[CA] Seatalk NG, DeviceNet, and Suzuki CP-10

[Brent.washburn]

So I purchased a DeviceNet Cable to attempt to pull the data from my existing NMEA 2000 backbone for my Suzuki outboard and my Suzuki CP-10 and I've experienced some weird results when attempting to patch the data into my E90W via a SeaTalk NG 5 way connector. Somehow the 5 way connector invalidates the data coming from the motor and makes my CP-10 reading go dead. . .

So after troubleshooting a lot of different scenarios I plug my device net cable directly into my E90W, and boom it has the engine data and my CP-10 is reading correctly. Now of course I am going to have to use my 5 way connector to connect all of my other electronics but it doesn't seem like there is a way that I can plug the device net cable into this connector. This doesn't make any sense to me. I've even unplugged everything but the 5 way connector from the device net connection (even the power) and it still invalidated the data in NMEA 2000.

Is it possible that I have a bad 5 way connector?
