hi,
we have a 2003 ms pilot 34. all electronics are original, raymarine and to the best of my knowledge seatalk. it is equipped with a dsm250 sounder for sonar. i'm having problems with the dsm250 and would like to totally remove it. unfortunately it has a transducer specific to the dsm250.
i would like to remove the dsm250 and its transducer and replace with a nema 0183 transducer. aside from physical issues (i.e. thruhull size) i would need to find a nema 0183 in port. i noticed that the gyroplus 2 doc shows a nema 0183 in port with the annotation "not used". the gyroplus 2 is quite close to the thruhull and would be an easy connection.
does anyone know if this is a) a useable but unused port or b) non-functional port?
thanks in advance,
john
