[CA] [CA11] wiring a P319 sonar to downision pins in Axiom 9

[petersm]

Hi

Can I wire my airmar p319 transducer to the downvision pins in the axiom sonar plug?

The reason I'm asking is that I have the 9 to 25 pin adaptor cable.

Thanks, Michael

Welcome to the Raymarine Forum Michael,

The transducer product name (ex. P319 B260, B744V, P66, P79, etc.) identifies a family of transducers rather than a single transducer, each of which is designed for a specific manufacturer and fishfinder or instrument product offered by that manufacturer. As such, the transducer's product ID(s) should be used in determining compatibility of the transducer with Raymarine's fishfinding products. The product ID(s) of fishfinder transducers are printed on a tag which is affixed to the plug end of the transducer's cable. Should the transducer have been manufactured by Airmar, Inc. then this transducer's tag may include an Airmar part # as well as the part number of the corresponding customer (Raymarine, Furuno, Simrad, etc.). Should you attach a photo of this tag to this thread and should the photo clearly show all information which is printed on the photo, then a recommendation may be made. Please additionally specify the model of Axiom MFD which you are seeking to interface the transducer to.

I am also upgrading my old C80 setup to a new Axiom 9-RV (E70367-00-NAG).
I have a P319 transducer, E66013, connected to a DSM30 with an 8-pin connector. I might add (or change to) an RV transducer as well next time the boat is on the hard, so will use a Y cable. Which adapter cable fits this application.

Thanks,

Welcome to the Raymarine Forum Joe,

Like other transducers which were designed to be directly mated to the Transducer socket of a DSM250/30/300, the E66013 variant of the P319 transducer may be interfaced to the A80492 Y-Cable.
