C120 Chartplotter Auto-PowerOFF
C120 intermittenly shuts down during operation. Raymarine advised to update to 4.29, perform factory re-boot after saving waypoints etc to CF chip. ALL of these were done, same results...auto shutdown or reboot.
Had installed Sirius Satellite Weather. Raymarine advised Sirius had an issue that was being worked on, and to disconnect the SR50 receiver. Sirius had no knowledge of a problem. When the Sirius was disconnected, the C120 started fine and within two minutes shut down automatically.
A friend reported several others had reported the same problem.
I smell a rat and need a solution. Any help would be appreciated.

Before you turn on your C 80 or C120
press the first grey keypad near to the powerbottom and than the powerbutton together until you get factory reset.
So you will solve the problem.
Software 4.29 is OK
Either it's not getting enough power on the bus or there may be a problem with the unit or something hooked to it. Remove everything but power and leave the unit on. If it powers off by itself then check your voltage, if voltage ok and the leads are not corroded, send it in. If it does not power off hook things up one by one. Leave it on each time. I've seen GPS's not provided with additional power on the seatalk do this. Even though the E-series outputs power on seatalk they made a revision in this concept and now what you to power the gps externally. That may be the only problem you're having or your seatlk bus is internally breaking down.
