Ais / suddenly does not show on vx2

[Mitchell31]

After an accidental reset of the vx2, AIS-target does not show - while all other is good (plotter, sounder, gps, radar, autopilot working as before).

I am almost sure its not a “digital setup issue”, as it has happened once before (Ais-data suddenly showed up again as some setting was changed…have long forgotten what I did to make it show up). I suspect it is some kind of ordinary user setting, that blocks the display of Ais-data.

How to display ais-data? Can anyone provide a tip, that does *not* relate to port and nmea-settings, but has to do with some ordinary user setting - or combination of user settings...

Thank you.

Ps - all software are latest. The FA50 does send data just fine, when tjecked on Marine Traffic.

If everything else is good, just turn on the "Target Tracking" setting.

Thx - although I cant seem to find a setting phrased like that :-/

Setup the two screens like this...

Thanks - followed your kond guidance - still no reception/display of ais-targets. The fa50 is transmitting, so there must? have been some kind of network change, as I accidentally did a reset. Strange though, that all other data sources is working (gps, sounder, radar, navpilot). Wonder how to check for network setup (nervous, have never tampered with ports and baud…).

Tips highly welcome. Underway wih trusty Perkins 6354 .

Does this look right…

Is the FA50 connected by Ethernet or via 0183?

Solved!!! Baud needs to be set at 38400 for ais to work. Thx all who helped me.
