A128 lake water temp - Natch - 02-02-17 09:35 PM I have two A series MFDs on my Ranger. Always been a Lowrance guy, but the Raymarine MFDs were installed in the boat when I bought it. After a small learning curve, I actually prefer the MFDs over the Lowrance units on my last boat. I have an A127 at the bow with a CPT 100 Transducer on the TM, which provides me with both 2D & Down Vision Sonar. The transducer also provides me with water temp. At the console, I have an A128 with a shoot through transducer in the bilge for 2D Sonar and a CP200 Module for Side Vision, with the transducer mounted to the jack plate. The CP200 transducer does not provide a water temperature reading and I need it at the console, while running the big motor. How do I add water temp, without adding the CP100 module, which has the water temp sensor?? I can't add another transducer to the unit, so I'm looking for some advise. Thanks in advance, r/ Steve RE: A128 lake water temp - Chuck - Raymarine - Moderator - 02-03-17 11:12 AM Welcome to the Raymarine Forum Steve, I was faced with the same issue onboard my own boat as I also had an in-hull fishfinder transducer and a CPT-200. Temperature data may be added to the system via any of the following methods: - interface an i40 Bidata with a transom mounted or thru-hull instrument speed/temp transducer to the system - interface an i50 Tridata with a transom mounted or thru-hull instrument speed/temp transducer to the system ... the i50 TriData will repeat depth from a128 MFD - interface an i70S MFID and iTC-5 with a transom mounted or thru-hull instrument speed/temp transducer to the system ... the option used onboard my own boat - interface a third party NMEA 2000 transom mounted or thru-hull instrument speed/temp transducer to the system ... no calibration of temperature or speed through water is supported via this option. RE: A128 lake water temp - Natch - 02-03-17 01:10 PM Chuck, Thanks for the multiple options. I'll get back with you when I get this set up done.
