Tim — you can’t power a SeaTalkNG bus through the SeaTalk1 connection on the
converter; you’ll need to add a short SeaTalkNG backbone cable to a “T”, then
use the power (red) cable that comes with the converter kit to get 12 volts
onto the SeaTalkNG bus. Then you should get data from the instruments added to
the bus with the AIS data. It looks from the GPSMAP 400/500 Installation
Instructions like the MF will accept PGNs (data sentences) for water speed and
depth, and wind.
