[CA] [CA11] AR200 vs GA150

[Chuck - Raymarine - Moderator]

Welcome back to the Raymarine Forum Mig888,

It appears that the Raymarine staff to who you have spoken may have misunderstood the device which was being replaced to be a Raystar 150 GPS Sensor rather than a GA150 GPS Antenna. Should the device to have been replaced be a Raystar 150 GPS Sensor, then it would be as simple as had been specified. Unlike the GA150 GPS Antenna which features a coaxial cable and may be interfaced directly to a MFD's GA150 GPS antenna socket, the Raystar 150 GPS Sensor and AR200 Augmented Reality Sensor feature a SeaTalkng/NMEA 2000 communications interface and are as such designed be be interfaced to a spur socket via a SeaTalkng Spur Cable. The AR200 may only be calibrated by MFDs running the latest LightHouse 3 software (v3.11.42 at the time of this response). The AR200 is not designed to use the same mount or cable used by a GA150 GPS Antenna.
