RE: Converting SG2 Smartpilot to NMEA 2000 and New Network
Welcome to the Raymarine Forum Chris,

The method which you have described is not how we would have recommended that the legacy autopilot components featuring a SeaTalk communications interface should be interfaced to the new system of Axiom MFDs. Please click here to view a FAQ addressing this subject.

Should the MFD be interfaced to the autopilot in the manner which you have described, then the MFD will not detect the presence of the autopilot and it's transducer icon will indicate so. However, should the MFD be commanded into navigation mode (i.e. commanded to Go To a Waypoint / Cursor Position or to Follow a Route), then the associated navigational data should be transmitted to the autopilot via the Actisense NGW-1-ISO.
