[CA] [CA11] Intagration of the ClearCruise System

[Chuck - Raymarine - Moderator]

Welcome back to the Raymarine Forum Jeff,

- The diagram incorrectly indicates that a spur cable is to be used to connect the iTC-5 to the 5-Way Connector ... this should be relabeled to indicate that backbone cable will be used.

- it is recommended that the i70 not be interfaced to the SeaTalk bus. Instead, it is recommended that the i70 be interfaced to a spur socket within the backbone to maximize the features and data which it will support.

- Please click here to view a FAQ addressing how the SeaTalk bus including your ST60 instruments and legacy autopilot should be interfaced to the system. In short two SeaTalk busses will be created. The first SeaTalk bus will include only the ST8002, RF Base, and p70. The bus containing these items alone will be interfaced to one of the autopilot course computer's two SeaTalk ports. The second SeaTalk bus will include the ST60 instruments. One end of the second SeaTalk bus will be connected to the SeaTalk (yellow) socket of the SeaTalk to SeaTalkng Converter. The other end of the second SeaTalk bus will be connected to the autopilot course computer's remaining SeaTalk port. When connecting the second SeaTalk bus to the autopilot course computer, only the data (yellow) and ground (shield) lead of the SeaTalk cable will be connected to the autopilot course computer's SeaTalk terminals. The SeaTalk cable's red lead will be insulated to prevent shorting.

- The B744V shown within the diagram must be a compatible fishfinder version of this transducer in order to be interfaced to an Axiom DV or Axiom RV MFD.
