I have an old Ah800 micro that I found at a yard sale but it came with some modifications by the user. My goal is to use this for my tender, Achilles SU18 with a 40hp tiller. I want to use it for trolling slow for salmon and just simple autopilot while fishing. I'll let you know how the rigging goes to an inflatable later. haha
I am trying to figure out the pin out on what this cable possibly went to and if there was any way to find the male end anywhere. It would save me some splicing as there isn't much room for error as it was cut close to the unit. The middle hole is not a connection. Old NEMA?Ah800.jpeg Any ideas?

Looks like the connector used on ST1000 and ST2000 tiller pilots (You can down load the owners manuals for these and your AH800micro from Raymarine's website )

But it could have been wired however the previous owner fancied.
This is the diagram in the manual

But change it to a Bulgin Bucaneer plug and socket
 
I've looked through all the manuals and there is nothing about wiring?
The manual for the AH800 micro says

DrI Plugs are NLA which is why I suggest using a Bulgin Bucaneer plug and socket if you don't have both plug and socket of the type you show

The above tells you the polarity colour code and recommends cable size.

I am sure there is enough information in the above snip to enable you to wire the AH

You will almost certainly have to extend the wiring somehow . If you are brave enough open the unit and replace the existing cable. I've never dared open my analog AH1000
