[CA11] ACU100 is driving wheel motor from seatalk network
I've added an ev100 wheel pilot to my network which includes an es78 MFD. The MFD supplies power to the p70 but it ALSO seems to power the ACU100. When I enable the pilot from the p70, the wheel motor starts turning the wheel even though the ACU100 (which is on a separate breaker) is NOT powered. This doesn't seem right/normal to me. The seatalk ng power wire is much to small to handle the motor current demands.

Question 1: How do I keep the ACU100 from driving the motor unless it is also powered from it's breaker? Do I remove the red seatalk wire input to the ACU100? My setup can't be very unusual: combining the most popular wheel pilot with one of the most popular MFDs..

Question 2: In order to use the autopilot without the MFD on, I would need to add network power on the autopilot breaker with the supplied cable. Is it OK of both the MFD and this power cable are both powering the network with both are on?
