RE: [CA11] Rudder Indicator Wires
Welcome to the Raymarine Forum Tom,

It is strongly advised that Raymarine's M81105 or a third party rudder reference transducer which has been specifically designed for use with Raymarine autopilots (ex. Octopus Autopilot Drive Systems, etc.) and steering systems (ex. [http://www.seastarsolutions.com/products/hydraulic-new/outboard-new/seastar_smartstick/]Teleflex SmartStick[/url], etc.) be used. Any rudder reference transducer which had been used with a previous Raymarine autopilot may instead be used with any other Raymarine autopilot design. The M81105 rudder reference transducer cable's bare lead is simply a shield/drain lead. The red and green are the right and left reference point of a rheostat (5k ohms when centered and resistance is measured between the blue lead and either the right or left reference leads). The blue lead is attached to the rheostat's wiper. When connecting any Raymarine rudder reference transducer's cable to a Raymarine autopilot ACU or course computer, one need simply match the colored leads of the Raymarine Rudder Reference Transducer to the corresponding color coded Rudder terminals of the Raymarine ACU or course computer.
