[CA] [CA11] In hull transducer/ instrument recommendation

[Chuck - Raymarine - Moderator]

Welcome to the Raymarine Forum Neil,

Q1) A new in-hull transducer that would be compatible with the i40 depth
A1) Unlike the i50 Depth &Tridata instruments and iTC-5, the ST40 Depth & Bidata instruments as well as the currently sold i40 Depth & Bidata instruments are not suited (insufficient power output) for use with an in-hull transducers. The ST40 Depth & Bidata instruments as well as the i40 Depth & Bidata instruments must be interfaced to a thru-hull or transom mounted instrument depth transducer.

Q2) a new in-hull transducer and new depth display that would be compatible with my existing St instruments
A2) It is recommended that an i50 Depth instrument display along with an E26001-pz P79 In-Hull Depth instrument transducer be used as a replacement for the ST40 Depth instrument. The SeaTalk cable which is presently connected to the i40 Depth instrument may be unplugged from the instrument and connected to a D244 SeaTalk Junction Block. The A06047 SeaTalk Adapter Cable would then be used to interface the i50 Depth instrument to the D244 Junction Block.
