For us that have the VV7 which has NMEA2000 connectivity does the Garmin update recognize and display as Mercury VV data with all of the whistles and bells? I'm unclear exactly what this update does and by what means it gets the data...
Currently, I can see and display engine data (from Smartcraft through NMEA 2000) on both the Maretron displays as well as the Garmin displays. I haven't tried to poke in deeper to find out what other data from Smartcraft is being provided on the NMEA 2000 backbone via the Vessel View 7.
