Gentlemen,
For almost 8 years I had an (now) old set of a ST60+tridata and a ST40wind wired by seatalk1. Also wired by seatalk1 I have a autopilot ST1000+ and a garmins GPS in such a way that autopilot can follow the compass, maintain the wind direction or steer to the active GPS waypoint. Also the power (12VDC) comes from sealtalk1.
Please see attached file "Old_Instruments.jpg".
But the ST60 and ST40 displays got damaged (cracks on the displays and many segments missing) then I replaced them with a i50tridata and i40wind. I kept the old sensors (speed, depth and wind) as well as the ST1000+ autopilot and the garmin GPS.
I also got a cable adapter for connecting the i50 to the i40 (seatalk1 to seatalkng).
Please see the attached file "New_Instruments.jpg".
The speed, depth and wind sensors remained the same.
But I forgot that the power connection, ST1000+ autopilot and the Garmin GPS remained on the boat wired by seatalk1. So I ended up with a seatalk1 connector on the boat side and a seatalkng connector on the ne i50tridata.
I checked the electrical continuity of the seatalk1 to seatalkng cable adapter so that I know the correspondence between the seatalk1 and seatalkng pins. So that I am figuring out that I can make a homemade seatalk1 to seatalkng adapter.
Please see the attached file "homemade Seatalk1 to NG adapter.png"
Worth mentioning that I live in Brazil and there is no stock of Raymarine adapters here (as far as I know).
Would you please confirm that my homemade adapter will work fine?
Or please help me to solve this issue.
Thanks in advance
Thomas Shaw
