For MDS to be available on your system, all products in the system that use the data sources must
be MDS-compliant. The system will report any products that are NOT MDS-compliant. It may be
possible to upgrade the software for these non-compliant products, to make them compliant. Visit
the Raymarine website (
www.raymarine.com ) to obtain the latest software for your products.
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.
Data sources menu
When a network / system includes multiple sources of the same data type, such as GPS / GNSS
position data, the display will choose the most appropriate source for the data. If you prefer, you can
manually select your own source for the data.
The
Data sources menu can be accessed from the Settings menu: Homescreen > Settings > This
display > Data sources .
Each tab in the data sources menu enables you to view and select your preferred data source for that
type of data. The currently active data source will display its current ‘value in use’. By default data
sources are selected automatically and the source for the data may change depending on conditions.
With the
Manual selection toggle enabled, you can manually assign your preferred source for the
data. Manually selected data sources will not change.
