Evolution EV-100 Wheel pilot system

RE: Evolution EV-100 Wheel pilot system
jefndeb,

There is no reason that the ST70 Instrument Display need be removed from the system ... it is simply recommended that it be interfaced via SeaTalkng rather than via SeaTalk to maximize the information which it may display.

The power insertion between the two SeaTalkng 5-Way Connectors should be removed. The single power insertion via the SeaTalk to SeaTalkng Converter will power the SeaTalkng backbone.

A termination plug should be installed within the SeaTalkng 5-Way Connector or SeaTalkng T-Piece that will be installed at the helm.


Q1. So I cannot use a T Spur at the helm for the e7 and P70? I have to use another 5 way?..
A1. While a SeaTallkng T-Piece features two backbone sockets, it features only one spur socket. You will need two spur sockets to connect the both the MFD and p70 to the SeaTalkng backbone. Should the MFD and p70 be closely located to one another, then it would be possible to daisy chain the MFD to the p70 using a SeaTalkng Spur Cable and then connect the p70's second SeaTalkng spur socket to a SeaTalkng T-Piece. However, from a cable routing perspective, it is generally advised that the fewest cables be passed through binnacle tubing. Correspondingly, it may be easier to use a SeaTalkng 5-Way Connector and then one spur cable to each device. Should the MFD and p70 not be installed within binnacle pods, then this point is moot.
