Title: Attempts at Real Time Navigation with an IBook
#5
I have an ST60 system on my Jeanneau Sun Odyssey 37.2 and you can upload/download waypoint data.

The configuration is ST60 tri-data, S1 autopilot with ST6001 control head and a Raynav 300 GPS. The Raynav has Seatalk and NMEA connections so I used the Seatalk bus to connect to the S1 autopilot's second Seatalk bus (the first bus was used to connect to the instruments tri-data and control head). The NMEA connections on the Raynav were brought out to a DB9 connector at the nav table.

I have a PB G4 1GHz which uses as Keyspan USA-19QW USB Serial Adapter to connect to the boat's electronics system. It works fine. The major issue is that you need to set the Raynav 300 into waypoint upload mode before starting the download from the PB.
