    Best way to hook up a laptop running Expedition

    I have a Vulcan dispay with a B&G Compass, GPS and wind but no processer. 
    Can I hook the laptop up thru NEMA 2000 to run Expediton?
    If I do need a Processer will the Triton one work?
    Thanks

    Yes, you can use (eg) an Actisene NGT-1 to connect to the NMEA 2000 network.

    If you have an (eg) Edge processor, Exp can connect directly to that. I recommend an ethernet connection to it over wifi though.

    Nick,Thanks, If i don't have the Edge processer will Expedition still work connected to NEMA 2000 with the Vulcan display?

    Exp can get whatever is on the NMEA 2000 network.
