Are you asking about a chartplotter compatible with a Raymarine ST1000 autopilot? I believe you will the answer to your question in these threads. The first thread describes the Raymarine compatible chartplotters. Suggest contacting the chartplotter manufacture's technical service for connection advise before you purchase.
I am looking at buying a new VHF radio with AIS . I like the price and features of the Horizon GX2200, which does a decent job of showing you ships in the area. I currently have a Raymarine Autotiller
Forgive my lack of knowledge here - am I reading this right if I'm starting to think that there is a way to plot a course in software and have the ST1000 steer said course out on the water? Is that such a thing? If so I've got some rabbit holes to go down!

The ST1000 can be hooked up to a chart plotter (such as your typical Garmin) and then be instructed to steer toward a waypoint. I used to have an ST2000 on my boat and wired it to my Garmin 546S. If I activated a waypoint for, say, Avalon Harbor, I could then set the autopilot so that it would steer the boat to that waypoint.
Thank you. Some learning to do! And thanks for the thread Jerry! I'm now diving into OpenPlotter on the Raspberry Pi which can also output to the ST1000.
