I have an e127 and a smaller Axiom MFD. The e127 is the master and they are running LH3. Is it possible to have the power of the slave MFD turn on and off with the master? I feel like it should be able, but have not found the option to enable it.

[DG11] St60 and itc5
Hi, I am having a bit of trouble finishing this. The goal was to expand my system. Now it is just to get the original ST60 displays to work again.
The ST60s and the AP(SG2) worked just fine until I put the ITC5 in. Now the speed doesn’t register. I didn’t think too much as it was on the hard. However after launch, it still does not work with the ITC5. Getting annoyed, I plugged in the compass to the ITC5, now it and the depth work, but the wind and speed flash where before it was just speed flashing.
I read somewhere that the flash could be because of a ground? To take a jumper from a working instrument to the non-working? I will try that later.
The AP has been OFF this whole time. I am going to remove the compass transducer. At that point:
Q1 why are two out of three working fine? Should jumper the -0v from the speed to the wind?
Q2 why did introducing the compass make the wind flash?
Q3 I will remove the Axiom and terminate at the ITC5, then it should be just like when it was working before the ITC5 and SeaTalk converter sending the signal to the these daisy chained displays, right?
The only other thing is there is a data running from the AP Display/head back to the SG2. It was/is powered by the other displays, but no data until the SG2 is powered on. Since it is dead until the SG2 is powered, I am ignoring it.
Diagram attached. Thanks, Joel

Trouble with SeaTalk connectors
I am having a new problem with SeaTalk ng connectors. I have plugged/unplugged these connectors previously with no problems whatsoever, but in the process of installing a new system with some new/longer backbone cabling I have had a helluva time with unplugging newly installed cabling from my 5-way connectors and T-connectors. They install easily enough, and the system has even ops checked good, but when disconnecting those same connections they simply won't pull out no matter what. Perhaps I should carefully lubricate the small o-rings on the cable connector end before inserting? If so, wondering if there is a recommended lubricant or process? This is all I can figure to do. Thanks for any advice! A search of the internet for similar complaints came up with nothing...

[TG11] B260 transducer - early failure?
Can somebody HELP before I buy another transducer. I have an old head unit but I still love it, it is an L1250. I buy a B260 thru-hull transducer and they seem to go out real easy or my unit reads 0.0ft. Once I replace the transducer it seems to work AWESOME for a year or so then goes out and reads 0.0ft. What am I doing wrong and why is this transducer so particular? Is there somehow I can clean it and it will work again?

[TG11] Axiom network details ?
I'm setting up a multiple Raymarine electronics and need some help - my new to me boat came with a Raymarine Axiom 12 RV MFD and Quantum radar (wireless via bluetooth) so it didn't have a network.
I've gotten an additional Axiom 12 RV , Quantum 2 Doppler radar, RS150 GPS sensor and want to add a NMEA2000 VHF w/AIS (SH GX2400?) and a NMEA 2000 capable stereo as well, so I need to network all these.
I'm going to get a Raymarine HS5 ethernet hub but would like to know the best way to network these and the specific cables needed.
For the MFDs which model # Raynet cable would I run to the HS5 hub ?
And do I only run one MFD to the HS5 hub and the other to the SeatalkNg backbone ?
The Quantum 2 radar I'd prefer to run the Raynet wire rather than use the Wifi - do I run the Raynet wire to the HS5 hub or one of the Axiom MFDs ?
The RS-150 GPS antenna runs to the SeaTalkng backbone, I assume?
The RV-100 transducer goes to the master Axiom MFD ?
And the NMEA2000 stereo/VHF, assuming they are not Raymarine, go to the SeaTalk network via SeaTalkng to NMEA2000 adaptor cables ?
Thanks in advance for guidance, I would like to place an order asap for the correct cables.

[TG11] Can't connect to radome over Seatalk HS
My pair of Axiom 9 MFD's have lost connectivity to the radar radome. The radome is connected to a SeaTalk HS switch which also connects to the DM MFD. The port the radome is connected to on the switch has a green link light which blinks with activity, leading me to believe a) the radome has power, and b) there is good layer 2 link to the radome. The MFD can connect to other devices on the Seatalk HS network. Any ideas?

[TG11] safe transfer of logbook when replacing RC530
I am running Raymarine from A-Z and it runs fine since 2001. The two main screens are RC530 and RC72 L and I use all the ST60 tridata ST6000 Autopilot and ST60 WIND
I have just bought a second hand RC530 (mint condition) to replace the RC530 that I have had by the helm since 2001.
I have taken out the “tired” RC530 and the log is still displayed so I have no major worries.
I want to I reassure that the “replacement” RC530 adopts all log data "on the boat" . It would be said if I suddenly get the log from the replacement unit or worse loose my electronic log.
Can anybody tell me what steps I have to take so that my LOGBOOK (elecronic 9500 NM) does not gets replaced or destroyed) ?
Thank you in advance!

[TG11] Two i70
Currently have one i70, iTC5 and e95, p70, SPX30, i50 (repeater), i60 (repeater).
I have a second i70 I’d like to connect. Will the settings in existing i70 be reset, or would second i70 assume the settings of the first? Are settings for transducers stored in iTC5 or i70?
Thank you!

[TG11] A65 Software update
Hello, I have a Raymarine A65 and I am unable to find where to download the software update for this unit.
I could find some downloads under the below link address:
https://www.raymarine.eu/service-and-sup...assic.html
But I read it's applicable only for: A Series Multifunction Displays (A50, A50D, A57, A57D, A70, & A70D)
Also, what do I need to connect the A65 to my PC to download tracking data etc from the Raymarine device?
Thanks

[TG11] E120 depth recording
Hello - we have a Raymarine e120 fully integrated system circa 2006, inclusive of a 50/200khz sounder transducer. We wish to record depth continuously and save to the CompactSD card. Is this possible? It seems that it can only record depth with each waypoint. I wondered if there might be a software update or additional unit to buy that will record depth? Many thanks.

I recently sent my SPX30 in for a software update. After re-installing I cannot complete the dockside commissioning. After manually centering the wheel and then setting port/starboard limits all is good. It passes this part, 28 degrees. The auto pilot takes control and and fails. Error message is “task failed - values too close”.

[DG11] AIS transeiver advice for e120
Hello - we have a fully integrated e120 system circa 2006. We have AIS receiver capability. We'd like to upgrade to an AIS transceiver. So, is there just a 'receiver' box we can add to our system? Or do we need to be a new transceiver box?
Also, I'm not actually sure how we are currently receiving AIS - eg which antenna is being used, which box under the dash is the AIS, etc but its all integrated into the e120. We have two tall white radio antennas (at least one must be the VHF), a small white domed unit which i think is the DGPS, and another short black antenna which is I think a Leica differential receiver for our Simrad heading sensor.
It may be obvious that we have just purchased a boat with a full suite of Raymarine kit but we've got no local support where we're situated! Any advice welcome. Thanks.

[DG11] Power issues with my Dragonfly 7
Having trouble with my Raymarine Dragon Fly 7 graph on my 16ft boat. I have it wired with an inline fuse with heavy wire directly to the starter battery that has the 40hp motor, bilge, and lights running on it. Problem is, every time I throttle up or down I lose power to the graph. It turns back on when the motor is off or idle.
I don’t have room for another big battery but would like to know if there is a more powerful starter battery anyone can suggest that would solve the issue. I found some small batteries that could fit that are suggested for kayaks but would like to avoid another battery if possible.
Any suggestions or ideas that would fix the problem?

[DG11] connection to Furuno radar
I have recently purchased a Raymarine Axiom MFD and would like to connect my radar to it as I understand on reading the documentation that the Furuno radar model 1621 (which I already have installed on my boat) outputs NMEA 0183 data. I thought that all I would need is a device to convert NMEA 0183 to either NMEA 2000 or SeaTalk (which Raymarine use) to connect to my Raymarine device but I have been told that it may not be as straightforward as that and may not even be possible depending on what the output from my Foruno radar gives. Do you have any experience of doing this and if so, could you let me know what I would need to achieve this please.
