New to me boat so I am still chasing where what and why. I have a c80 that's kinda old. Also radar and chartplotter(ray), auto pilot 715 upper 730 lower(cetrek), 162 chartplotter(garman), and a couple speed and depth logs(garman).There is a Ray box that has serius weather? Seatalk on the c80 is connected to radar and gps and that weather box. Is it possible without a degree in theoretical physics to connect at least the c80 to my laptop. I have read the recent post on nav. software and have looked over Raytheon's translational software, and that will be the next task.
What hardware is required, I don't think my unit knows what Bluetooth is. It seems there would be a seatalk to USB. I know there is a ton of info out in the void but I rationalized that someone has to have this set up so why reinvent the wheel. Interfacing all this equipment is perplexing and probably will require some pro help but hoping that with my limited experience in programing along with all the knowledge on here a working platform can happen.
Amazingly the wiring on this old girl was done with considerable amount of pride and that makes any elec. work a little less disheartening. But of course as I brag the devil didn't label a single wire or carrier.
Anyway, any help would be met with humbling praise
