What exactly is this A80489 adapter cable for?

This A80489 adapter cable is used to connect an existing marine transducer, equipped with an 8-pin connector (originally designed for a Raymarine CP370 sounder module), to a Raymarine Axiom RV series multifunction display, which has a 25-pin transducer port.

I have a transducer that was connected to a CP370 module, can I connect it to my new Axiom RV with this cable?

Yes, this is precisely the function of this adapter. It was designed to allow users to keep their CP370 compatible transducer (8-pin connector) when upgrading to an Axiom RV display (25-pin port), thus avoiding the need to replace the transducer.

By using this adapter, will I have RealVision 3D functions with my old transducer?

No. This adapter allows your traditional transducer to display classic 2D sonar data on your Axiom RV display. It cannot add features that the transducer does not possess. To benefit from DownVision, SideVision, or RealVision 3D technologies, you must use a transducer specifically designed for them.

Is the installation of this cable complicated?

No, the installation is very simple and 'plug-and-play'. Simply connect the cable from your transducer (8-pin connector) to the corresponding end of the adapter, then screw the other end (25-pin connector) to the 'RealVision 3D' port on the back of your Axiom RV display.

Do I need to perform any specific configuration on my Axiom RV after connecting the cable?

Generally, the Axiom RV display automatically detects the type of transducer connected. However, it is recommended to check in the sonar settings that the correct transducer model is selected from the list to ensure optimal performance.

Will water temperature information be transmitted?

Yes, if your original transducer (CP370 compatible) is equipped with a temperature sensor, this adapter will transmit the temperature data to your Axiom RV display without any issues.

Can I use this cable to connect a transducer from a brand other than Raymarine?

This adapter is specifically designed for the Raymarine ecosystem. It is intended for connecting Raymarine transducers (or Airmar transducers compatible with Raymarine) with an 8-pin connector to Raymarine Axiom RV displays. Use with other brands is not guaranteed and could damage your equipment.

Is the connection waterproof and secure?

Yes, both connectors feature a screw-on locking ring that ensures a strong and waterproof connection, designed to withstand the marine environment and vibrations.

What is the advantage of using this cable instead of changing the transducer?

The main advantage is economic and practical. It allows you to keep your existing transducer, which is often expensive and complex to install (especially thru-hull models), while still enjoying the performance and interface of a latest-generation multifunction display.

Will this adapter work with a CHIRP transducer?

This adapter will work with traditional transducers (non-CHIRP or single-function CHIRP) that were compatible with the CP370 module. It will transmit the transducer's signal to the Axiom RV, which can interpret it.

How do I identify the transducer port on my Axiom RV?

On the back of your Axiom RV display, the transducer port is clearly identified. It is the largest round connector, with 25 pins, often labeled 'TRANSDUCER' or 'RealVision 3D'.

Is this cable necessary if I buy a new RealVision 3D transducer with my Axiom RV?

No. If you purchase a new Raymarine RealVision 3D transducer, it will come with the appropriate 25-pin connector to plug directly into your Axiom RV. This A80489 adapter cable is only useful if you wish to reuse an older 8-pin transducer.
