I just had a very complex 4 MFD, radars, Sirius, 2 transducer, autopilot, etc, etc system installed. Sirius is on the NMEA 2000 net, but does not have the antenna hooked up yet.
When I bring up the 2 helm screens the second to boot gives the channel 1 not available message which I can’t dismiss. That screen is unusable and at some point reboots on its own. In 5 days of the system being “up”, I’m seeing 2-3 reboots on one of the 3 “on” MFDs before the system “stabilizes” and stays up. Reboots seem to be caused by a lost heading Sedona or lost chart master. This sure smells to me as a network issue.
Multiple questions - first is this due to Sirius not having its antenna connection?
Second - how do I see what “channel 1” refers to?
Third - is there a detailed event log somewhere th more information?
Fourth - other than waiting for the dealer to come back next week - how do I go about debugging the network?
