Autopilot Remotes - [email protected] - 06-02-16 01:20 AM
Notes on the Raymarine website about the IOS App indicate autopilot control does not include activating or deactivating the autopilot. You can infer from this you can change the course however in the version of software on my MFD (a68 V13.37) you cannot control the autopilot in any manner. What is correct?
Next, are there any options for an autopilot remote other than the Seatalk wireless remotes which will require the STNG to ST converter to work?

Welcome to the Raymarine Forum Tom,
By design, Raymarine's mobile apps do not support any level of autopilot control. Should one desire to remotely control an autopilot, then it would be necessary to interface a SmartController or S100 Autopilot Remote Control to the system. These may be interfaced systems featuring a SeaTalkng backbone by using a SeaTalk to SeaTalkng Converter.
