Compatibility for First Generation Axiom-Series displays

First generation Axiom, Axiom Pro, Axiom+, and Axiom XL displays are designed to run LightHouse 4 only and cannot be upgraded to LightHouse 5 due to processor and memory limitations. When running LightHouse 4, these displays cannot network with systems containing Axiom 2, Axiom 2 Pro, or Axiom 2 XL displays running the forthcoming LightHouse 5.

Mixed Axiom® Systems — Important Guidance Before Updating

On vessels that have a mixed network of first-generation Axiom-Series and Axiom 2-Series displays, all displays must remain on the same version of LightHouse 4 to maintain compatibility. To move to LightHouse 5, first-generation Axiom-Series displays must be replaced with their Axiom 2-Series equivalents.

Summary

  • Axiom 2, Axiom 2 Pro, or Axiom 2 XL systems are future ready for LightHouse 5.

  • First generation Axiom, Axiom Pro, Axiom+, and Axiom XL displays are limited to v4.11.111.

  • LightHouse 4 will continue to receive maintenance and security updates, while all new features will be exclusive to LightHouse 5.
