[CA] [CA11] RV-212 wiring to Axiom E70369-03-LNC

Armleg,

Q. Can we plug (after using the Y -Cable A80478) directly to our Axiom and start using the 3D sonar? I see the 25 pin transducer connector is free on the back of the Axiom.
A. The Transducer socket of the E70369 Axiom 12 RV MFD which you have identified is indeed designed to accommodate interfacing either a single RV transducer or thru-hull RV transducer pair (via the A80478 RealVision Transducer Y-Cable (included with the RV transducer pair) which you have identified) to the MFD. The Y-Cable will connect to the port and stbd RV transducers and to the RV transducer cable which in turn will be interfaced to the MFD's Transducer socket.

I too would recommend keeping the CP370 w/1kW transducer interfaced to the system to support fishfinding in waters deeper than can be supported by the RealVision transducer pair. Please additionally note, that it will then be possible to operate all supported sonar imaging (50kHz, 200kHz, 3D, DownVision, high frequency CHIRP conical, and SideVision).
