I thought my connections would have to be at the engines but this is just info from reading and I am not versed in this NMEA system at all. I will have to start digging under the dash and see what I come up with. If everything goes right with this I want to put a second G05 above the glove box. Once this 1st set-up is all done I can just T into the backbone and it works as a duplicate display, in theory at least.

Well it's been 3 days, what have you figured out?? LOL
Hope you're doing good buddy! TM

sorry for the delay.
Hi
The SmartCraft NMEA Gateway was a clean option to allow most of the engine CAN data to be read on the Garmin devices. It does not "translate" all CAN data but does a good job for most data. I cannot for example get engine error codes to display on the Garmin Chart Plotter. But I am very impressed by how cleanly the Garmin integrates engine data into the displays. I'm still getting used to the post process here so I had some relays stack up. Again sorry to have delay responding. Take Care Vince |

Connecting three engines together for use with NMEA Gateway
Hi all,
I see this is an old post but it's worth a try! I am UK Based and have a 2009 43RS Hunton with triple CMD (Cummins Mercury) diesels which are wired completely independently to each other. Each engine has it's own Smartcraft 6 way junction box at the helm with various analogue gauges each (Oil pressureX3, water tempX3, VoltageX3, RevsX3 drive trimX3). Currently I can plug in the NMEA gateway (Mercury-Mercruiser 98-8M0151748 GATEWAY-CAN P MUL) into any of the 3 engines J-Boxes and receive that engine's data via NMEA on my Garmin Plotter. What i would like to do is link the three engines together so that I can see all three engines at the same time. Each engine is currently configured as starboard 'Master' via the 4 way jumper block on the engine so I believe starboard will remain as Master and then the other will become Slave Port and Slave Port(or starboard) inner via setting the jumper position. What I don't know is how to link the three engines together as I get conflicting information on how to do it. I thought that I needed just two dual engine 10 way jumper harnesses at the Helm J-Boxes.... But I have seen diagrams that indicate other connections might need to be made at the other end of the wiring harnesses see here: Https:// www. drev.se/Upload/DocumentManager/mercruiser/smartwire.pdf sorry can't post links yet! Also different resistors maybe required. Here is hoping someone can help! thanks in advance |
I have no Idea if this will help you at all but worth a read.
