does Tiller Pilot send heading data?

Does anyone know if the Autohelm ST1000+/2000+ send data from the internal compass to either NMEA0183 or SeaTalk?
I'm connecting my ST1000+ to my N2K network (using an N2K->0183 converter). Right now it's a unidirectional connection (wind to ST1000 for steer to wind), and I use the serial input for 0183 GPS data from my VHF. But if I could get magnetic heading/bearing from the ST1000+, I would add another RS232 module and use it for set/drift and leeway calculations.

No they don't send anything out. They can only receive data via NM0183 or Seatalk.

Thanks for saving me the trouble of hooking it up.
