Welcome to the Raymarine Forum Craig,
As both your MFD and Vesper WatchMate Vision2 smartAIS Touchscreen Transponder features a NMEA 2000 communications interface, these products may each be interfaced as a spur to a powered and properly terminated SeaTalkng / NMEA 2000 backbone to support communications between them. Should the backbone be constructed from Raymarine's SeaTalkng networking components, then the MFD would be interfaced to spur socket within the backbone via an appropriate length of SeaTalkng Spur Cable. The Vesper WatchMate Vision2 smartAIS Touchscreen Transponder's NMEA 2000 communications interface features a DeviceNet (M) socket. This socket may be adapted with an A06082 SeaTalkng (M) to DeviceNet (F) Adaptor which in turn may be interfaced to spur socket within the backbone via an appropriate length of SeaTalkng Spur Cable.
