I'm using the SeaTalk data connector as a bilge alarm (on my original MacArthur V1.0).
The original documentation says that in this scenario the ST GND jumper should be set to open. This is incorrect, it needs to be set to closed.
Looking at the V1.1 schematic, it looks like the jumper has been removed. Will the data connector still work as a bilge alarm?
Also, I like how the connector is labelled "Data", since it has lots of potential uses (digital in, digital out, pulse or SeaTalk). But the LED is labelled "SEATALK1", could it be renamed to "DATA" instead?
