EXTERNAL ALARM: The A80614 SeaTalkNG Auxiliary Alarm Buzzer may be used to remotely sound alarms for Axiom/Axiom Pro/Axiom XL MFDs running the latest available Raymarine product software updates. A comprehensive list of alarms supported by the A80614 SeaTalkNG Auxiliary Alarm Buzzer may be found within Appendices A through R of the of the SeaTalkNG Auxiliary Alarm Buzzer Installation Instructions.

NMEA 0183: The NMEA 0183 leads of any NMEA 0183 devices which are presently interfaced to the C-Series Classic MFD's NMEA Cable will need to be disconnected from this cable and will instead be spliced to the corresponding leads of the Axiom Pro/Axiom XL MFD's Power/NMEA 0183/Video Input Cable.

SEATALKNG/NMEA 2000: Should the Data Master C-Series Classic MFD be interfaced as a spur to NMEA 2000 backbone, then the Data Master Axiom Pro/Axiom XL MFD may be interfaced as a spur to backbone. constructed from SeaTalkng networking components via a SeaTalkng to DeviceNet Female adapter cable (A06045).
