[DG] [DG11] What is an RL80C?

[Derek - Raymarine - Moderator]

Hi Steve,

The RL80C is a radar only display, it can be used to repeat chart information from a chart variant of the RL80C when connected via HSB network.

There is a version of the RL80C, referred to as the RL80CRC, this unit has a chart door on the front and so is also a chart master unit which can be used to display chart information directly without connection to other displays.

There are two chart card slots, which enables the display to show cartography from either chart card, this eliminates the need to eject a chart card and reinsert a new one once the area of coverage is exceeded.

Note that these units only accept CMAP chart cards and the currently available CMAP chart cards contain too much information to be displayed, only current local area chart cards can be used.

I have attached a copy of the handbook
