Interfacing via SimNet
The TP22 and TP32 Tillerpilots are linked to other SimNet-compatible
equipment via the integral SimNet cable and plug in the bulkhead
socket.
All SimNet units (Instruments, Chartplotters, Radars, Autopilots, etc.)
use the same single cable to share data on the high speed network.
If there are no spare SimNet ports convenient, a three-way cable
joiner can be used to create an additional port.

¼ Note: It is not necessary to plug the Tillerpilot directly into any
equipment that you wish to share data with – all data is transmitted
across the whole bus network.
