Replacing a joystick

You will need:
• a copy of the original joystick's tuning file (.ecu) on your computer. If you
do not have the tuning file you will need to tune the joystick from scratch
(section B.3).
• the latest firmware revision on all system components. See section 11.0
of Book 65 for firmware updating instructions.
Follow the basic import procedure shown in section B.5.5. Once the import
is complete, perform a sea trial as shown in STEP 9 (section B.3.12).

Updating joystick firmware

In general, system firmware should always be updated using the 'Update
All' utility described in section 11.0 of the Optimus EPS Installation Manual
(Book 65).
If you have a situation in which you feel you need to update the joystick
firmware on its own, please contact Dometic technical support.

Basic import procedure

1. Connect the destination joystick to the network and open its
configuration page with Datalink. If there is more than one joystick on
the network, identify the correct joystick by matching the serial
number shown in the Workspace with the label on the joystick.
Alternatively, you can unplug any other joysticks from the network.
2. Click Import in the toolbar. Use the file browser to find the .ecu tuning
file you wish to import. Highlight it and click Open.
3. You will see the following warning. Click OK to continue.
Figure B-16. Import warning dialog.
4. The dialog box shown in figure B-16 will be displayed. Use this dialog
to set the instance number of the joystick. If you are configuring a
second station joystick, change this instance number to 2. Otherwise,
accept the default. Click OK.
