Completely Factory Resetting Evolution

[Chuck - Raymarine - Moderator]

Welcome to the Raymarine Forum Keith,

Contrary to what you believe may have been recommended previously, within a system in which a ST60 Compass and an autopilot, the rudder reference transducer should only be interfaced to a single device with you system ... and that device should be the ACU-400. The ST60 Compass Instrument would then be configured to function as a repeater of rudder data which it will receive from the Evolution autopilot via the SeaTalk to SeaTalkng Converter (updated w/v2.01 ST-STng Converter software).

For performance calculations, Evolution autopilots will not use rudder data from any rudder data source other than an analog rudder reference transducer which has been interfaced to the ACU's rudder terminals. Correspondingly, the Dockside Wizard of Evolution autopilots where an analog rudder reference transducer which has not been interfaced to the ACU's rudder terminals will not prompt the user to calibrate the rudder.

After installing the rudder reference transducer in the manner specified within this response, if is recommended that the autopilot be reset in the manner which you had previously exercised.
