Right, I have power run to the bus, power run to the computer as well. it just
seems the pilot is not talking to the network or maybe not getting power out to
the motor....

I installed the X5 last summer with a P70 control head.
The single SeaTalkNG connection to the P70 is required and sufficient to make
the
unit work. At a minimum you will need:
1) Power to the Course Computer. It will not power up from the SeaTalkNG bus.
2) A SeaTalkNG connection to the P70
3) Connecting the fluxgate compass to the Course Computer
4) Connect the Wheel Drive to the Course Computer
5) Power to the SeaTalkNG bus.
Note on #5 - this will mean that the SeaTalkNG cable from the Course Computer
and from the the P70 will need to go into a SeaTalkNG connector, such as the
STNG 5-WAY starter kit P/N T70134, and power supplied to the connector
( A06064 ) with a power cable ( A06049 ).

There is a connector on the Course Computer for SeaTalk, and Raymarine supplies
a SeaTalk cable ( RUL-4001-184-A ) BUT the Course Computer does not act as a
translator / converter between SeaTalk and SeaTalkNG. This is despite

To amplify a bit: there IS a SeaTalkNG connection on the X5 course computer;
but as far as I know, it?s only to get onto the backbone for other data. I?m
not sure you can run the X5 with only a SeaTalkNG control head. The fluxgate
compass and rudder reference transducer connect right to the X5 course
computer, along with the drive unit.
