Hi,
I just bought a new (used) boat that is equipped with a Verado engine and SmartCraft instruments.
Also just ordered the Northstar 657 combo unit with the SmartCraft gateway and Y-cable for connecting it to the Smart Craft system.
Question: by connecting the GPS unit via the SmartCraft gateway, will this give speed-readings to the SmartCraft system automatically? Or, will I still need to input speed readings via the separate NMEA-connection?
Thankful for any input.
