I am upgrading from an MFDBB / MFD8 system to a TZT2BB / TZT9F.
The TZT2BB has been installed for some time and works really well.
Just installed the TZT9F and am having problems.
The only connection between the two is the Furuno 172.XXX.XXX.XXX network.
Radar and sounder data is coming through fine, but I am having problems with position, COG/SOG and HDG as well as AIS.
The TZT9F can see the various data sources feeding the TZT2BB, but no data seems to come through or it is intermittent.
There is no AIS.
Do I need to connect the TZT9F to the NMEA2k network to get at this data or is there some setting that I have missed?
The TZT9F is a cabin repeater and would need a new N2K cable run if that's the fix.
Thanks for your help.
