Note:
You must not connect more than one piece of

FastHeading connection
If you wish to use MARPA (radar target acquisition)
functions on a system without an autopilot connected
using SeaTalk
ng
then you will require a dedicated
FastHeading connection. The connection uses
NMEA 0183 and is made between a compatible
Raymarine autopilot (or FastHeading sensor) and the
multifunction display. The FastHeading connection
is not required if your autopilot is connected using
SeaTalk

Cable suppression ferrite
A suppression ferrite is supplied to ensure that the
compass is not unduly affected by interference and
complies with applicable EMC regulations. This must
be fitted to the fluxgate compass cable, ensuring that:
• the compass cable loops twice through the ferrite;
• the ferrite is no more than 200 mm (8 in) from the
connection at the course computer, and
