[CA] [CA11] Help on updating a C80 System Please!

[Chuck - Raymarine - Moderator]

Welcome to the Raymarine Forum jbman45,

The C-Series Classic MFDs were an award wining product in their time. Unfortunately, as you have indicated, these MFDs can no longer be serviced by Raymarine's Product Repair Centers. Should the other equipment to which it is presently interfaced be operational, then the easiest way to restore functionality to the system would be to replace the C80 MFD with second hand C80 MFD. You may want to search the Internet auction sites (ebay, Craigs List, etc. accordingly). Those from higher latitudes will typically have seen less operating time and exposure to the marine environment. Unless the system presently features a DSM250 fishfinder sounder module, a second hand E80 E-Series Classic MFD may also be considered as a replacement for the C80 MFD. If electing the latter, care should be taken to ensure that the MFD includes the SeaTalk/Alarm Cable which had been packaged within the E80 MFD's box.
