[CA] [CA11] Looking to add 2nd display and M232, questions

Welcome to the Raymarine Forum Nick,

The e125 MFD may be interfaced via Ethernet communications to any model of a/c/e/eS/gS-Series MFD and both MFDs should be configured to run LightHouse II v19.03 software. Doing so will support sharing of all system data and resources except for composite NTSC/PAL video. The a/c/e-Series MFDs cannot be interfaced via Ethernet communications to an Axiom / Axiom Pro/Axiom XL MFD. Most will elect to install an a/c/e/eS/gS-Series MFD for use with an already installed a/c/e-Series MFD.

The FLIR M232 Thermal Camera is compatible with both a/c/e/eS/gS-Series MFDs running LightHouse II v19.03 software as well as with Axiom/Axiom Pro/Axiom XL MFDs. However, if seeking to use FLIR ClearCruiseâ„¢ Thermal Analytics associated with the FLIR M232 Thermal Camera, than the FLIR M232 Thermal Camera must be interfaced to an Axiom/Axiom Pro/Axiom XL MFD. This restriction is documented within the ClearCruise Thermal Analytics announcement found here.

There is no need for a JCU with the FLIR M232 Thermal Camera, as it is designed to be controlled and configured via the system's MFDs. The M232 will be connected to the MFD via an appropriate length of RayNet (F) to RayNet (F) Cable. One need simply connect the M232's power cable to a power circuit to supply it with power
