NAVPOD ACCESS SO36i

[hstanley01]

I am trying to access the Navpod on my SO36i to install an AIS transponder to the navigation data already present on Narnia .I discovered that I need what I can only describe as a modified allen key to open the Navpod - a security feature i imagine .This key is almost like a "wheel nut lock ". Does anyone know how I can obtain this as I seem to have misplaced mine ?

Just found out that "Navpod" do a tamper proof wrench set - part no TPK 300 .Most Marine electronic hardware stores supply them. It is usually supplied with every NAVPOD but most people misplace/ lose theirs because it gets taken away by the marine electrician . So guard yours jealously .

No need to buy the navpod kit, you can buy a set with different types of security bits from tool or electronics parts shops, or off ebay, very cheaply.

This is like the one I have

Yeah ! Just got one of them from Maplin - An electrical store chain in the UK , England - after much trawling through the internet .
Much cheaper than the real thing too.
