[CA] [CA11] replace C80-help

[Chuck - Raymarine - Moderator]

jbodell,

Q1. If I decide to go Axiom 7 DV instead, is it the same adapter for the transducer?
A1. Negative. Should the existing transducer's cable have a plug which was designed to be mated directly to the DSM's Transducer socket, then using the A80485 Transducer Adapter will permit the Axiom DV MFD to display the same type of 50kHz / 200kHz sonar imaging as had been provided by the DSM.

Q2. Are the same interface components needed for a Raymarine VHF radio as specified previously in this thread?
A2. Yes.

Q3. Do they make a C80 to Axiom 7 adapter bezel? If so, part #?
A3. Negative. Raymarine only offers C80 to Axiom 9 Adapter Plates.

Q4. In both axiom 7 and 9 configuration, how can I connect my above T-Top GPS antenna to either unit?
A4. The currently installed model of GPS sensor has not been specified within your thread or subsequent posts. Should the currently installed GPS sensor be a Raystar 125 GPS Sensor, then an E22158 SeaTalk to SeaTalkng Converter Kit and D244 SeaTalk Junction Block will be required. The Raystar 125 GPS Sensor's Cable will be spliced to an appropriate length of SeaTalk Cable having a molded press-fit 3-pin plug. To do so,
- the RS125's red and green leads will be spliced to the red lead of the SeaTalk Cable
- the RS125's yellow lead will be spliced to the yellow lead of the SeaTalk Cable
- the RS125's brown & black/bare leads will be spliced to the shield/bare lead of the SeaTalk Cable
The cable assembly's molded press-fit 3-pin plug will be inserted into the socket of a D244 SeaTalk Junction block. The SeaTalk to SeaTalkng Converter Cable's molded press-fit 3-pin plug will also be connected to the aforementioned D244 SeaTalk Junction Block. The SeaTalk to SeaTalkng Converter Cable's yellow plug will be connected to the color coded SeaTalk socket of the second SeaTalk to SeaTalkng Converter.
- The MFD will be interfaced to one of the spur sockets of the SeaTalk to SeaTalkng Converter via an A06075 39.4in (1.0m) DeviceNet Female to SeaTalkng Spur Cable
- The SeaTalk to SeaTalkng Converter will be powered from a switched 12VDC power circuit using the SeaTalkng Power Cable supplied with the SeaTalk to SeaTalkng Converter Kit unless the aforementioned E70196 VHF NMEA 0183 to STng Converter Kit is also installed. In the case of the latter the SeaTalk to SeaTalkng Converter block included with both of these kit will be joined to one another with an appropriate length of SeaTalkng Backbone Cable.
