Good morning, I would like to know if there is a way to interconnect the MFD A65 to the RS150 GPS sensor? Many thanks for your time.
Welcome to the Raymarine Forum Erik,

Please note that Raymarine has produced two products having very similar product name ... these being only differentiated by the case or the letter used in the product's name. These are the recently retired a65 MFD

and the long retired A65 Chartplotter & A65 Chartplotter/Fishfinder.

Of these, the a65 MFD may be interfaced to a Raystar 150 GPS Sensor. Please click here to view a FAQ addressing how this would be accomplished. However, the A65 Chartplotter & A65 Chartplotter/Fishfinder cannot be interfaced to a Raystar 150 GPS Sensor. The A65 Chartplotter & A65 Chartplotter/Fishfinder were designed for use with the RS12 GPS Sensor (discontinued) and were later adapted for use with the Raystar 125 GPS Sensor (also discontinued). Should you be able to locate a third party GPS Sensor supporting 4800 BAUD NMEA 0183 communications, then it may be possible to interface the third party GPS sensor to the NMEA 0183 input leads of the NMEA 0183 Cable supplied with the A65 Chartplotter & A65 Chartplotter/Fishfinder.
Thank you very much for your time Chuck I will consider your advice.
You're welcome.
