Overview

The Raymarine E70639-03-NAG is a 12.1 inch multifunction display and fishfinder/chartplotter package with built-in RealVision 3D sonar, an RV100 transom transducer, and North America Navionics+ charts. The IPS touchscreen runs at WXGA 1280 x 800 resolution with up to 1800 nits brightness, and the unit is rated IPX6 and IPX7 for helm positions that see spray, rain, and regular washdowns.

At the helm, it puts charts, High CHIRP sonar, DownVision, SideVision, and RealVision 3D on one screen, backed by a 10 Hz internal GNSS receiver for fast position updates. It runs on a 12 V system with an 8 to 16 V DC input range, so it fits the electrical setup found on many center consoles, bay boats, and coastal cruising boats.

For fit planning, the display face is 12.36 x 8.54 inches for surface or flush mounting, and the trunnion mounted unit is about 3 inches deep before connector clearance is added. RayNet Ethernet, NMEA 2000, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, 16 GB internal storage, and a MicroSDXC slot give it room to grow into a wider Raymarine network without turning a simple helm into a complicated install.

Key features

• 12.1 inch IPS touchscreen with 1280 x 800 resolution, 1800 nits brightness, and 88 degree viewing angles
• Built-in RealVision 3D sonar plus High CHIRP, DownVision, and SideVision channels through the rear 25-pin RealVision connector
• Includes the RV100 transom-mount transducer and associated fittings
• 10 Hz internal GNSS receiver with GPS, GLONASS, and BeiDou support
• 16 GB solid state internal storage, 1 MicroSDXC card slot, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 4.0, and USB Micro B connectivity
• RayNet Ethernet plus NMEA 2000 on the supplied power cable, with a DeviceNet to SeaTalk NG adapter included
• IPX6 and IPX7 protection for above-deck or below-deck mounting locations
• 12 V nominal supply, 8 to 16 V DC operating range, and a 7 A fuse or thermal breaker requirement

Installation and setup

This unit can be trunnion mounted or surface and flush mounted. For a flush or surface install, plan around a 12.36 x 8.54 inch face and allow rear access for the mounting studs, brackets, and cable connections. For a trunnion install, the display body is about 3 inches deep, so cable bend radius and connector clearance still need to be considered behind the bracket.

The supplied power and NMEA 2000 cable helps keep the wiring run clean when you are feeding both power and backbone data to the helm. A 7 A inline fuse or thermal breaker is required, and the drain wire is meant to be tied into the vessel RF ground or the negative battery terminal. The included RV100 mounts on the transom, which keeps hull cutting to a minimum compared with a thru-hull sonar install.

System integration and compatibility

Axiom+ RV fits well at the center of a Raymarine helm where one display needs to handle navigation, sonar, and shared network data. It can exchange data over RayNet with other Axiom displays and connect to NMEA 2000 or SeaTalk NG networks for instruments and autopilot information, while Wi-Fi and Bluetooth cover wireless features and accessory connections.

Because the sonar module is built in, there is no need to add a separate black-box sonar module to start using the included transducer. The rear 25-pin connector also supports other compatible RealVision transducers, and adaptor cables are available for several other Raymarine transducer types when the boat or fishing style changes later on.

Use on board

This package makes sense for skippers who want one larger screen at the helm for navigation, fishfinding, and network data without adding more boxes than necessary. The RV100 transom transducer suits boats where a transom install is the practical route, including many outboard center consoles, bay boats, walkarounds, and trailerable fishing boats.
