Have a TZTouch 2 display connected to a Simrad RF25 rudder sensor, boat came with both devices. Rudder degree value properly displays at zero on Tztouch when centered. But two turns to port displays as 10 degrees and two turns to starboard displays as 50 degrees. But looking at the rudder and the sensor both the ram/rudder moved the same distance in each direction.
I posted about this on a few forums and keep getting responses about calibration and auto pilot but I dont have auto pilot and I think people are jumping ahead.
My question is simple, if you go to the NEMA 2000 sensor page under setup is the TZTouch modifying those values in any way or is that just publishing the messages on the bus? I think the sen. I kind of thought that the Nema screen under setup was just printing everything that was available and not messing with the data at all. Is that right? Or if there really a calibration on the rudder sensor somewhere in the unit. And by calibration I mean how the unit displays degrees of change not what it does with that data.
