Using with Raymarine GPS

If a Raymarine GPS (such as the Raystar 120 or 125) is to be connected to the S1000 Autopilot via NMEA, the NMEA in and out, +ve and -velines must all be correctly connected.

Each time power is applied to an S1000 Autopilot connected to a Raymarine GPS (via NMEA or SeaTalk), the S1000 will set the GPS filtering to WEAK.

CAUTION:

Before making any changes to the Data Cable, disconnect it from the Course Computer.

If it is more convenient to connect the NMEA spur to the GPS without using the NMEA connector, you can remove the connector and prepare the cable end as appropriate for your preferred method of connection. Refer to the wire identification table below, as necessary
