![]() I tried it out later in less critical circumstances, and the message did indeed prove spurious. Seemed relatively unlikely since mine is wired, but nevertheless, considering we were at the time in thick fog in the Channel with a faulty AIS receiver and relying 100% on the radar, I decided any alteration to the network stack at that moment might be a bad idea, and hit "Cancel". ![]() It's just that the release date was.what."By 2014"? And in 2020 we don't have even a hint of a product based on the draft standard?)Ĭlick to expand.I didn't mean "interfere with" in the sense of RF interference, rather that the unit only has a single radio network interface so using it for multiple purposes may potentially conflict, or at least increase the risk of misconfiguration.įor example, when I attempted to connect my iPad to it, a dialogue box in the app warned that this might interrupt communication with the radar. I understand it will even involve a standard for radar imaging. (For clarification, OneNet has always sounded like a good standard imho. However, a quantum is on my prospective purchase list and maybe it's just superstition but a wire is just a comforting bit simpler and certainly easier to debug if things do go wrong. Wait! Did someone mention OneNet?*ĭoes this mean I think there will be more issues with Quantum and the wireless link? I don't have any evidence to support that and I'm sure that even those with microwave ovens on board will soon learn not to re-heat pasties in fog. Moreover the marine electronics industry are just forehead-slappingly *terrible* at IP-networking. For the "wifi connection" Raymarine are using a whole stack of general purpose protocols which are vastly more complex than a single-purpose protocol. Click to expand.With AIS, VHF and GPS the way data are sent and received is specifically designed for the purpose.
