[CA] Replacing Pathfinder Radar and Displays

[shay]

I am sending an attached diagram of my intended Raymarine system. Please review and let me know if I need to make changes.

Q1. Should I leave the power connected at the Course Computer for the lower helm and do away with the power insertion at the Sea Talk1 Junction Box at the ST6001+?

Q2. Is the A06049 power cable shown in the upper helm drawing sufficient to supply power to both the “Upper Helm Seatalk1” and SeatalkNG networks?

In a rare occasion I might want to only operate the lower helm MFD.

Q3. As drawn will I be able to see radar at the lower helm eS97 without the upper helm eS127 being turned on?

Q4. Which MFD would need to be the Data Master?

Q5. Is there any advantage to connect the Slave MFD to the SeatalkNG network?

Q6. Should I connect the 400G NMEA1 output to the lower helm MDF (eS97) NMEA input in order to provide Fast Heading Data for use with MARPA?

Thanks for the help,
Shay
