In the SeaTalkNG reference manual (81300-1) on page 6, there is this paragraph about limitations:

"If SeaTalkng and SeaTalk(1) products are used together, do NOT connect an NMEA2000 backbone, as this product combination could compromise the integrity of the NMEA2000 system."

I am not sure I understand this correctly. Does that mean that NMEA2000 devices cannot be connected to the SeaTalkNG backbone when, e.g., a SeaTalk to SeaTalkNG converter (E22158) is used?

The manual for the converter doesn't mention anything like that.

Dear svdlinden,

The use of ST1 products networked with a STng system is fine as long as networked correctly.

The manual needs updating, this is referring to the earlier days of STng. I will get this attended to.

Many Thanks
Louise
