A78 network to S1000 Connection

[solomon]

Good Evening,
I have a Raymarine A78 MFD and I am trying to connect it to a Raymarine S1000 A/P.

I have done a similar install on a friends boat with a c120 classic and a EV-100 power which is working great but this A78 / S1000 is giving me fits.
I have followed the installation instructions for the S1000 completely. The pump is in, the hydro system is bled and functional - the course computer and alarm are installed and powered per Raymarines directions.
The final task is to connect the A78 to the S1000 by a SeaTalk network.

As I understand it the course computer can be connected to a gps source several ways. Because Raymarine uses their own network I am choosing to follow their direction. What I have done is this: I followed the connection directions to a seatalk network for the course computer but I am having trouble with this first connection. Page 25 diagram c of the S1000 Autopilot Installation Guide states that I need to connect yellow - yellow, blk - blk and red -red in the seatalk system. Am I correct to figure I can use either a standard spur (A06039)cable cut and spliced or a spur stripped to end cable part #A06043 to make this connection? If not then what will be my option?

Secondly can I use a spur cable ( A06039) to connect the A78 to the network backbone and if not which cable should be used? The backbone will consist of either a 5 way connector(A06064) or is it necessary to use a SeaTalk1 & SeaTalkng converter (R52131) to join the two. And if I have to use the converter could you explain the sequence of connections for me?

Finally I understand that either connection setup will require a fused power source, I also understand the system must be properly terminated using the appropriate terminators.

Thanks you for your time and effort with this.
Chris
