[JH] [JH11] a98 to Axiom upgrade NMEA 0183 AIS

[John - Raymarine - Moderator]

Hello kdrews,

Welcome to the forum. The a98 had NMEA 0183 on the unit but the Axiom 9 unit you purchased now fully networks through Seatalk NG/DeviceNet. From my research on your CYPHO 150S unit it does not have NMEA 2000 on the device and it will need to be converted to make it talk to the Axiom unit.

The company that manufactures the CYPHO also produces an adapter called the NK-80 there is also another company called Actisense that produces one called and NGW-1-ISO-AIS.

With either of these devices you will need to have a properly built Seatalk NG/Devicenet network for them to function is you do not already have one.

Best Regards
John
