Default Bare RayMarine ST6001+ Autopilot?

Can anyone tell me if the control/display head for a RayMarine ST6001+
can be used to drive an actuator directly, if done so thru relays?

I ask because it appears that the ST5001 and ST4000 do exactly that, for
low current devices.

My application: I have an old, reliable BenMar rotary actuator that is
built like a brick s@#$house, but the control panel in the cockpit is
getting old and could use upgrading.
