[LW] [LW11] SeaTalkng NMEA2000 interface

[the wizard]

i have a hybrid instrument system on my boat [Beneteau 473]. When I bought the boat the original Raymarine autopilot control head screen had become “cloudy” and difficult to read. I opted to upgrade the autopilot computer to the Evolution ACU-400, EV-1 and p70s control head. We kept the original hydraulic drive and rudder sensor. The previous owner had installed a B&G Zeus2 chart plotter and Triton Instruments [NMEA2000]. I would like to connect both systems so that the wind information from the B&G [NMEA2000] can be sent to the Raymarine network [SeaTalkng], and used on the autopilot. Please see attached schematic diagram of instrument layout. Is it as simple as connecting the backbones of the two systems? Or is an interface box required to interfacer signal protocols or connection fittings. Any information you can provide to accomplish this would be most helpful. Thank you.
