Raymarine self compatibility
John Proctor wrote:
On the issue of your scanner compatibility: 1. The C User's manual has information regarding serial numbers which are compatible, non-compatible or need upodates. 2. The C user's manual is available online from the Raymarine web site. 3. What ever happened to caveat emptor? If you verified compatibility with a Raymarine dealer and he said it was ok then you have a grievance with that dealer. Otherwise I'm sorry but the information was available for making a correct decision. You must therefore accept responsibility for your dilemma. If we want compatibility for everything that has been manufactured in the past boy we will not progress too fast. BTW Furuno has the same probnlem with older scanners not working with their new NavNet dispalays as well so Raymarine is not alone. From someone who sells and installs this stuff. Wow... I did not mean to start such a big flame and fuss... To Larry: in Italy we used to say that if you got a Fiat assembled on Monday you were in trouble. When was your last Raymarine radome built? Mine was built on a Friday: it works well but is not compatible with something that was built the next Monday :-) To John: I already wrote that I accept responsibility for my dilemma. Namely at first sight I misunderstood the odd way of "part numbering" assumed by Raymarine and when I understood it, it was too late. Still I think that this "non-compatibility" issue comes out too often and should be dealt more fairly by the manufacturers... IMHO Daniel |
