Es98 Tranducers

bbistis,

Q1. Sorry, but I just noticed the very last question in my original post was unanswered. Perhaps I was unclear, so I'll restate... should I choose not to go with the DST800, but rather just an ST800, can I get simple depth readout (digital) on my es98 display from the CPT-S as well as sonar imagery?
A1. Yes.

Q2. my old system had a SiTex MDA-1 class B transceiver AIS connected to my old c80 via the high speed input. Can I connect this AIS to my new es98 similarly?
A2. Yes. As the MFD will not be transmitting data to the AIS transceiver, I would recommend interfacing the 38400 BAUD NMEA 0183 output of the AIS transceiver to the Port 2 NMEA 0183 Input leads of the MFD's Power/NMEA/Video Input Cable.
