Cannot Get AIS Targets On TZT312

[El Caguamon]

Hi Furuno,

I have the TZT3 and FM4800 radio with a AIS antenna, Connected via Nmea 2000 and both connected to the backbone, currently the only 2 devices on the Canbus. I cannot get AIS targets to show on the screen. I have no auxiliary heading sensor or sat compass. I have done the following:

1) Ensured bottom swipe and AIS targets are turned "ON" on TZT3
2) Time offsets correct and matching in both TZT3 and Fm4800
3) MMSI Entered
4) I/O output on FM4800 set to NMEA 2000 and AIS output turned to "ON"
5) 4800 reflects correct GPS position and matches tzt3

My next step is to put a multimeter on the NMEA200 connection to ensure its receiving power . Any settings or equipment that i'm missing to get the targets to reflect? Very frustrating. Thank you.

Well I solved it. The simple thing is usually always what it is. The can bus fuse was in the wrong slot, no power.... facepalm ....DOH!!!

El Caguamon,

It appears that everything is properly setup, it just seems that the data is not getting there between the units. :think

Are you seeing the FM4800 on the TZT3's Sensor List. If not, then check your NMEA 2000 Network connections again.
