Hi
I have installed a new Evolution Autopilot with ACU400 that powers the backbone. I have connected the E85001 Seatalk side to the STNG using the Converter cable (E22158) with bare wires Yellow and Shield. On the other side of the NMEA bridge I have connected the R,Y, Sh from the Seatalk netowork, with the red connected to a fused power source. All the NMEA instruments are displaying data and passing this to the P70 Control head.
On the NMEA outputs I have a VHF and Navtes receiver connected but there is no data passing from NMEA to NMEA0183 and the LED lights are dead. The testing protocol on the Forum is a little confusing, there was no voltage between Yellow and Shields, does that mean it is faulty or are there other diagnostics/reasons for this not firing up.
