Do you have sharing turned on in the software?
Yes, I do
In HB units....Waypoints are not transferred from one unit memory to another unit memory ...
Waypoints are read across Ethernet from the unit that physically marked the Waypoint...and displayed on the other unit in a different color ...
The unit that "Marked" the Waypoint, and any unit needing to "Read" that Waypoint must be powered on and "Waypoint Sharing" turned on to be visible on the unit that did not Mark the Waypoint ...

The WP's that are other units but show onscreen have a colored "halo" around them I think it's green IIRC......
Not working..how do I trouble shoot it
Make sure the AS ETH 5PXG has power and is switched on.
If you are seeing at LEAST some of the units online with each other in the network setup tabs, reset your network.
Start up all the units and one by one pluck the AS EC QDE loose from the network while powered up so it "breaks connection" with teh Ethernet.
Do this to each unit.
when all disconnected cut power to the AS ETH 5PXG and then shut down and restart each control head.
Connect all back to the AS ETH 5PXG switch and start each one seeing if they are getting an IP Address assigned in the system status, which usually takes a couple of minutes to show up.
Once all of the units are online, choose which one you will set to "Master" for most of the functions and subscribe to that unit under the indivual settings tabs for what features you want.
Rinse -N- Repeat for any other units.
This should do it, or you have a dead switch or something may be connected wrong.
