[CA] [CA11] Considering Upgrading and need some guidance

[Chuck - Raymarine - Moderator]

Welcome to the Raymarine Forum Jim,

Q. If I replace the E140W with Axiom Pro RVX (16) what components of the existing system will also need to be upgraded due to compatibility?
A. Please click here to view a FAQ addressing replacement of E-Series Widescreen MFDs with Axiom Pro MFDs. Of the items listed, the currently installed Sirius Satellite Weather / Radio Receiver will need to be replaced with a SR200 SiriusXM Satellite Weather / Radio Receiver. While ST70 autopilot control heads may be updated to be compatible with a system running Axiom/Axiom Pro/Axiom XL MFDs, the ST70+ autopilot control head may not be compatible and may need to be replaced with a p70S or p70RS autopilot control head. No indication was made of the model of autopilot course computer wiich is installed on the vessel. While it is quite possibly a SPX autopilot course computer this will need to be verified. Should it be determined to be a SPX autopilot course computer, then it would be recommended that it be updated with the latest available Raymarine product software update prior to removing the E-Series Widescreen MFDs. Axiom/Axiom Pro/Axiom XL MFDs cannot update the software within ST70 products or SPX autopilot course computers. The remaining items may be interfaced to or adapted to be interfaced to Axiom/Axiom Pro/Axiom XL MFDs.
