Raytheon ST1000+ and Pypilot - yebo - 2018-06-01 Hi all, I'm trying to get my St1000+ working with Pypilot. It's connected to OpenPlotter with a serial to usb converter (the one from sailoog website). No problem for basic connexion, but i get this error message: Autopilot errors: no motor controller! Anyone can help me fix this ? Thank you !

Well... I thought that the pilot itself had his own, as it can work standalone. But you are putting a light on my lack of knowledge about autopilots. I will need more details about this. For now, what I undertand is that I should not use Pypilot for this precise case, and try to control it via Opencpn, with "regular" nmea sentences.

I am about to start digging into Autopilot integration. I have a Raymarine St1000 (yeah - don't even get me started, but I am getting broke so no new - yet...) and I want to use it with Openplotter and OpenCpn, and as I understand it, the logical interface for it is Pypilot. I also want the autopilot to be able to receive N2K commands such as waypoints from my B&G Vulcan. This is accomplished through protokoll conversion in SignalK as I understand it. However, I am uncertain how the whole shebang ties in together and I need some help. I (will) have an MPU9250 attached to my RPI, so that will be in place. Do I simply attach the ST1000 to my Rpi with a serial to USB RS232 connector, enable Signal K conversion to NMEA0183 and then what? Can I use a simple USB to TTL serial cable like this: https://www.electrokit.com/en/product/cable-usb-to-ttl-3-pin-rx-tx-gnd-3-3v-male/ Also - can I use the Raymarine Autopilot app in Signal K or is that for NMEA2000 only? I've really TRIED to search the forum for answers, but I am striking out here, so please help. In the long run I would like to be able to create events controlling my autopilot - preferably with as little extra hardware as possible. RE: Raytheon ST1000+ and Pypilot - northwind - 2020-02-19 ST1000 will only communicate using SeaTalk, the ST1000+ has an NMEA interface as well. So you need to convert between NMEA and SeaTalk 1.
