I realize the Autopilot upgrade will come out in the next software upgrade.

Where will the future DSAB servo connections be made?

Thanks  Tim

this is my guess... The current green/Blue AP DSAP connections correspond the the network green/blue wires (on the DB9). The two other wires in the network (blue/wht and green/wht) connect to the matching colors on the AP servos. The other servo connections (power, gnd, disconnect remain the same). Pretty simple.

I have my AP servos connected to my D10A via legacy DSAB via a DSAB terminal strip and the grn/wht and blue/wht servo wires connected to the SV network. When the S/W is ready all I have to do is swap the servo green and blue wires over to the green and blue network terminal strip connection and reconfigure the AP servos for SV.

1. Power/ground/disengage, self-explanatory. Do not use a the Aux (orange) Gnd (black) source from the D9.
2. Servo Green to D9 Green (1A)
3. Servo Blue to D9 Blue (1B)
4. Servo Wht/Grn to D9 Wht/Grn (2A)
5. Servo Wht/Blu to D9 Wht/Blu (2B)

This means you need one splitter per servo (2 total for two-axis), and that you need a male D9 connector terminating the servo wiring to connect to the splitter D9 female connector.
