Thx cpn boo. I've been reading stuff like this all day, it's quite simple on paper. Think I need a new connection design

Thanks captainboo, appears that I've got a 21 in your picture but the AIS is connected via two blue ended tee pieces. Looks like I might need a 21. Totally guessing, that's why I'm trying to fined someone to take a look, happy to pay in bottles or green stuff

Many thanks Spirit there is one of these in the network, one of the end blue connectors is blanked off. There are also two blue ended tee pieces in the network. I reseated all of the cables yesterday, maybe the fault is in the converter, or the way I have it wired

I'll answer my own question for the archive. Its an LR 27A 12v

Yep, too long

Thats what I thought, so bought some but way too big

Unfortunately not a coin type cell, its more of a small cylinder call like aa

I did, it only has a slot, no battery, about 25mm x 6mm. Hence the question

anyone got one of these controllers off ebay. I'm trying to find out the battery type for the remote Tia

Checked all connections - were good. Disconnected AIS and it all worked, depth is displayed on plotter. Connected it all and lost depth again, scratched head. Was told to set baud rate on the plotter to 38400, so thought I'd see what happens if set to 4800, and it all works again, plotter shows...
