[CA] [CA11] Mercury Smartcraft to a78

[PhilC]

Chuck thank you for your help in locating my topic.

I replaced the inline terminator with a NMEA "T" and engine data, including fuel economy, does display on my a78. :-)

Last week I confirmed I am receiving GPS data as well and was able to see the same on my Level 2 Mercmonitor. Still no fuel economy figures, so that problem is on the Smartcraft side and I've reached out to an expert regarding that.

In my case, the inline terminator was the problem, as none of my Smartcraft devices displayed on the device list until after I replaced it with a Raymarine "T". For verification, I reinstalled the inline terminator and all none of my Smartcraft devices displayed on the device list. I don't know if I received a defective inline terminator or what, but everything works on the network with the "T" so I'm happy!
