Raymarine Link For Volvo

RAYMARINE Link For Volvo Penta

Unlock the full power of your vessel´s integrated electronics with the RAYMARINE Link for Volvo Penta. This essential accessory is designed to seamlessly bridge the gap between your high-performance Volvo Penta engine and your state-of-the-art Raymarine navigation system, creating a unified and powerful on-board information network. By integrating your engine´s vital statistics directly onto your multifunction display, you can achieve a cleaner, more streamlined helm and gain unparalleled situational awareness. Monitor critical engine data such as RPM, oil pressure, coolant temperature, and fuel consumption alongside your charting, radar, and sonar data for a complete and intuitive boating experience.

This crucial link component is the key to centralizing your vessel´s command and control. Instead of referencing multiple analog gauges, all essential information is delivered directly to your Raymarine Axiom or other SeaTalkng compatible displays. This not only enhances safety by keeping your eyes focused on a single screen but also allows for advanced fuel management, helping you optimize performance and calculate range with greater accuracy. For vessels equipped with compatible Volvo Penta systems, this cable facilitates the connection needed for full autopilot control, transforming your navigation and handling capabilities.

Key Benefits:

* Centralized Data Display: View real-time engine performance data directly on your Raymarine multifunction display, eliminating the need for separate gauges.
* Enhanced Fuel Management: Accurately monitor fuel flow and consumption to optimize engine efficiency and extend your cruising range.
* Simplified Helm Configuration: Reduce clutter and create a modern, integrated glass bridge look at your helm station.
* Full Autopilot Integration: Enables the connection of a Raymarine EV-2 autopilot core for precise steering control with compatible Volvo Penta IPS or Aquamatic systems.
* Plug-and-Play Connectivity: Designed for straightforward integration into the Raymarine SeaTalkng and Volvo Penta EVC networks.

Main Features:

* Raymarine Cable Link for use with Volvo Penta engines
* Facilitates robust communication between the engine EVC data bus and the SeaTalkng navigation network

Cables

For older Volvo Penta engine EVC systems where no multi-link hub is available, it is necessary to use the Raymarine Cable Link for use with Volvo Penta in conjunction with a Y-splitter cable (E70241). This connects into the system as per the diagram.

Connecting the cables as per the official Raymarine installation diagram will allow the ECI-100 to interface between the Volvo Penta engine EVC data bus, and the Raymarine navigation STng bus.

If a Volvo Penta engine IPS or Aquamatic steering system is fitted, then connecting a Raymarine EV-2 as shown in the diagram will give full autopilot steering control.

For engine data only, the connection between the ECI-100 and Volvo Penta engine EVC system is identical (as shown in the diagram) but fitting the Raymarine EV-2 is not required. The EV-2 is connected to the Raymarine backbone via a SeaTalkng spur cable (white SeaTalkng plug on EV-2 to be used).
