[LW] [LW11] interconnection of new AXIOM to existing SPX 10 autopilot

[estrace]

I have the following existing Raymarine equipment on my sail boat:

- SPX 10 autopilot course computer with fluxgate compass
- ST 6002 pilot controller
- ST60+ graphic display for all data on the seatlalk network
- ST60+ tridata display with depth, temperature and speed sensors
- ST60+ wind display with wind speed and direction sensors

All the above instruments are presently on a seatalk network and work fine so far

I am adding the following Raymarine new equipment:

- Axiom 7
- Quantum radar
- AIS 700

I am planning to link these new instruments on the following manner:

- Axiom 7 and AIS 700 on two spurs of a seatalkNG properly terminated backbone
- Quantum radar linked to the Axiom 7 by wifi

I would like to interface these two existing seatalk and new seatalkNG networks together in order to have all the data available to all the instruments on both networks, in particular wind, depth, temperature, speed, magnetic heading, ect ect available on the Axiom 7 seatalk NG network form the ST60+ instruments network, as well as waypoints data, xtrack error, gps position, time, SOG, COG, et ect available on the ST60+ and SPX10 autopilot seatalk network fromthe Axiom7 seatalk NG network.
To achieve this, I plan to use a third spur on my new seatalkNG backbone and to connect this spur to the existing seatalkNG connector of the SPX 10 autopilot course computer.
I assume that the SPX 10 autopilot course computer will have the same functionality than a seatalk to seatalk NG converter and that therefore I do not need to install a seatalk to seatalk NG converter in my circuit and most importantly that all the data will be converted and transfered from one network to the other.

In short I see the following possible options:

1) interface from seatalk to seatalk NG networks thru the SPX 10 autopilot course computer as described above

2) interface from seatalk to seatalk NG networks with a seatalk to seatalk NG
converter

3) interface from seatalk to seatalk NG networks both thru the SPX 10 autopilot course computer and with a seatalk to seatalk NG converter

Could you please tell me what solution you would recomend to insure that all data is properly transfered fromone networkto the other.

Thanks in adavance

Best regards
