Thanks Chuck!! After reading everything here, I "almost" didn't have to post but I was confused on the Type100 being on the STng bus.

Anyway, last questions:

1. should I use BOTH the in/out on the 0183 from the e165? In other words would I gain any benefit from AutoPilot computer TO the e165? (rudder data or turn or heading data?)

2. will the e165 can also control the autopilot? I saw a few of your write ups, but could not discern a conclusion. (updated diagram to show 0183 Type 100 interface)

3. would I need a STng power cable now for the converter to the RayData and GPS antenna? (added to diagram) Or does the STng bus off the e165 have power ?

Thank you Sir !! Another huge reason I stick with Raymarine!!!
