Default Fugawi 4

Hi,
I am using Fugawi 4.1. I used to be able to set a series of route points
and the auto-pilot would follow these without problem.

I installed a Noland Multiplexer, so I could interface my depthsounder
and have depths in the tracks instead of height.

This all works well.

However I now find Fugawi will no longer follow the route with the
auto-pilot.

I tried another Nav Program (OziExplorer) and although the function is
rated 'experimental' it works just as it should.

I have written to Fugawi, but there support is very poor and the contact
staff do not know much about anything ( they even said Fugawi does not use
the Autopilot APB sentence. It does of course and is listed in the manual
and help files. ). I have had so much trouble with this buggy software they
probably consider me a nuisance. I probably should buy something else but I
like the interface of Fugawi and am used to it, I really do not want to
learn another software.

If anybody has a solution or has had this problem I sure would like to
get a cure.

Thanks
Oliver Fleming
