NEW Ray EV200 Auto Pilot Install
I also did the install of the new Raymarine EV200 Autopiloy. I had a vintage RayPiloy 650 that was tired. the pump was fine though. I have built in a Ray e97, and have a Ray e127 on a grunion mount. I removed the old pilot head, then made a new dash from starboard. Carefully cutting and placing. Here is is, from start to finish. I will commission it next weekend as soon as I get a longer cable for the EV sensor.

Re: NEW Ray EV200 Auto Pilot Install
Looking good T 
I see you have two terminal blocks but I suspect it's only one network, correct? If so, you should only have 2 terminator resistors. It'll work with three but you may get some weird readings or strange things happening. You should also get plugs for the ports not being used.

Re: NEW Ray EV200 Auto Pilot Install
Yes, the first block was for the 2 display/gps/radar transducer network. Then a jumper to the other block. I did get plugs and capped everything off. I have to say it was an intimidating installation, but very easy. I made it harder than I truly was.

Re: NEW Ray EV200 Auto Pilot Install
So if you have a jumper to the other block it's a single network and there should only be two terminator resistors, right? If one of the displays or peripheral has a terminator resistor on it then you should only have one resistor on one of the blocks. A network should only have one resistor at each end.
