  1. ALARM | VIDEO 1 — The alarm / video 1 connector enables connections of the external alarm buzzer accessory (E26033) and an analog video input via BNC connector, using the alarm / video cable (part number A80235).

  2. ACCESSORY — The accessory connector enables connection of the external card reader RCR-SD/USB (part number A80440).

  3. POWER | VIDEO 2 | AUDIO — The power/video 2/audio connector provides a connection to a 12 / 24 V dc power supply, an analog video input via BNC connector, and analog audio output via RCA connectors.

    Note
    • Axiom® 2 XL displays are supplied with a Power/video/audio cable that has a right-angled connector. A straight connector cable is also available (A80744).

    • The original Axiom® Power/Video/NMEA 0183 cables cannot be used with Axiom® 2 XL displays.

  4. GPS ANTENNA — The GPS antenna connector enables connection of an external GNSS (GPS) antenna (e.g.: GA200 part number A80589), which allows the display’s internal GNSS (GPS) receiver to obtain a position fix.

  5. NETWORK POE OUT — The 3 x network connectors enable connection of RayNet devices. The Network connectors also provide power to PoE devices.

  6. HDMI IN — The HDMI in connector enables connection of an external HDMI video source using the HDMI cable (part number A80219). The video source can be displayed in the display’s Video app.

  7. HDMI OUT — The HDMI out connector enables connection of an external HDMI monitor or HDTV using the HDMI accessory cable (part number A80219). The monitor mirrors the display’s screen.

  8. TOUCH CONTROL IN — The touch in connector enables you to control the display with a compatible touchscreen monitor, using the USB A to USB B cable (part number A80578).

  9. TOUCH CONTROL OUT — The touch out connector enables you to control a compatible device with the display’s touchscreen, using the USB B to USB A cable (part number A80579).

  10. NMEA 2000 — The NMEA 2000 connector enables connection to a SeaTalk NG or NMEA 2000 network using the supplied SeaTalk NG to DeviceNet adaptor cable or a suitable DeviceNet cable.

  11. GROUND — The optional grounding point should only be used when the display experiences touchscreen interference from nearby equipment. The grounding point should be connected to the same RF ground point as the interfering equipment, or the vessel’s negative battery terminal.

Note
  • VIDEO 2 is the primary video connection. The Video feed connected to VIDEO 2 is encoded as RTSP and streamed over ethernet to networked displays.

  • VIDEO 1 is the secondary video connection and is shared with HDMI IN. HDMI IN and VIDEO 1 cannot be used at the same time. If devices are connected to both connections then the HDMI IN connection will take priority.

  • The video feeds connected to HDMI IN and VIDEO 1 are NOT streamed over ethernet to networked displays.
