Full Version: STS 6100 autopilot plus furuno gp-30
You're currently viewing a stripped down version of our content. View the full version with proper formatting.
Someone stole my fluxgate compass off my boat, cut the wire and unbolted it go figure. Of course my auto pilot doesnt work without a compass anymore.
My question is when I hook up my furuno GP-30 to the 6100 on NMEA m -+
I still get "no comp" on the control unit.
Doesn't the 6100 take the RS232 output from my furuno Yellow and Blue
wires?
I think I need to reprogram the 6100 to take input from the NMEA side but don't know how.


Alternatively I could use a PC to output GPS to the 6100 but that still would
mean (I think ) I need to re program the inputs for the 6100.
Any help would be great thank you.
Welcome to the Raymarine Forum lookingglass1970,

Some models of Raymarine autopilot course computers were designed to support use with a 4800 BAUD NMEA 0183 heading source supporting an update rate of at least 10Hz. What model of autopilot course computer is the ST6001 autopilot control head interfaced to?
