Hi again guys, finally solved when it's done it looks so easy. My Nexus Multi classic display is connected together with Nexus Wind display (that's probably a most frequent setup). The Log, depth and wind connected to NX2 server. The boat speed through the water was not shown because of the coding C72 on the Wind display was set to ON=means that log transducer is connected to Wind instrument directly. When C73=OFF (means that LOG is connected to the server) all works perfect! Most probably we changed that setting when try to calibrate the wind vane angle.. Who did that and forgot to tell

hi, but my log when installed still gives signals to the server when it rotates, faster the engine faster the blinking rate. Was it the same with yours?

I will check 12.7.1 off course. In my setup there is also a miniplex3 shipmodule, can it be used instead GND10? By the way NX2 server does not communicate to windows PC, as Nexus race software needs FDX server, but NX2 does not have FDX. Maybe there an alternative software? An older version? Where to get such?

Then this is the same C13 parameter, when off = stw. This was clear from a very beginning.

Speed towards waypoint? But what if there is no waypoint?

swapping sometimes can damage electronics.. have you seen it swapped and still working?

hi, readings are 0.00 knt, not "---". I wouldn't look for help if I could solve the issue with reading the manuals.

Hi guys, the paddlewheel was not that dirty, few small seashells that stil let the paddlewheel to rotate perfect, anyway all was cleaned thoroughly and put back. Before putting back of course checked if rotations give signal to server- it transmits signals, depending on rotation speed. Server blinks in log area. Also blinks when moving through warer. But nothing changed. Undocked, disconnected all other wires from NX server, only multi and wind instruments left, still no speed through water data shown. Sad.. Is there way to connect transducer directly to instrument, without server?

so, I did some test again, the boat is at its berth, tiller position in the centre, turned on revers slowly - then led on server starts blinking slow, more speed gives more blinking. Also tried to reconnect the log transducer from/to NX2 server; did check cables nmea in and out; however no boat speed through water on Nexus instrument. As mentioned before a plotter is also connected to the system, so when C13 on multi instrument is on, the SOG is displayed. However if C13 is off, no boat speed. Tried to take off log transducers and clean it, but it sits very tight, decided not touch unti

George, thanks for entering my posts about issue with the boat speed through water. I will check one again which leds are blinking for speed and also if the rate changes at different speeds. bu the way - this is probably a Garmin tranducer GST 43. the boat is fresh purchased I am not absolute sure about it yet. I will try to take it out and clean. The boat is on water, but it looks like the quick exchange to a spare plug is foreseen. I have red on some forums that this operation is not difficult if all is well prepared. What do you think?

but the transducer seem to work, as server gets blinking Led, that should mean that paddlewheel is rotating and giving it's signals. So, probably not a cleaning issue. The boat is on water and we sail she time to time.

hi all, I have silvaNexus multi control instrument and nexus NX2 server and speed transducer. Also depth transducer and nexus wind instrument and GPS ploter all connected. Also Miniplex-3 shipmodule somehow is connected. All is ok, except the boat speed. Speed transducer seems to work as NX2 server gets blinking leds, multi instrument shows depth, other data, but some time ago it stopped showing boat speed through water. The boat is fresh purshased maybe that problem persists for a longer time already but all was functioning well when suddenly the boat speed gone. Once it had returned fo
