Data master

Systems containing more than one MFD must have a designated Data master MFD. The Data master
is the primary MFD in the network, this should be the MFD that has the connection to the SeaTalkng ®
/ NMEA 2000 CAN bus network and any other devices and sources of data in your system. The Data
master bridges the data over the SeaTalkhs ™ network to any compatible networked 'repeater' MFDs.
Information shared by the Data master includes:
• Cartography
• Waypoints, Routes and Tracks
• Radar
• Sonar
• Data received from the autopilot, GNSS receiver, instruments, transducers, the engine and any
other compatible external sources.
Note: Your system may be wired for redundancy with data connections made to repeat displays.
However these connections will only become active in the event of a fault and/or reassignment of
the data master.
Switching Data Master
You can switch the MFD you want to be the Data master at anytime.
From the Network tab: Homescreen > Settings > Network:
1. Select an MFD from the list that you want to designate as the new Data master.
2. Select Assign as Data Master from the pop-over options.
