C80 classic to EV100 wheel to T122 to Link 8

[mzorn]

Hello and thanks for the quick response.
Your answer A1:
As you have stated, I have a SeaTalkng backbone on the Evolution autopilot ACU, Control Head, and EV-1 Sensor Core. I wanted to utilize the A06048 cable because the pinouts on the Seatalk 2 matched the pinouts on the Seatalkng spur cable. (See attached from Raymarine website).

I found this elsewhere on the internet -

Seatalk 2 whilst is not plug compatible with NMEA2000 or SeatalkNG, adapter cables are available. Raymarine A06048 is the part number for seatalk ng to seatalk2 adapter cable. Any data available on the SeaTalk2 network will then be available on the SeaTalk NG network. Only one connection is needed per network. This adapter enables an existing instrument network, using the SeaTalk2 5-pin connectors, to interface with a SeaTalk NG network.*Note that this cable cannot be used to connect a SeatalkNG network to the Seatalk2 port on the back of a Raymarine E-Series display. Use cable A06061 for that purpose.


Could you give a brief explanation on why this will not work? Does the seatalk2 port on the C80 not perform input/output?

Your answer A2, A3,and A4: Looks like I will be purchasing a multiplexer, sending a single stream of data to the C80. If I configure the C80 NMEA 183 port to "AIS 38400", Does that change both the input and output speed?
