all required equipment is connected to the SeaTalkhs switch, verify the status of the SeaTalkhs Switch, and ensure that SeaTalkhs cables are free from damage.
How to fix incorrect target bearing on Raymarine radar screen?
If the bearing of a target on the radar screen is incorrect, the radar bearing alignment likely requires adjustment. Check and adjust the radar bearing alignment.
How to fix a Raymarine E120W touchscreen that is not working correctly?
If the touchscreen on your Raymarine GPS is not operating as expected: * Ensure that the touch lock is disabled. Use the Trackpad to turn off the touch lock on the home screen. * Make sure you are using bare fingers to operate the screen. Bare fingers must make contact with the screen for correct operation; alternatively, you may use conductive gloves. * Calibrate the touchscreen using the setup menus. * Clean and dry the screen carefully, as saltwater deposits can interfere with operation.
What causes a Raymarine fishfinder to show no data source?
If your Raymarine fishfinder displays 'No data source', it could be due to: * A DSM power supply fault. Check the DSM power supply and cables. * A SeaTalkhs network problem. Check that the DSM is correctly connected to the display or SeaTalkhs switch. Verify the status of the SeaTalkhs Switch and ensure that SeaTalkhs cables are free from damage.
Why is instrument data unavailable on all Raymarine E120W GPS displays?
If instrument, engine, or other system data is unavailable on all displays, it means the data is not being received at the display. Check the data bus wiring and connection to the display, and verify the overall integrity of the data bus wiring. Also, check the source of the missing data.
What causes problematic depth readings on my Raymarine E120W?
Problematic depth readings or sonar images on your Raymarine GPS can be caused by: * Inappropriate gain or frequency settings for the current conditions. Check the fishfinder presets, gain, and frequency settings. * A DSM cable fault. Ensure that the power, transducer, and all other cables to the DSM unit are properly connected and free from damage.
