Questions
if I have a Vulcan 7R in my network, really need an extenal GPS? Which benefits give it to me?
While the Vulcan 7R does have an internal GPS antenna, there are certain installation applications (such as in a cabin, etc). where the signal is not well received by the display itself. In these cases you would require the external antenna. This antenna also has a heading sensor, which provides better accuracy on heading information (gives a true heading, rather than relying on GPS information) and can support additional features that require this accuracy.

Is this compatible with a Vulcan 12r
It’s NMEA2000 so yes. Just plug it into your network then select off device list.
