Can this be used to connect B&G Vulcan plotter with Raymarine EV-200 Autopilot?
Hi, Dragos. I am not sure about Vulcan, būt I'm connecting together Raymarine, Garmin and Lowrance devices by their nmea2000 ports. I use Seatalkng as a backbone, and connect Garmin/Lowrance by the seatalk/nmea adapter cable. Note, you cannot connect two devices directly, only using the backbone in between.
Which adapter should i use to connect B&G backbone with Raymarine ng backbone?
If chartplotter is a single b&g instrument in your network, then you probably don't have the "b&g backbone". In such a case you just buy nmea2000 to Seatalkng adapter cable and plug it between Vulcan's nmea2000 port and your existing Raymarine backbone, if there is at least one free slot. Electrically nmea2000 and Seatalkng are the same. If there are no free slots in your Seatalkng network, then you will need to extend the Seatalkng backbone with the t-branch and some peace of Seatalkng backbone cable to make additional slot. Read your Raymarine manual for how to do it.
If you have SeaTalk-NG cabling on board and the B&G plotter is to be used as an additional Devicenet component in this network and the B&G plotter has an NMEA2000 connector, then this adapter cable is the right one.
I have plotter, radar and depth on B&G backbone and autopilot on Raymarine. I want to add an i60 wind instrument and use one of its 2 ports for connecting with spur cable to the seatalk backbone and the other port, using this adapter, for the b&g backbone. Is it going to work with this cable?
