No luck :( The CP180 will NOT take data into port 1 or 2 no matter what. To make matters worse, the cabling goes through the pedestal and winds all over to the chart table. Taking the splice apart would be a project.
I think I am going to cough up the $18.00 and get another data cable to test with. Someone asked about the WiFi link – here you go: http://www.yakbitz.com/ https://www.ebay.com/itm/NMEA-to-WiFi-BRIDGE/182598371832?hash=item2a83b609f8:g:Ab8AAOSwqfNXlsfL <https://www.ebay.com/itm/NMEA-to-WiFi-BRIDGE/182598371832?hash=item2a83b609f8:g:Ab8AAOSwqfNXlsfL&vxp=mtr> &vxp=mtr Prices went up a bit, but still a deal. Mine works great. I can see AIS on my iPhone and iPad with this just fine :) Also I can bring any extra laptops from home and get the data there too.

I keep forgetting to test out my WiFi module on my AIS. I know it is transmitting, but the app to display AIS is on the iPad which usually stays in the house. My Navionics app on my phone does not show AIS. How old is the antenna cable?

Wouldn’t be a boat otherwise. Thing one is I cannot get the CP180 to display AIS targets. It is driving me nuts. It even went back to S-H and that didn’t help. More to come, I got a diagnostic mode setup from them to try. The other thing is out of my 3 VHF antennas, the AIS only likes the masthead one. The other two report back as bad antennas. They have been on there a long time, maybe they are. Need to get a meter on those things. On the good news side the $30 or so Wifi link works GREAT. My iPhone and IPad both show all the data over the wifi and I can see AIS targets on both :) That thing is the deal of the century.
