Axiom w/ Navionics

I just received the Axiom 7 with Navionics charts and have a couple of questions. (I tried searching the forum, so hopefully not repeating!)

1) I understand the feature to connect Raymarine mobile apps to the Axiom is not yet available (according to an answer to a previous post). That being said, are there plans to integrate "Plotter sync" with the Navionics app for Wi-Fi chart updates and the ability to create routes on a mobile device and send to the Axiom? The same way the feature is available for E, C, A, and G series.
The Raymarine website says: "Standard Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connectivity allows connection to the latest Raymarine apps for tablets and smartphones.

2) Can I not connect an i60 Depth display directly to the NMEA 2000/power cord of the Axiom (via a suitable adaptor)? Do I have to create a Seatalk backbone/network, just to connect the one instrument?

Replacing an E-Series Classic MFD(s) with an Axiom MFD(s)

Please note that the Axiom MFDs may not be installed within an Ethernet (SeaTalkhs/RayNet) network which additionally includes E-Series Classic MFDs. As such, should the current system presently feature more than one E-Series Classic MFD, then all of the E-Series Classic MFDs will need to be replaced with Axiom MFDs and/or a/c/e/eS/gS-Series MFDs. Following the release of LightHouse 3 software for a/c/e/eS/gS-Series MFDs, Raymarine’s Axiom MFDs and a/c/e/eS/gS-Series MFDs may be mixed or matched in any combination within an Ethernet network. The Axiom MFDs and a/c/e/eS/gS-Series MFDs are designed to share all system data (except for NTSC/PAL video) with one another via the Ethernet network to which they will be interfaced.

MOUNTING: Raymarine does not presently offer adapter mounting plate/bezel kits to replace flush mounted E-Series Classic MFDs with Axiom MFDs.

POWER: Axiom MFDs are designed be powered via the Power Cable included within the package of the the Axiom MFD. Accordingly, the currently installed E-Series MFD Power Cable will need to be replaced with the Power/NMEA 2000 Cable supplied with the Axiom MFD.

ETHERNET: Should the E-Series Classic MFD currently be interfaced to the system via a SeaTalkhs Cable, then the Axiom MFD replacing the E-Series Classic MFD may be adapted to use the currently installed SeaTalkhs Cable by using an A80160 SeaTalkhs (F) to RayNet (F) Adapter.

RADAR: Please click here to view a FAQ addressing how to add radar features to an Axiom MFD or a/c/e/eS/gS-Series MFD.

SEATALK: Please click here to view a FAQ addressing how to interface products having a SeaTalk interface to a SeaTalkng backbone, to which the Data Master MFD will also be interfaced.

EXTERNAL ALARM: Please click here to view a FAQ addressing how to add an alarm to an Axiom MFD or a/c/e/eS/gS-Series MFD.

NMEA 0183: The NMEA 0183 leads of any NMEA 0183 devices which are presently interfaced to the E-Series Classic MFD's NMEA Cable will need to be disconnected from this cable and will instead be interfaced to a NMEA 0183 to SeaTalkng / NMEA 2000 data bridging device(s) (ex. Actisense NGW-1-ISO-STNG, Actisense NGW-1-ISO-AIS, etc.), which in turn will be interfaced as a spur(s) to the SeaTalkng/NMEA 2000 bavkbone.

SEATALKNG / NMEA 2000: Should the Data Master E-Series Classic MFD be interfaced as a spur to a SeaTalkng / NMEA 2000 backbone, then the Data Master Axiom MFD may be interfaced to this backbone via a DeviceNet (F) to SeaTalkng Spur Adapter (a 400mm version of this adapter has been packaged with Axiom MFDs). Should the SeaTalkng / NMEA 2000 backbone be constructed from third party NMEA 2000 networking components, then MFD may be interfaced as a spur to the NMEA 2000 backbone via an appropriate length (up to 6m) of spur cable from the supplier of the system's NMEA 2000 networking components.

Video Input: The E-Series Classic MFDs supported video input from up to four analog NTSC/PAL video sources. Raymarine’s Axiom MFDs support video input exclusively from IP video sources (ex. CAM210IP, CAM220IP, FLIR M100/M200 Thermal Camera, etc.).

Video Output: Video output is not available from Axiom MFDs.

FISHFINDER(s): Please click here to view a FAQ addressing how to add fishfinder features to an Axiom MFD.

PROFESSIONAL INSTALLATION: While the replacement of this equipment is well within the capabilities of those familiar with marine electronics equipment installation, there will be some cable splicing and cable chasing required. Should this not be within your comfort zone or skills, then click here to locate a Certified Raymarine Installer in your area.

Creating fishfinder features within a system of Axiom MFDs

Raymarine's Axiom MFDs operating with the latest software updates are designed to support multiple fishfinder sounding devices within the system. Axiom MFDs available in any of the following three variants:
- with internal RealVision 3D™ fishifnder sonar circuitry
- with internal DownVision fishifnder sonar circuitry
- without internal fishfinder sonar circuitry

Axiom MFDs are also compatible with the following fishfinding products
- ax7/cx7/e7D/ex7/eSx7 MFDs (following the release of LightHouse 3 software for a/c/e/eS/gS-Series MFDs)
- ax8/eSx8 MFDs (following the release of LightHouse 3 software for a/c/e/eS/gS-Series MFDs)
- CP470 & CP570 High Power CHIRP Sonar Modules
- CP200 SideVision Sonar Module
- CP100 DownVision Sonar Module
- CP370/CP300/DSM300/DSM30 50kHz/200kHz ClearPulse/Digital Sonar Modules

Accordingly, it is possible for a single Axiom MFD to support one or all of the following types of fishfinder technology:
- RealVision 3D™ sonar imaging
- 600W ClearPulse 50/200kHz Fishfinder Sounding
- High Power CHIRP Sounding
- 600' CHIRP (conical) / DownVision Fishfinder Sounding
- SideVision Fishfinder Sounding
- 600W/1kW ClearPulse 50/200kHz Fishfinder Sounding

When creating a system having a single Axiom MFD, fishfinder features be supported within the system as follows:

- RealVision 3D™ Fishfinder Sounder features: Installing an Axiom RV MFD and a RV Transducer(s). Systems including these two items will additionally support the following additional fishfinder sonar features without need for additional sonar components::
----- 600' CHIRP (conical) sonar imaging
----- DownVision sonar imaging
----- SideVision sonar imaging

----- 600W 50kHz/200kHZ ClearPulse fishfinder sonar imaging may be added to the Axiom RV MFD's supported fishfinder features by installation of an appropriate Axiom Transducer Y-Cable to interface both a RV Transducer and an A-Series Transducer or CP370 compatible transducer to the Axiom MFD.

----- 600W 50kHz/200kHZ ClearPulse fishfinder sonar imaging alone may be supported by by the Axiom RV MFD following installation of an appropriate Axiom Transducer Adapter Cable to interface an A-Series Transducer or CP370 compatible Transducer to the Axiom MFD.


- High Power CHIRP Fishfinder Features: Install any model of Axiom MFD and a CP470 or CP570 w/[http://www.raymarine.com/view/?id=12414]compatible transducer(s)[/url]

NOTE: If not intending the utilize the internal and not intending to utilize the internal RealVision 3D™ fishifnder sonar circuitry or internal DownVision fishifnder sonar circuitry of the Axiom RV and Axiom DV MFDs, then it would typically be recommended that an Axiom MFD lacking internal fishfinder sonar circuitry be purchased to reduce the cost of the system.


- 1kW 50/200kHz ClearPulse Sounder Fishfinder Features: Install any model of Axiom MFD and a CP370 (or CP300/DSM300) w/[http://www.raymarine.com/view/?id=12410]compatible transducer[/url]

NOTE: If not intending the utilize the internal and not intending to utilize the internal RealVision 3D™ fishifnder sonar circuitry or internal DownVision fishifnder sonar circuitry of the Axiom RV and Axiom DV MFDs, then it would typically be recommended that an Axiom MFD lacking internal fishfinder sonar circuitry be purchased to reduce the cost of the system.

NOTE: Like Raymarine's a/c/e/eS/gS-Series MFDs, Axiom MFDs are designed to share resources. Accordingly, should one be constructing a system having more than one Axiom MFD and RealVision 3D™ fishifnder features then only one of the Axiom MFDs need have internal fishfinder sonar circuitry.

NOTE: The DSM250 is not compatible with Axiom MFDs.

NOTE: It is not possible to utilize an instrument depth transducer (analog, SeaTalkng, or NMEA 0183/NMEA 2000 Smart Transducer) to support an Axiom MFD's fishfinder features.

Very Old (But Never Installed) P19 Depth Transducer -- Compatible With i40 Display?

April 26, 2017, 11:20 am

I have in my garage a new AIRMAR P19 transducer. The tag on the P19 indicates a manufacture date of 07/2002. I bought it long ago but never installed because my early ~1980 DataMarine depth system just kept on working. The DataMarine display is now on it's last legs. I no longer have the matching ST60 depth display.

Looking at the installation manual for Raymarine's i40 line, I note that the depth transducer input wire colors are the same as those of my old Airmar P19.

Question: Can I use my 2002 P19 for the i40 Depth display -- which I would buy new? I don't need my depth display to integrate with SeaTalk (Although I do have an ST60 speed display and ST4000+ Autohelm head installed). Stand-alone for depth is fine.

Thanks for any insights

Hi Raymarine,

1) What cameras are able to connect to the Axiom MFDs? Would a Go-Pro or 3rd party camera work? I'm currently waiting for my Axiom 9 3D version to arrive and looking to attach a camera to my system.

2) If a camera is able to hook up. Would recording be an option to the SD Slot of the Axiom?


Thank you!

Speed Test with new i70S

I hooked up my new i70S instrument this weekend with the boat now in the water. During the initial setup (dockside with no water movement past the boat), the i70s detected my iTC-5 depth signal just fine but the speed/temp was greyed-out on the display. I opened the iTC-5 panel and saw a continuous light on the depth connection but blinking green lights on the speed/temp (as well as both rudder and wind which currently have no transducers).

Last season I was getting a signal from the speed/temp transducer just fine. Do I need to be under power or under sail during the initial setup for it to be recognized? I would think that even if I'm not getting a signal from the speed because we're dockside I would at least be getting temp.

I'm using an Airmar through-hull speed/temp transducer (probably 10-12 years old).

rudder limit, set uup issue

On our last trip I noticed that the autopilot thought the motors were turned to port when they were actually straight...went to reset them last night using dockside wizard and when it asks you to turn all the way to starboard it gives a warning of out of rudder limit or something like that and exits. It has never done this before and I cannot get it to reset. I have tried the factory reset multiple times and sometimes when I go into dockside wizard it does not ask me to center motors etc....it give me a 30 degee rudder feedback and 10 time limit or something like that and when you let it try to test itself it turns the motor the opposite direction about 5 degrees and stops....it is a evolution 200 system.

Interconnecting old and new instruments--a few questions

Thanks for approving my registration!

I have a 32 foot sailboat with the following configuration:

Autopilot:
Type 100 course computer down below
ST6000+ instrument at pedestal pod
Type 1 belowdeck Linear Drive
This system continues to work quite well and would like to keep it.

Instrument
ST60+ Tridata at pedestal pod
-Depth transducer directly connected
-Speed/temp transducer directly connected

New Non-Raymarine chart plotter/Radar with NMEA 2000 as well as NMEA 0183 capability at the steering pedestal.

Right now the St6000+ is interconnected with the ST60+ Tridata via a ST1 cable at the pedestal. The only real interfunctionality this appears to provide is power and the ability to control backlighting together.

I would like to feed the depth and speed data from the ST60/ST1 device to the chart plotter.

I would also like the GPS chart plotter to be able to provide steer-to-waypoint instructions to the pilot on occasion.

I purchased an ST1 to STng converter with an STng to NMEA 2000 cable and have not installed it yet.

I've searched and read lots of posts on this forum and am still not quite sure what connections to make. In general, what are your best cabling recommendations for the pilot and instrument?


Specific Questions:

1) My NMEA 2000 backbone has 12V power injected at the midpoint. When connecting the ST1 to STng converter, and then connecting the STng to NMEA cable to the NMEA backbone via T connector, do I need to also install the STng power cable, or is that redundant to the NMEA power?

2) Do I need to modify the ST1 device power wire as well? I have read here that one may need to clip the power lead in the ST1 cables in these situations.

3) Finally, if I need to use NMEA 0183 to connect autopilot to chart plotter, can I use the NMEA 0183 terminals on the back of the ST6000+ or would I need to run a wire to the course computer down below?

Thanks!!

I have a 2014 Striper 220 DC with Etec 225hp, rotary steer soon to be changed to hydraulic steer. (New to me as of last week). Currently have a Lowrance HDS7 Gen 2, 83/200hz transducer and a 3G Lowrance Radar.

I want to add a second MFD and autopilot. Everything I have read along with its capabilities points me to Raymarine autopilot. I like the redundancy of screens and transducers.

Questions;

1) If I bought a Raymarine e series 9 or 12 and a EV100 or EV150 can I wire them into my existing Lowrance NEMA backbone without any issues between both Lowrance MFD and Raymarine MFD?

2) Will the transducers from both be ok so long as they are mounted a distance from each other?

3) If all is ok what parts exactly do I need to order to make this happen.

Extending a passive GPS antenna cable

Unfortunately, Raymarine no longer offers the E36011 10m Passive GPS Antenna Extension Cable (applications include AIS950, AIS650, AIS500, RC435, RN300, and RC320). If seeking to extend the cable of a passive GPS antenna, it is recommended that a cable extension up to 10m constructed from commonly available marine grade RG58 grade cable and that it be terminated with TNC connectors (one male and one female). It is also possible that some third party marine electronics manufacturers may offer extension cables terminated with these connectors.

Issue when following a route on my E70275-NAG

I'm having an issue when following a route on my newly installed E70275-NAG MFD.

Please see video here:
https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B6bsVV...3djZFVoWGs

I have a very simple route created, it’s named “River South”, the first waypoint is at the end of my dock named “River South 1”. Sitting at the dock, I attempt to “Follow Route”, the system asks if I would like to engage pilot at waypoint “River South 1”, the correct waypoint. After clicking no, the system starts to wait for me to near waypoint “River South 1”, even though I never move the boat, the system then advances to waypoint “River South 2”, waits a bit, then to waypoint “River South 3”. It sits on waypoint “River South 3” until I tell the system to stop following.

This is very bad, especially if the pilot is engaged!!

I have the latest updates installed and my system consists of the following components:

E70275-NAG - eS98 9" MFD w/Navionics
T70243 - Quantum 18" w/10m Power / Data cables
T70156 - EV-200 Auto Pilot Kit
M81120 - Raypilot Type 1 12V Pump
E70099 - ACU-200
E70096 - Evolution EV-1 Sensor Core
E70329 - P70RS Autopiot control head (rotary)

Please help.

Thanks,
John

EV-150 electrical Issue

I just spent the last 2 days installing a Evolution EV-150 Autopilot (EV1, ACU-150, p70Rs), and am finishing up all the connections. I have run into one electrical issue I am not sure how to resolve.
My initial Raymarine system consisted of the following:

2 e7D MFDs,
Digital Radome 4Kw
Raynet Network Switch
Seatalk ng 5-Way Connector.
There is a backbone cable from the 5 way Seatalk connector to the engine and gauge string, which are all NMEA 2000 connections.

I installed a second 5-way Seatalk connector and attached all the Autopilot components to it. I installed a backbone cable from the first 5 way connector to the second in order for the MFDs to see the Autopilot. Both my MFDs are powered via a fused toggle switch. Currently the p70Rs screen only turns on when the ignition switch is on and powering the Seatalk backbone. I did connect a power cable to the backbone that wasn’t switched, but I then got a double electrical feed to the backbone. Is there a way to get the data from the MFDs to the Pilot controller without a second source of power? Can I block certain pins on the backbone cable from connector #1 to connector #2 so that only data is transferred? I would like to view my Pilot controller for setup without having to turn my ignition switch on.
Thanks for any suggestions.
