[DG] [DG]Upgrading network questions

[Derek - Raymarine - Moderator]

Hi Lars,
Thank you for your enquiry

As you have indicated in your diagram, you have an STng network comprising the A50, AIS650, AIS100 and you have a SeaTalk network comprising the SPX-5, ST6002+, the S10o and the ST40 depth.

These two networks can only be joined through an E22158 SeaTalk to STng converter, which should be at the position shown on your diagram by the A06064.

The E70196 can be used to output NMEA0183 position information from STng to the RAY54E

You currently show the A50 connected via STng to the SPX-5, this is OK, but the SPX-5 cannot convert between STng and SeaTalk, so I recommend it better to use the SPX-5 on SeaTalk and connect it though the E22158 converter.

Note that by using the converter all data in STng will be available on SeaTalk and vice versa.
Regards
Derek
