I have a brand new wired remote that I bought for the ST4000 8 or 10 years ago that I never installed,
I would be happy to sell it for, say, 75 bucks plus shipping – if anyone is interested. Contact me off list Bill Coleman C&C 39 Erie, PA From: CnC-List [mailto:cnc-list-boun...@cnc-list.com] On Behalf Of Dave S via CnC-List Sent: Thursday, September 01, 2016 11:20 AM To: C&c Stus List Cc: Dave S Subject: Re: Stus-List EV 100 Autopilot Thanks gentlemen! my P70 is mounted in a pod, on an arm, and can be turned. I don't much like the idea of twisting it 'round but I can. Fred, great info, thanks. I don't really want to implement an nmea0183 wireless remote, so for me its a cost benefit question of MFD vs p70. (or nothing) Stupidly I bought an actisense USB n2k gateway, when maybe I should have considered a more expensive wireless gateway, including, possibly, the raymarine mfd. Truth is, the idea of locking into an instantly obsolete proprietary mfd bugs me when tablets are cheap, versatile, and adaptable, and n2k exists as a supposed standard.) Am I correct in assuming that raycontrol will only work with a raymarine MFD, and not with a generic N2k wireless gateway? Conversely, could the Raymarine MFD's wireless capability feed n2k sentences to another chartplotter app? (or have they locked that down as well) This would allow not only raycontrol on the ipad, but a redundant tablet-based chartplotter. in addition to my wind, weather, and AIS apps, all on one device. I could then use a bigger portable and more versatile tablet(s), with a more compact mfd, located anywhere. (FYI I have a garmin GLO Bluetooth GPS antenna, plus a garmin n2k antenna on the network, plus the onboard ipad GPS antenna... lotsa redundancy.)
