No Sirius Weather Hot Page ICON

I have 3 displays with an ethernet hub. Software upgraded to version 3.01.05 as supplied with the Furuno BBWX1 Weather Receiver. There is no Weather Icon as shown in the installation manual. I have tried everything I can think of. Yes; I did follow the instructions exactly. Yes; every display was upgraded. None of the 3 displays shows the correct hot page icon.

Ethernet hub is functional with green lights. All other systems work just fine. The light is flashing green on the BBWX1 also.

Please help!

You will need to add the hotpage. do it like you're customizing your hotpages. Now if you're using Navionics then you will need to convert your unit to C-map. I know of a company in MD that can do this for you. The conversion process will remove your radar heading alignment and tuning setting though. Try www.mid-shore-electronics.com. They will be able to help you. They help me out alot.

Which version furuno echo sounder will work with the LS8000 in-hull transducer. I need to upgrade but the transducer is built into the hull, would be easier just to keep it

I think for this one your best bet would to be to call Furuno tech. directly. They'll be more than happy to upgrade your instrument.

There are two numbers:
Camas, WA 360-834-9300
Denton, MD 410-479-4420

Hope this is helpful.

I am looking at the Sony Sony KDL52NX800 and read where there is/was an upgrade problem from 2.0 to 4.2. How can I find out if the one I want to buy needs this?

In all Sony LCD sets, there is a on screen menu selection that gets you to a page that has a contact number for Sony and the software version that the set has. When you get into that menu, you can call sony and see if the software version is the latest. If it is not, they can send you a memory stick with the updated version and directions on how to do it. If you have a internet hook up with ethernet capabilities, you can hook up a ethernet cable to it and it will allow you to make the software upgrade using the tv's menu to down load it internally.
I hope this helps,

Got a hub genius GH4080SE and trying to connect computers, pls advise what is the steps?

Hardware Setup

1 Find the WAN or uplink port of the Ethernet hub. Typically, it is located on the rear of the unit, and it is often separate from the LAN ports.

2 Connect an Ethernet cable from the WAN port of the hub to either the Ethernet port of the internet modem or, if expanding a network, to an empty LAN port on the existing network’s router, switch or hub.

3 Plug an Ethernet cable into one of the LAN ports on the Ethernet hub and connect the other end of cable to the computer or device that will be added to the network. Repeat for any other devices that will need to be on the network.

4 Power up the Ethernet hub and the computers or other devices attached to it. On the front of the hub will be a series of LEDs that correspond to each LAN and WAN port on the hub. Every port that has a cable plugged into it should have one or more of the LEDs lit that represent that port. If not, check the connections and swap out the Ethernet cable if necessary.
Software Setup

1 Configure the network settings on each connected computer. If you are expanding a network and the network uses DCHP, or dynamic IP addressing, no configuration will be necessary. On networks using static IP addressing or on a new network setup using the Ethernet hub, each computer or device must be assigned a unique IP address. Local IP addresses must use the allowed “private” address pools that will not interfere with internet addresses. Acceptable addresses include 192.168.x.x, 172.16.x.x to 172.31.x.x, or 10.x.x.x. The “x” represents a number that is chosen by the user, from 0 to 254. All computers on the network should share the first three numbers in the address, with the final number representing the individual computer. In a network with three computers, for example, the first could be 192.168.1.1, the second could be 192.168.1.2 and the third could be 192.168.1.3, though the final number does not need to be sequential.

2 Click the “Start” button in Windows, select “Control Panel" and double-click the icon labeled “Network Connections.”

3 Right-click the icon for the Ethernet adapter and select “Properties.” Click on the check box marked “Internet Protocol (TCP/IP)” and press the “Properties” button.

4 Select the radio button labeled “Use the following IP address.” Enter a unique IP address for the computer and the applicable subnet mask. If a router is used on the network, enter the router’s IP address as the default gateway. Press the “OK” button and reboot if necessary.

5 Enable file and printer sharing from the “Properties” dialog for the Ethernet card if files will be transferred between the networked computers.

6 Click the “Start” button, select “Control Panel” and double-click on the “System” icon. Select the “Computer Name” tab and click on the button labeled “Change” to set the computer’s network name. In the “Computer Name” box, enter a unique name for the computer. In the “Member of” section, choose the radio button marked “Workgroup” and enter the workgroup of the network. If setting up a new network, this name can be change but all computers on the network must share the same workgroup name.

7 Verify that all computers can access the network and the Internet if connected.

''!!! WARNING: The switch is not usable !!!''

Unfortunately the show stack isn't showing any results other than it is either a hardware or software fault. I am guessing it is a fault with the hardware as the show version in your first post states "interface Ethernet-controller 4 failed POST POST error status : general error occured".

Ethernet-controller 4 is one if the gigabit ports (poss fibre port), so if you have anything attached to those, disconnect and reboot the switch and see what happens. If that doesn't work, you could try reinstalling the IOS, but at a guess I would say its a hardware fault.

Ais and 1920c Furuno chart plotter

n the system setup, under “UNITS” I set BEARING to “MAG” (magnetic). This will cause the unit to display course / bearing information in relation to the Magnetic North and match magnetic compass readings. It is not the same as True North! One has to be careful with this setting. There are a number of areas where the earth's magnetic field is locally disturbed, sometimes very significantly. Your GPS may not account for it. - again, under “UNITS” I set “METRIC”.
