Networking a95 to non-Raymarine A/P

[TKP62]

Hello,

A friend just purchased a new a95 and I will be installing it for him as I have quite a bit of experience with ST, STng and a/e series plotters on my own boat. He has ST60 instruments and we will be installing the ST1-to-STng converter so they will communicate. Unfortunately, he has a ComNav autopilot (older) with NMEA0183 networking. If he purchases the Actisense NGW-1-STNG converter, will the a95 have full functionality with autopilot control, or can we expect only to share heading info to the a95 and BTW data to the autopilot for tracking to a waypoint?

Alternately, without the Actisense unit, will the heading info be successfully shared with the a95 if we only connect the ComNav NMEA output to Port 1 input of the a95 (which would allow Heading Up, Relative Motion on the plotter)? He has no radar so that is not a concern.

Thanks,

Tim
