Re: Raymarine SeatalkNG cable question

In my case I don't have a Seatalk bus but just a single Seatalk instrument, an ST40 Bidata display. The speed and depth transducers connect to the ST40 and get their power from from it. The ST40...

Re: Raymarine SeatalkNG cable question

Thanks. Was that a Raymarine manufactured cable with STng connector on one end and a Devicenet connector on the other?

Did you connect the Vesper as a spur/drop directly onto the Raymarine...

Re: Raymarine SeatalkNG cable question

Re: Raymarine SeatalkNG cable question

I went onto the Raymarine tech support forums and asked about this issue and got a very detailed reply from the Raymarine tech...

Re: Raymarine SeatalkNG cable question

As I understand it and according to Raymarine, they are 100% standard NMEA2000 compatible with their SeatalkNG system (but not the old Seatalk) except for the connectors that are specific to...

Re: Raymarine SeatalkNG cable question

Here's where I'm at on the converter.

I am connecting my old Seatalk speed and depth display to my NMEA2000 network. That requires several steps. First I need a Raymarine converter to turn the old Seatalk signals into the NMEA2000...
