[CA] [CA11] Axiom 7 RV added functionality

[Chuck - Raymarine - Moderator]

Doug,

Q1) I assume I could use a CP-370 for the 50/200kHz sonar?
A1) You could indeed. It is has been the experience of some customers that depth performance of 50kHz/200kHz transducers is often better when using a CP370 instead of the Axiom DV or Axiom RV MFD's internal 50kHz/200kHz processing circuitry, particularly in regions featuring sharp thermoclines such as are commonly encountered on the Pacific coast of the US.

Q2) Can I hook up the legacy Airmar B744 to work with the CP-370 for 50/200kHz
A2) Yes.

Q3) Can I hook up and utilize simultaneously the Chirp/DV and the CP-370 50/200kHz sonar?
A3) Yes.

Q4). The “hows” of doing the networking.
A4) The method of interfacing the CP370 to an Axiom DV MFD are identical to those previously stated for interfacing a CP100 to an Axiom RV MFD. If installing an Axiom DV MFD and considering a transom mounted transducer for the Axiom DV MFD, it would be recommended that a CPT-100 be purchased rather than a CPT-S transducer. This recommendation is based on the ability to get low power high frequency CHIRP conical sonar from both transducers, while additionally getting DownVision sonar imaging from the CPT-100.
