Auto pilot S1000

[bouttime]

Hello,

I have a S1000 AP and it has preformed pretty well for me over the years. I recently had a Garmin 700 GPS installed at a dealer, since then my AP is acting up or not working. When I activate the “pilot’ button it goes back into “standby” and it has done over the last 2 trips. I have checked power and ground sources, all NEMA1083 key sentences are correct. I turned off the GPS and activated Pilot and immediately gave the message NO GPS, so I believe the are networked together. Also when it randomly drops out of AP there is no buzzer that sounds.

Any thoughts??

Watch your vhf receiver and see if your Lat/Long drops out whenever your AP drops out.

Have you replaced the battery's in your s100 remote lately? They are small triple a and usually don't last long.

found the problem, it appears that my new garmin was wired the same as the last garmin, which put me on port 1 and 2, made the corrections this weekend, sea trail AP works fine
