[CA] [CA11] New Axiom Install

[Chuck - Raymarine - Moderator]

TJ,

The Type 400 Autopilot Course Computer and ST60 Instruments are compatible with a SeaTalk to SeaTalkng Converter Kit which has been updated with the latest available Raymarine product software update. The Type 400 Autopilot Course Computer features two SeaTalk port, which in turn will support two SeaTalk busses. When using these devices in conjuction with a SeaTalk to SeaTalkng Converter, two SeaTalk busses will be created. One bus, which will be powered by the autopilot course computer, will be used to interface ST7000 and ST600R to the autopilot course computer. This will permit the autopilot to be operated irrespective of the power state of the rest of the system. The second buss will link the daisy chained ST60 instruments to the SeaTalk socket of the SeaTalk to SeaTalkng Converter. The other end of the daisy chained ST60 instruments will be interfaced to autopilot course computer's second SeaTalk port. The red lead of the SeaTalk Cable connecting the daisy chained ST60 Instruments to the second SeaTalk port of the autopilot course computer will not be connected to the SeaTalk port's red terminal. Instead, this lead will not be used and will be insulated to prevent shorting. This act will ensure that the autopilot does not in turn supply power to the system's SeaTalkng / NMEA 2000 backbone.
