Upgrading Raymarine Tridata

[jimmy_the_builder]

I've got an old Raymarine ST50 tridata installed in my T37; I've bought an ST60 tridata head, but the transducers going into the ST50 have the older-style round connectors whereas the ST60 accepts the newer style curved connectors.

Does anyone know if an adaptor for these transducer connectors is available, and if so, where I can get one?

Thanks
Jimmy

You could ask Raymarine if it is possible to just cut off the plugs and rewire the old one onto the new instrument's plug by matching the cable colours. Or you could just see if the cable colours are the same and try it yourself.

Just cut the plug off and put some cable spade fittings on the end (the female version) - this is what we have...
wire should have corresponding colour coding...

Excellent, thanks for this advice - I shall get busy with my wire cutters (!).

Thanks again
Jimmy

Ive done this.
Colour coding is the same.
