4.2  Instrument Software Information

V1R1: Beta version, not used in ordinary production.
V1R2: First production version
V1R3: Upgraded version with added features.

 

Trip log replaces sea temperature on first screen of IS15

Combi.

 

In Locked Course mode the LCD on IS15 Compass has been

changed to show deviation in degrees from locked course.

 

Improved log calibration procedure. Possible to set Log

reading as percent (%) of default value. Log calibration can
be set to same value on identical boats.

 

Boat speed always reads 0.0 at zero speed. (V1R2 may show

- - - at turn on and a ‘residual’ speed value when slowing
down to zero speed).

 

Improved boat speed and wind speed damping.

 

Improved damping of heading displays.

 

Depth transducer remains OFF at turn on if it was set to OFF

while the system was running.

 

Test screens added to Installation Menu to simplify trouble

shooting.

 

Roblink can be turned off and thus eliminate a possible

interference when a single instrument is connected as NMEA
repeater.

 

‘Communication reset’ added. Saves all settings in the event

an anomaly in the system functions calls for a reset.

V1R4: Substitutes V1R3 that contains a bug. V1R3 should not be
used.
V1R5: More features added. Not released, replaced by V1R6.

 

Manual setting (In/Out) of NMEA port added.

 

Wind offset also applies when wind data is from an external

NMEA source.

V1R6: New software to comply with PCB Ass’y Revision H (B
on round heads) onwards. V1R6 is backwards compatible with
previous software and hardware versions.
