The Raymarine i70s System Pack offers a modern, integrated instrumentation solution for sailing or power boats, combining a high-visibility color display with a full suite of wind, depth, speed, and temperature sensors. At the core of this pack is the i70s – a 4.1-inch full-color multifunction instrument display that can be customized to show multiple data types in various formats (analog-style gauges, large digital readouts, graphs, etc.) according to the user’s needs. The i70s uses Raymarine’s intuitive LightHouse instrument interface, which is consistent with the interface on Raymarine’s MFD chartplotters, meaning that if you are already a Raymarine MFD user, operating the i70s will feel familiar and straightforward.
- Multifunction color display: The i70s can display a wide array of data – depth, boat speed, wind angle and speed, water temperature, engine parameters, AIS targets, and more – either all at once on split screens or in a rotating page setup configured by you. Thanks to its optically bonded screen (no air gap between the LCD and protective glass), the display delivers bright colors and sharp contrast with no fogging, and it remains clearly visible even under bright sunlight and at wide viewing angles. The sleek glass-bridge industrial design complements Raymarine’s eS and gS series, blending the instrument seamlessly into modern helm stations.
- All critical sensors included: The pack comes complete with the DST800 smart transducer and a wind transducer, covering all essential environmental inputs. The DST800 is a thru-hull “tri-ducer” that measures depth, water speed, and temperature all in one unit (fits a standard 2″ hull hole), providing reliable depth and speed data. The included wind transducer (short-arm masthead vane, Raymarine E22078) mounts at the top of your mast to capture apparent wind speed and angle. Together, these sensors feed the i70s display with real-time data for a comprehensive view of your sailing conditions.
- Analog transducer interface (iTC-5): This system pack includes the Raymarine iTC-5 Instrument Transducer Converter, which acts as the bridge between traditional analog transducers and the digital SeaTalk<sup>ng</sup> network. The wind transducer and DST800 plug into the iTC-5, which converts their signals into SeaTalk<sup>ng</sup>/NMEA2000 data for the i70s display. The iTC-5 can host up to five analog transducers (depth, speed/temperature, wind, compass, and rudder) simultaneously, instantly translating all of them to the network. This greatly simplifies installation – you don’t need multiple “smart” transducers or individual display heads; the single i70s can show it all. Calibration of sensors (for instance, adjusting speed for paddlewheel offset or aligning wind angle) is performed through easy menus on the i70s.
- Network connectivity and expandability: The i70s System Pack is designed for seamless integration with your onboard electronics. The bundle includes all necessary SeaTalk<sup>ng</sup> networking components: a 5-way backbone junction, a 3 m backbone cable, a power cable for the network, and two backbone terminators. Whether you are adding the i70s into an existing SeaTalk<sup>ng</sup>/NMEA2000 network or starting from scratch, all the pieces are provided – just connect them according to the diagram, and your instruments and sensors will be online. The i70s can also interface with first-generation SeaTalk networks using an optional adapter cable, which eases the upgrade path from older instruments without having to replace every sensor at once.
- Advanced features and AIS display: Beyond standard depth/speed/wind, the i70s can display engine data, fuel levels, compass heading, tank levels, and more if those are available on the network (via NMEA2000 from engine interfaces, etc.). It also features an AIS repeater mode that allows the i70s to graphically show nearby AIS vessel targets when an AIS receiver is present on the network. You can view the closest 25 AIS-equipped vessels and select individual targets to see details like their course, speed, and heading, enhancing situational awareness in crowded waters. All of these functions are accessible via the i70s’s simple user interface with contextually sculpted rubber keys, and you have full control to customize which data pages and combinations are most important to you.
- Built for longevity and upgradability: The i70s display is built to marine standards (waterproof to IPX6) and consumes minimal power (~0.6 W with sensors active), which is particularly advantageous for sailors on long voyages. Its software can be updated via a connected Raymarine MFD or PC to keep features up-to-date. Raymarine backs the entire system pack with a 2-year warranty (extendable to 3 years upon registration), underscoring their confidence in the product’s durability and performance.
