ST6000 Disengaging to Standby

David,

Q. What course computer replaces my Type 100 please.
A. Unfortunately, three new generations of autopilot course computer have been introduced since the Type 100. Replacement of the currently installed autopilot course computer with Evolution autopilot components would require
- replacement of the fluxgate compass with an EV-1 Sensor Core, replacement of the ST6001 with a p70S or p70RS Autopilot Control Head,
- installation of a SeaTalkng backbone to interface the Evolution autopilot components to one another,
- installation of a SeaTalk to SeaTalkng Converter to support integration of the ST600R, and
- replacement of the Type 100 Autopilot Course Computer with an appropriate Evolution ACU for your third party autopilot hydraulic pump. As no online documentation could be located for the Octopus 1212 reversible hydraulic pump, it would be recommended that Aero Marine Services (one of our Raymarine dealers who is also a dealer of Octopus autopilot drive units) be contacted regarding the recommended ACU for use with your hydraulic autopilot pump.
