4. And...you're done. All information can now be viewed on one screen, which is:
DC loads, Battery information, Shore power connection, Solar production, AC loads, Inverter and Generator control and the
option to open the Remote Console
This video shows the exact steps:
After connecting the Ethernet cable the GX device, it receives an IP number from the Axiom DHCP. If you start
the Victron App on the Axiom and it shows “hardware devices not found”, just restart the Axiom and see… it
works!
13.3.7. NMEA 2000
Besides connecting over ethernet, a Raymarine MFD can also be connected to the Victron system using NMEA 2000. If you’re
new to NMEA 2000 & Victron, start with reading the NMEA 2000 & MFD integration guide.
The below sections explain the specifics of NMEA 2000 when connecting Victron to a Raymarine MFD.
13.3.8. Generic and supported PGNs
To setup the data sources on the Raymarine, go to Settings > Network > Sources > Advanced.
If you have more than 1 battery be sure to adjust the settings of the Axiom to the correct amount of battery(banks).
The following Victron related PGNs are supported by Raymarine:
PGN Description
127505 Fluid level (tank levels)
127506 DC Detailed Status (State-of-charge, Time-to-go)
127507 Charger status
127508 Battery Status (Battery Voltage, Battery Current)
127509 Inverter status
Note that J1939 - AC data is not supported by Raymarine.
When the NMEA 2000/STNG network has GPS data, the GX device sees this as a GPS source and is able to use the GPS
position in VRM.
13.3.9. Instancing requirements when using Raymarine
Fluid instancing details:
• Raymarine i70: max number of tank levels is 5; fluid instance 0-4 and type must be fuel
• Raymarine i70s: max number of tank levels is 5; fluid instance 0-4 and type must be fuel
• Axiom MFDs: per Lighthouse version 4.1.75, a maximum of 16 tanks can be connected; fluid instance 0-15
13.3.10. Before LightHouse 4.1.75
If there is more than one ie. SmartShunt in the NMEA 2000 network, or a solar charger and a SmartShunt, or any other device
transmitting the same type of PGNs, then the Data instances of these PGNs must be changed to make each Data instance
unique.
