Connect cameras to see footage directly on the chartplotter, including a bird’s-eye view of your vessel with support for our Surround View Camera System2. Enjoy audio and video integrations that allow you to show and hear the same video throughout the screens and speakers on your network.
Connect with Your System
Integrated Wi-Fi®, BLUETOOTH®, and ANT® technologies connect compatible devices to your system. You’ll enable easy, wireless software updates via the ActiveCaptain® app with your compatible smartphone or tablet. Use your compatible Garmin smartwatch for remote control of key MFD features, including chart zoom, layout shortcut, Fusion® stereo, autopilot, and more — and stream important data from your system directly to your wrist. You can even use spoken commands to control chartplotters through your compatible headset.
