[CA11] Adding EV-400 to E120 classic

[CA11] Adding EV-400 to E120 classic
Raymarine,
Thanks for hosting a great forum!

Will be purchasing EV-400 power with P70R and Type II pump.
Once installed this will provide my vessel (44' twin engine cruiser) with autopilot function.

If I understand correctly, the install will create a SeaTalk ng network.

This thread has helped me understand how to integrate my E120 Classic to the P70R:
http://forum.raymarine.com/showthread.php?tid=4650

Question:
1. Is the A06047 cable one of the correct ways to integrate the E120?

(I will update the E120 to software V5.69)

Attached is my system drawing. (Removed by Bluebyu Aug 3 as it is incorrect)

Thanks

RE: [CA11] Adding EV-400 to E120 classic
Welcome to the Raymarine Forum bluebyu,

Q1. Is the A06047 cable one of the correct ways to integrate the E120?
A1. Negative. When the EV400 Autopilot was installed, a powered and properly terminated SeaTalkng / NMEA 2000 backbone was installed to interface the autopilot's components to one another. It is recommended that the SeaTalkng backbone be extended via an appropriate length of SeaTalkng Backbone Cable to the location of the MFD, where it will be interfaced to the backbone (blue) socket of a SeaTalk to SeaTalkng Converter. The SeaTalk2 (SeaTalkng/NMEA 2000) socket of the MFD will be interfaced to a spur socket (white) within the SeaTalk to SeaTalkng Converter via an A06061 E-Series To SeaTalkng Adapter Cable. SeaTalk to SeaTalkng Converter Cable supplied with the E22158 SeaTalk to SeaTalkng Converter Kit will be interfaced to the SeaTalk (yellow) socket of the SeaTalk to SeaTalkng Converter and to a D224 SeaTalk Junction Block. A SeaTalk Cable having press-fit 3-pin plugs on each end (one plug will need to be removed) will also be plugged into the D244 SeaTalk Junction Block. The SeaTalk/Alarm Cable will be unplugged from the MFD's SeaTalk/Alarm socket. Finally, the SeaTalk Cable's remaining plug will be removed and spliced to the SeaTalk/Alarm Cable (yellow to yellow, shield to black; all other leads will not be used and will be insulated to prevent shorting).

In summary, the following items would require to interface the E-Series Classic MFD to the Evolution autopilot:
- E22158 SeaTalk to SeaTalkng Converter Kit
- an appropriate length of SeaTalkng Backbone Cable
- A06061 E-Series To SeaTalkng Adapter Cable
- D244 SeaTalk Junction Block
- an appropriate length of SeaTalk Cable having press-fit 3-pin plugs on each end
- a compatible CF memory card containing the E-Series Classic MFD v5.69 software update.

Good Morning,

Updated my system drawing. It is attached.

If the drawing is correct, my only concern is the wiring between
the ST60+, RS125GPS and the D244. (the SeaTalk 1 network)

The GPS's other 3 wires will not be connected? (will be insulated)

The ST60+ and the GPS will get power AND data from the yellow and shield connection?

As always, thanks to Raymarine for the support.

Mark

Mark,

Q1. Updated my system drawing. It is attached. If the drawing is correct, my only concern is the wiring between the ST60+, RS125GPS and the D244. (the SeaTalk 1 network)
A1. Your drawing appears to be correct.

Q2. The GPS's other 3 wires will not be connected? (will be insulated)
A2. Negative. The RS125's red and green leads will be spliced to the red lead of a SeaTalk Cable which will in turn be connected to the D244 SeaTalk Junction Block. RS125's brown and black/shield leads will be spliced to the shield lead of the aforementioned SeaTalk Cable. Finally, the RS125's yellow leads will be spliced to the yellow lead of the aforementioned SeaTalk Cable.

Q3. The ST60+ and the GPS will get power AND data from the yellow and shield connection?
A3. Not quite. See the response to Q2.

EV-400 added, now integrated with E120 Classic.
System drawing updated. Hopefully it will help others.
Thanks for the GREAT guidance from Raymarine!

Hi Chuck,

I deleted my drawing from an earlier post as it was incorrect.
It is waiting for Raymarine approval.

After doing this, the correct/final drawing in my post #7 also went away.

Do I need to attach a "new" final drawing?

Mark,

Your earlier drawing was indeed deleted. However, the drawing from 08-29-19 03:23 PM is indeed still an attachment to that post. Please verify that you are logged in when viewing attachments.
