I have a Wagner MP640 Autopilot and am trying to interface with a Wagner
510-407 Digital Compass. Problem: the compass has a 12 pin connector and the
CPU unit has a 7 pin connector. The manual says that these units work
together but makes no mention of an adaptor cable nor does it gives the
pin-out assignments so that one could be fabricated. Anyone have a Wagner or
can offer help. Thanks

Wow. Only 2 hits on Google for Wagner MP640. That thing must be "Top
Secret"! One of them is very interesting, however. Email this guy
and I bet he can provide you with the cable or the pinout
arrangements....

He's got all your parts, too! Looks like a collector...(c;

Is it just me or did the US and UK just capture 1/3
of the world's sweetest oil supply? What idiot wants to
GIVE IT BACK?!!

Also found the following, which reveals, among other information, that
Wagner went bankrupt in 1989:

But there may be someone listed there who could answer your question.

You mean, give it back to the people who own it?

Email sent to is never read.

Jastram is run by ex-Wagner guys -- and they can supply Wagner parts.
Paul Wagner is back in business as Auto-Nav. They went bankrupt
because of cash-flow problems andn paperwork requirements on the
steering system for a series of Canadian navy frigates.
