Networking E97+Autopilot+CP470

mburazor,

The 9" and 12" a/c/e/eS-Series MFDs feature two Ethernet NETWORK sockets. As only three of the devices which you have specified have Ethernet communications interfaces, the e97 MFD and the additional MFD may simply be interfaced to one another via an appropriate length of RayNet (F) to RayNet (F) Cable. This connection will permit all system data (except for NTSC/PAL video sources) to be shared between the MFDs.

One of the two MFDs will be configured as the system's Data Master MFD. The Data Master MFD, along with the EV-1 Sensor Core, Evolution ACU, and autopilot control head will each be interfaced as spurs to a powered and properly terminated SeaTalkng backbone. The SeaTalkng web pages of Raymarine's web site include information identifying the networking components and their respective part numbers.
