[TG11] Garmin P79S > Raymarine Seatalk
Hello,
We’d like to connect a Garmin/Airmar P79 NMEA 2000 in hull smart transducer to the Raymarine Seatalk network in our current boat? If possible how is it done? Note that I searched through the forum and gained a little incite but not an actual answer. Thanks Ray |

Hello Ray,
Assuming your network is SeatalkNG, not actual Seatalk (which dates from the 1990s and has no relationship to NMEA2000) then yes, you can connect other NMEA2000 devices via a Devicenet-STNG adaptor cable (A06045 or A06075.) Where you might run into issues is calibration: a Raymarine display may not be able to set the Depth Offset in a non-Raymarine-supplied transducer. I don't know whether the calibration software is the same for that as for a Raymarine DST800 Smart type, which you would normally calibrate via an i70S instrument. Regards, Tom Raymarine since 1999.

Please don't PM me asking for direct support, please ask a public question instead so that others can see the question and answer. Forum posts will always be answered before PM requests. |
