(DG) Instrument Upgrade - mcrow99 - 03-13-18 10:03 PM

I am have an a750 connected to a EV-100 wheel pilot. I need to upgrade my wind and depth instruments. My thoughts are buying the i70 with depth and wind transducer. Will I be able to connect the i70 to the a750?

Thanks,
Mike

Hi Mike,
Thank you for your enquiry.

Are you referring to a touchscreen a75 when you say 'a750'?

If yes, then the a75 should be connected to the EV pilot through an STng network. The i70s displays will connect to the STng backbone too and so are a simple addition.

Please note that the i70s will not connect direct to wind and depth transducers, the transducers will need to be connected to an itc-5 - which itself is also connected to the STng backbone, the i70s will then be able to calibrate the depth offsets and wind direction which are then stored in the itc-5.

I hope this helps?
regards
