Full Version: E80 Interface
You're currently viewing a stripped down version of our content. View the full version with proper formatting.
I'm trying to clarify the specific hardware and software necessary to integrate my iPad (with the Navionics app) and a Raymarine E80. If that is already documented somewhere on this forum, please supply a link.

Otherwise:

1) Does Navionics process the Seatalk data directly or does it need something like iMux to do a Seatalk to NMEA conversion for it?

2) Is there any other hardware or software required in order to upload/download routes and waypoints to the E80?

3) What is the purpose of the Plotter Sync app?

4) Does the Navionics app, alone or with Plotter Sync, provide a real-time instrument repeater function?
As Navionics does not monitor this forum you would be better off contacting Navionics directly..

Hi Jeffc, are you still with us? I hope so. I know this post is aged, but has been bumped a few times for interest level, and its a project I'm working through now. iNavx, in my conversations with them, indicate that their product will interface with a NMEA server (don't think full computer as that's not necessary). This can be an integrated device such as this one from Digital Yacht: http://www.digitalyachtamerica.com/index...-4800-baud

I'll keep you posted on my progress as I set this up.
