Seatalk /Seatalkng to Nmea 2000 I60 & Autopilot

[gewfish]

Trying to network both an I60 Wind(STng) and an Autopilot Smartpilot X-5 (St and/or STng) to a NMEA 2000 network.

Q.1 If I understand correctly, the I60 being STng only requires the correct cable (A06045 or A06046) to the NMEA 2000 network. a) Am I correct? b)Will the I60 get power from the NMEA 2000 network doing this?

Q.2 The autopilot is a Smartpilot X-5 with a ST6002 controller and a Course Computer E12122). The course computer has connection to ST (in and out) and STng. a)If I purchase the STng spur calk (A06043 or A06044), will this connect directly to the NMEA 2000 network? or b) Do I have to build a Seatalk network and then use the Raymarine converter kit (E22158)?


Thank you for your assistance!

Hello gewfish,

A1-a-yes
A1-b-yes

A2-a-either one of these cables can connect to a NMEA2000 network if you install a NMEA2000 field install-able connector.
A2-b-you would not use the converter kit in this installation.
