Mike, I think I read the same Ray documentation which seemed to show that one could connect Seatalk and SeatalkNG devices via the SPX-5 controller. I installed my i40 speed system with Seatalk connector wired to the Seatalk ports on the SPX-5. It powers the i40 system, and the speed display works fine.
I am planning on connecting the SPX-5 to my Raymarine e7d via SeatalkNG, and I was hoping the speed data would be sent to the e7d too. But it sounds like this does not work? Bummer! I guess I will need to use a Seatalk to SeatalknNG converter. - Paul E. 1981 C&C Landfall 38 S/V Johanna Rose Carrabelle, FL > On Aug 13, 2015, at 4:05 PM, cnc-list-requ...@cnc-list.com wrote: > > Date: Thu, 13 Aug 2015 12:30:38 -0400 > From: Michael Brown <m...@tkg.ca <mailto:m...@tkg.ca>> > To: cnc-list@cnc-list.com <mailto:cnc-list@cnc-list.com> > Subject: Re: Stus-List Electronics upgrade > Message-ID: <668580532-6...@mail.tkg.ca <mailto:668580532-6...@mail.tkg.ca>> > Content-Type: text/plain; charset="utf-8" > > > When I installed a new SPX/5 Autohelm, i70 display, and converter I found the > Raymarine > documentation a bit disjointed, lacking in a correct example of what I was > doing, and in > one case was wrong in overview.
