If MDS-compliant software is not available for the product and you do NOT want to use the system’s
preferred data source, you must remove any non-compliant products from the system. You should
then be able to select your preferred data source.
Note:
Once you have completed setting up your preferred data sources, you may be able to add
non-compliant products back into the system.
Multiple data source exceptions
With the Evolution system, there are a number of important exceptions to the handling of multiple
sources of certain types of data.
Specifically:
• Heading data — If a non-Evolution source of heading data is designated by the user, the Evolution
system components will combine this heading data with its own gyro and accelerometer data,
and then use the improved heading data. This combined heading data will also be available
to other equipment on the SeaTalkng ® bus.
• Rudder angle data — Where there are multiple sources of rudder reference information, the
Evolution system components will ignore rudder angle inputs from any rudder reference units
that are NOT connected directly to the ACU.
System examples
