+After connecting the Ethernet cable the GX device receives an IP number (10.x.x.x) from the Axiom DHCP.
+If you start the Victron App on the Axiom and it shows "hardware devices not found", just restart the Axiom and see... it works!
 ===== 7. NMEA 2000 =====
-The MFD can also be connected to the Victron system using NMEA 2000, see the [[ve.can:nmea-2000:start|]].
+A Raymarine MFD can also be connected to the Victron system using NMEA 2000. If you’re new to NMEA2000 & Victron, start with reading the [[ve.can:nmea-2000:start|]].
-In order to properly display the NMEA 2000 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.
+This chapter explains the specifics of NMEA2000 when connecting Victron to a Raymarine MFD.
+If there are more than 1 (for example) SmartShunt in the NMEA2000 network then you change the Data instances of the Victron PGNs to make the 2nd device can be seen too. See here for how to do that: [[https://www.victronenergy.com/live/ve.can:changing_nmea2000_instances|Changing NMEA2000 Instances]], section Data instances.
 To setup the data sources on the Raymarine, go to //Settings > Network > Sources > Advanced...//
+If you have more than 1 battery be sure to adjust the settings of the Axiom to the correct amount of battery(banks).
 The following Victron related PGNs are supported:
