Ok I am a Newbie here.
I have been run Macs for the last 20 years and have been looking at bring them aboard Ocean Dove to integrate with the Nav equipment I have aboard. I have just started to install a Raymarine X-30 core pack autopilot and ST70 control head. I have ST 60 speed log, depth, and wind, C 70 chartplotter at the nav station (backup) and C80 chartplotter at the steering stand. I have the Demo of the MacENC software, but there are a number of question as how the software will integrate with my Raymarine system.
What interface do need between Macbook Pro and the Raymarine SeaTalk, Seatalk NG or NMEA-2000/NMEA-0183?
Can I use the Navionics CF card and the Raymarine card reader with MacEnc or will I be forced to purchase the charts again through x-traverse.com?
How do I transfer waypoints between MacEnc and my C series chartplotter?
Thanks
Derek
