ST 60 problems

[Gäst Ann]

Hi. I have the following system that if possible you could advice me how to integrate them into a fully working system on our sailing boat. Autohelm ST2000 ST 60 TRIdata with transducers ST 60 ANALOGUE COMPASS HEAD DISPLAY A22007, No transducer or fluxgate is that required? Garmin GPS 72, speaks NMEA. ST60 MULTI VIEW DISPLAY HEAD DIGITAL A22003. Now nothing is connected together. However there are cables installed for the ST50 can those be used? There are a connection box for the SeaTalk language for the ST50 but the connection doesn´t seem to be the same. Do you have new servers that connect all systems and speaks SeaTalk and NMEA? I would like to have everything connected together in order to use them on my laptop. How do you advice to do that? What articles do I need more? Does the ANALOGUE COMPASS HEAD DISPLAY work without Fluxgate? Does the MULTI VIEW DISPLAY HEAD DIGITAL display NMEA information from the GPS? Thank you in advance!

Dear Ann, Even if the connectors of the ST60 and ST50 are different, the Seatalk bus in the ST2000 , ST60 and ST50 are compatible. That means that if you connect red, yellow and screen colorwise, then you can get heading from the pilot on both the multiwiev and the compass display.And boatspeed/depth will be shown on the tridata instrument. To implement NMEA into the Seatalk bus requires an interface, E85001or similar. The NMEA/Seatalk interface also provides a RS232C port to be connected to a PC. best regard AH
