4.9 Sonar connection

A sonar connection is required to enable use of the
Fishfinder application.
The MFD can be used with the following Raymarine
sonar modules:
• CP450C
• CP300
• CP200
• CP100
There are 2 types of connection required for
Fishfinder applications:
• Sonar module connection — converts the sonar
signals provided by the sonar transducer into
data suitable for a marine electronics system.
The sonar variant multifunction displays feature
a built-in sonar, enabling you to connect the
display directly to a compatible sonar transducer.
Non-sonar variants require a connection to an
external Raymarine sonar module. Internal
and external sonars require a connection to a
compatible sonar transducer.
• Sonar transducer connection — provides sonar
signals to the sonar module.

(Non-sonar variant).
2. Raymarine network switch.
3. Raymarine sonar module.
4. RayNet cable.
If a spare network connection is available on your
multifunction display then a sonar module may be
connected directly to the display, without using a
Raymarine network switch.
Note: You can also connect a sonar variant MFD
to a Raymarine ® sonar module. This is useful in
circumstances where you need a higher powered
sonar module for example.
Multiple active sonar modules
Multiple active sonar modules can be present on the
same network, you must select which sonar module /
channel you want to use in the Fishfinder application.
