## Description

RayView is a specialized Chrome extension designed for marine enthusiasts to remotely access their Raymarine Multi-Functional Displays (MFDs) over WiFi using their smartphone or tablet. Compatible with all Axiom models, and third generation c-Series, e-Series, g-S, ES, and Wi-Fi enabled a-Series Raymarine displays, RayView provides a real-time mirror of your onboard display directly on your device for enhanced convenience. 

To ensure optimal performance, devices should have at least a 1GHz processor and run Android 2.2.2 or later. The connected MFD must be updated to software version 3.15 or newer, with free updates available on Raymarine's official support page. Alongside RayView, users might also find RayControl and RayRemote apps useful for full touchscreen control and virtual keypad functionality respectively. Setting up is simple: after installing RayView and connecting your device to the MFD's WiFi, the app displays the exact interface of your Raymarine display on your device screen, delivering seamless onboard data access wherever you are.
