Nice @Davidasailor26 you did a great job on identifying and it looks like solved this challenge.
Nice
Nice
Just for giggles I tried the update on my old NSS8, and it seems to have worked. The time and date now show properly everywhere they're supposed to. Now if only I could fix the lightning fried NMEA circuitry...You guys are unreal! I have updated to 3.0 appox. 90 days ago. We will give your recommendation a try. You should think about applying for a senior engineer job at Sinrad. Thanks again, Slider
Glad we figured it out. Now hopefully Simrad built the new version properly and we don't go through the same thing on the real GPS rollover tomorrow!Eureka! We installed this version in January and it did not fix the problem. NSS-3.0-46.2.24-28289-r2-Standard-2
Yesterday we downloaded NSS-30-46.2.24-46.2.24-28289-r2-Sandard-2. We installed it today and it fixed the problem! We now get the correct time and tides.
Thanks to all and Dave26
Boooo. I'll break mine out of the basement again tomorrow and see what it says.Bad News, went sailing today, 1st day since the GPS rollover. NO GPS, SOG., auto pilot, chatd. Time and Date! Next move will be contact Simrad again! I AM SURE THIS HAS HAPPENED TO MANY OF YOU. From victory to loss with the rollover!

@Slider - My NSS went out too. Like you said, this time it's not just the date/time, but it couldn't get a GPS fix at all. Luckily, there is a new update. Simrad posted it yesterday (3 days after the rollover), and it's available at http://downloads.simrad-yachting.com/software/index.html?r=1871Bad News, went sailing today, 1st day since the GPS rollover.

Yes, date checks out correct.@Gunni how about date? My Garmin GPS12 works fine except the date in Aug 1999. My Garmin GPS72 survived the roll-over.
