Raymarine i40 Bidata Display System - E70066

Raymarine i40 Bidata Display System - E70066

The Raymarine i40 Bidata Display System (E70066) is a compact, dependable marine instrument designed to deliver essential depth and speed information for both sailboats and powerboats. By combining depth and speed-through-water data into a single, easy-to-read display, the i40 Bidata helps captains maintain better situational awareness for safe navigation, docking, anchoring, and overall vessel performance.

Built around a high-contrast monochrome LCD with large digits and red backlighting, the i40 Bidata display remains clearly visible in bright daylight as well as low-light and nighttime conditions. The intuitive interface allows for quick access to depth alarms, speed data, and trip or log information when connected to compatible sensors and networks. Its compact form factor makes it ideal for smaller helm spaces while still providing the clarity and reliability Raymarine instruments are known for.

The i40 Bidata Display System features native SeaTalk connectivity for straightforward integration with existing Raymarine instrument systems and can be adapted to SeaTalkng and NMEA 2000 networks using optional interfaces. Designed to match the footprint of legacy ST40 instruments, installation is fast and hassle-free, making it an excellent choice for upgrades or new installations. Rugged, energy-efficient, and engineered for the marine environment, the Raymarine i40 Bidata Display System is a trusted solution for accurate depth and speed monitoring on the water.
