 The MFD can also be connected to the GX device using NMEA 2000, see [[https://www.victronenergy.com/live/ccgx:start#marine_mfd_integration_by_nmea_2000|NMEA2000 chapter in the main manual]]. However, there is only limited support for NMEA 2000 PGNs sent from Victron equipment.

+The MFD can be configured easily to display the data from the GX device. To display tank data, there is no need to change any instance. \\
+In order to properly display battery/DC data from Victron equipment, you need to change the data instances of the PGNs that are sent out. See here for how to do that: [[https://www.victronenergy.com/live/ve.can:changing_nmea2000_instances|Changing NMEA2000 Instances]], section Data instances.
 To view NMEA 2000 devices on the MFD, go to //Settings > Initial Setup > Data Aquisition > Sensor List//. Here you can view basic information and change device instances and custom names.
 The following Victron PGNs are supported:
   * 127505 - Fluid level (tanks)
-  * 127506 - DC Detailed Status (limited support); State-of-charge, Time-to-go
+  * 127506 - DC Detailed Status (limited support); State-of-charge, Time-to-go <sup>(1)</sup>
-  * 127508 - Battery Status (limited support); Voltage, Current
+  * 127508 - Battery Status (limited support); Voltage, Current <sup>(1, 2)</sup>
+**Notes**
+  - The current MFD firmware only supports 4 batteries
+  - Due to a bug in the MFD firmware, a negative current is shown as ''---'' (three dashes)
