[CA] [CA11] Axion 7 software and function

[lotteroseII]

Two years ago I installed a new i60 wind system and the ev-1 wheel autohelm on my Catalina 34 MKII to replace old ST systems. I never was able to get my ST50 tridata to communicate speed data for wind true. I now have a seatalk to seatalk ng converter that I will install as soon at the weather breaks. Hope it works.

I now want to upgrade with a gps chartplotter. I have been told that the Axion 7 might be right for me because of compatibility and ease to install. Will this MFD upgrade software of my autohelm and wind instruments through wifi? Can the autohelm be controlled by the MFD? What speed value is sent to the i60, the gps value or the ST50 value? I really like the sailing assist software of the B & G Vulcan 7. Anything like this on the horizon for the Axion 7? If so, does it come as a software update or will it have to be purchased as a separate package?

thanks.
