    I have been renovating a 2010 Sabre 42 HT Express with QSB425’s with Zues ZF Pods. Installed new 2020 Raymarine Axium Screens, radar and dual transducers. My VesselView screens are the v1.5 circa 2007-2014
    vintage.
    While my autopilot and skyhook work well on the cummins-merc control pad, I cannot get the autopilot to talk to the Axium system for ‘Go To” GPS data. Have the recommended gateways, but, no connect.
    Need advise–Do I have to upgrade the VesselViews to NMEA 2000? Not sure what is wrong..

    Call the MERCURY support 800 number… they will help…

    WHERE did you purchase the gateway from?

    Similiar issue

    Hi Bill,

    did you figure out how to resolve the issue? I have a similar problem and the same setup like you with a Simrad MFD where I cannot connect the autopilot via vesselview to the Simrad MFD.

    Thanks
    Christian

    Unless someone reading here has had this issue & solved it, I’d guess you need a really good Mercury Tech to sort this out. This would not be a Cummins thing
