Arno, thanks for the reminder to check on software updates. I looked at the history and the update you must be referencing was in February 2015 so should have been done on my 2016 system. But I’ll

Many thanks Arno - will study and discuss with my guru. Peter Peter Forbes The Old Rectory Farnham Blandford DT11 8 DE 07836 209730

Yes Scott correct on both points. We have the 150 and successfully reprogrammed. And we had a software option to change the transmit to silence mode which we no longer have. Porter McRoberts S/V

Porter, You have the GP-150 and he successfully reprogrammed it? For the FA-50, I always had the hard switch. My understanding was that the software “silent mode” was not available on the

We just had furuno Brisbane reprogram both the GPS and the AIS. Interesting note. No longer to silence the AIS using software, which was important to us on rare occasion. The tech gave me the wiring

Myfuruno gp 32 gps and my furino chart plotter have gone to May 2002 date. Position is OK on both as I have external aerials. ENL the NZ distributors for furuno say the date cannt be corrected and

Peter, This is the schematic diagram with all the parts. Be aware that I have two Furuno course computers and the diagram shows only one as there can only one be active at a given moment. Cheers, Arno

I talked to Furuno and they provided me with the suggested 2.02 software for the AIS transceiver (enclosed). I did the update and it is working again as usual. For the GP150 (Not the DUAL) they are

Scott, I paid about 10k $ for everything together. I did however manage to get some of the toys at good prices on eBay. That takes patience. I'm working on the rollover bug (see other thread). There

Joerg, Did you update the Course computers to the latest firmware. They added a lot of sailboat-stuff in the more recent firmwares. Regards, Arno

Arno, Just curious - how much did that entire system cost you? Which radar do you have? We have the Navnet VX2 so perhaps our radar is older and won't work with the TZ2. Ours works reasonably well

Bill, I have the relevant files for the devices I have onboard. The issue is that I cannot connect to my GP-150 through the Furuno update software, even though I have been able to connect using

The following file may help: GPS Rollover on January 2, 2022 – FURUNO.pdf I have all of the available Furuno software upgrades and instructions on my website for the following Furuno models: FA50

I successfully updated my FA-50 AIS. Had to make a crossover ethernet cable since we don't have a hub onboard and the tiny shops on the remote South Pacific atolls are out of fresh vegetables and

Hello Joerg, Since we got these sails we never had any problem furling them downwind or on broad reach. The only problem that can occur when unfurling is that the top of the first batten gets caught

As a sailmaker, I hope that your Elvstrom representative is local and can sort out any issues you have in person. When adding battens to a furling mainsail, we are eliminating leech hollow somewhat or
