Connecting Isomatch Tellus Go as second terminal alongside Muller Electronik Touch 800

Does anyone know which cable I need to be able to daisy-chain my IsoMatch Tellus Go onto my Muller Electronik Touch 800? The Touch 800 is part of an Isobus retrofit to a non-Isobus tractor, so needs to be the main connection on the harness. The Tellus Go has a 9 pin 'InCab' socket as well as the main 16 pin connection for when it is connected in its own tractor to the retrofit Isobus there.

I'm assuming I need to either have a y cable or connect the secondary terminal to Port B on the Touch 800. This is a male d-sub connector, but all cables I seem to be able to find from Muller are to go into Port A, which is a female d-sub connector. To say that I am getting cross-eyed looking at cables is an understatement.

To explain what I am trying to do - I have Task Controller and section control on the Tellus Go, but not on the Touch 800, which runs my drill. I want to use the section control with the drill. I've talked about this with the drill's manufacturer and they are confident it will work, if I can just find which cable I need!

Many thanks

I think I can answer my own question. I erroneously based my understanding of the Muller Elektronik retrofit by assuming it was the same as the Kverneland one. The Kvernland retrofit is hard wired, so the Tellus Go is plugged directly to the external socket. The Muller Elektronik is much more user friendly: the external socket has a 9 pin In-Cab terminus, then there is a cable from there to the screen.

So what I need is a Y cable for 9 pin in-cab to split the loom, then an eye-wateringly expensive cable to plug the Tellus Go into the 9-pin In-Cab socket. The original cable has been superseded and replaced by MT00002287 - CABLE IMT 9P IN-CAB SW SP.

OEM equipment is so expensive - this is why I built my own Autosteer based on AgOpenGPS!

Actually, turned out a little simpler than expected. The 9-pin in-cab to Tellus Go cable (not as expensive as I expected) was all I needed. The Touch 800 simply plugs into the 9 pin in-cab socket on the back of the Tellus Go with its existing cable.
