[CA] [CA11] Yamaha F70 to Axiom7

[Chuck - Raymarine - Moderator]

Welcome to the Raymarine Forum asonofsam,

As indicated within the referenced thread, those with Axiom MFDs and compatible Yamaha engines will achieve the greatest level of engine integration / features when the Yamaha app and Yamaha's NMEA 2000 Gateway (6YG-8A2D0-00-00) have been installed onboard. The Yamaha app is not compatible with Raymarine's ECI-100. Proper interfacing would required that a powered and properly terminated Command Link / Command Link Plus backbone be installed to which the engine and Yamaha NMEA 2000 Gateway have been interfaced as spurs. The MFD will similarly be interfaced a spur to a powered and properly terminated SeaTalkng / NMEA 2000 backbone which has been constructed from SeaTalkng networking components. Please click here to view a FAQ addressing how a simple backbone may be constructed using SeaTalkng networking components. The MFD and Yamaha NMEA 2000 Gateway will then each be connected as spurs to this simple backbone.

While other supported apps for MFDs running LightHouse 3 software may be downloaded here, the Yamaha app will be accessible after having selected that the Engine Type is Yamaha within the MFD's Boat Details.
