Raymarine ACU 200 controlling Wheelpilot motor?

[KeelsonGraham]

Hi All,

I’m hoping to progressively replace my Raymarine ST4000 wheel pilot system with a below-deck unit. A wheepilot is usually controlled by an ACU 100 but my eventual below deck solution requires an ACU 200.

I’d like to start by upgrading everything except the wheel pilot drive. Obviously I don’t want to buy an ACU 100 just for the interim so ideally, during the transition, I’d use an ACU 200 to control the wheel pilot motor.

Is this possible? The Raymarine brochure doesn’t mention this combination, but nor does it specifically exclude it.

Yes, it will work.
