3.6 Networking constraints
New a Series, New c Series and New e Series displays can be
networked together and can also be networked to Raymarine’s
E-Series Widescreen displays and G-Series systems. Caution
is advised when networking a New a Series, New c Series or
New e Series to a network containing a E-Series Widescreen
display or when connecting to a G-Series system as there are
networking constraints and restrictions which apply.
General
• Multifunction displays should be connected together using
SeaTalk hs .
• Multifunction displays can also be connected via SeaTalk ng or
NMEA 0183, but not all functions are supported.
• All networked New a Series, New c Series and New e Series
displays must contain software version V4.xx or later.
Note: The New a Series cannot be networked using NMEA
0183.
Master / repeater operation
• Any network featuring more than 1 multifunction display must
have 1 of the displays designated as the data master.
• The data master display will receive data through NMEA 0183
and / or SeaTalk ng , and bridge the data over SeaTalk hs to other
networked displays.
• When networking a New a Series, New c Series or New
e Series multifunction display to an E-Series Widescreen
display or G-Series system the New a Series, New c Series
or New e Series displays must be put into compatibility
mode. Compatibility mode can be accessed from the Set-up
Menu from the homescreen:
Set-up > Maintenance >
Compatibility .
• Any network containing a G-Series system must have the
G-Series (GPM400) set as the data master.
Note: Connected E-Series Widescreen displays and G-Series
system will reset once compatibility mode has been selected.
Legacy multifunction display support (E-Series Widescreen
and G-Series system)
• A G-Series (GPM400) system operating with software version
V4.xx or later will permit the connection of up to 2 New a
Series, New c Series or New e Series displays or 2 E-Series
Widescreen displays or 1 of each (e.g. 1 New e Series and 1
E-Series Widescreen display).
Note: Master / repeater operation applies.
• A network featuring a New a Series, New c Series or New
e Series displays and either an E-Series Widescreen or
G-Series system must be connected using SeaTalk
hs only.
•
An incompatibility message is displayed on-screen when a
multifunction display is connected which is not supported.
Homescreen sharing
• When networked, New a Series, New c Series or New e
Series displays can share homescreens.
• New a Series, New c Series and New e Series cannot
share homescreens with an E-Series Widescreen display or
G-Series system.
Cartography sharing
• The cartography contained on chart cards is always used in
preference to embedded cartography when a chart card is
inserted into a card slot.
• Chart card cartography can be shared between New a series,
New c Series, New e Series, E-Series Widescreen and
G-Series systems.
Radar operation
• New a Series, New c Series or New e Series systems support
the use of 1 radar scanner at a time.
• The data supplied by a connected radar scanner is repeated
to any networked displays.
Sonar operation
• You can connect an external sonar module unit to New a
Series, New c Series or New e Series displays via SeaTalk hs
/ RayNet.
• a67, e7D, e97, e127, c97, c127 models include a 600
W built-in sonar module and the display can be directly
connected to a compatible sonar transducer.
• If connecting an external sonar module unit to a a67, e7D,
e97, e127, c97 or c127 then the internal sonar must be
switched off. From the fishfinder application goto
