the raven in it is actually a 460 without the nine pin. do i need to find a raven controller that has that?
autosteer is the motor on the steering wheel
No,the 9 pin is for serial communication with another device in a different way.
One hangup you may have with replacing the 460 with EZ-Boom is that your rig must have separate boom switches in the joystick or dash right now. With EZ-Boom, it is necessary that it be in charge of the boom situation and the boom switches on it must be used and the other original switches can not be used. Sometimes this makes the wiring switch over a bit more complex.
An old trick is to get a Raven 440 or 450 that does have boom switches in it and temporarily put it in place of the 460. If the switches on the 440 or 450 can control the boom sections then using EZ-Boom in place of the 460 is fairly easy. EZ-Boom will then be able to control the section valves for autoswath. The original switches should be disabled or tied in the OFF position.
If the 440 or 450 cannot control the boom sections then EZ-Boom won't be able to either. It can still be done but requires some creative rewiring.
