See the mercurymarine website and go to the Smartcraft section. You will see a short video on the display. It really is awesome and the data is just great. If I had known it was available, there wouldn't be too many gauges on my dash. I'm going to talk to a Mercury dealer today about the final costs. Will post of my findings. Ron |
Re: Smartcraft for 525EFI
Actually, I met a fiberglass guy last week. I'm in CT now and won't return to Florida until the end of next week. when I get back, he's going to take a look at my dash and then let me know what is needed to be done. Will post when I speak with him. Shouldn't be much to do.

Re: Smartcraft for 525EFI
Smartcraft uses data that the MEFI outputs and has output since the early 90's EFI engines.
Sadly Smartctaft is looking for the MEFI 3 datastream. I wish I was engineer enoough to grab that data and display it on a dash board monitor. RINDA Technologies does it on the Mercury tester that I have and they also can display and anlyze the datstream through some Windows pc software they sell for around $500. The data my hand-held RINDA tester shows in perfect--RPM, spark, timing, injector timings, coolant and oil temps, fuel consumption in addition to error codes and more. Any engineers game to develop a dashboard display system ??? |
Re: Smartcraft for 525EFI
The Dragon uses the SmartCraft we hooked two monitors together [interface] the new verison is system view Race edition. The guage would be for looks only because it's the last to receive the information. The motor will go to default before the guage can receive the information of what is wrong. cb

Just for fun, a screen shot of my Diacom (Rinda) software. This is more for diagnostics than a dash display of course, but it gives you some idea of what a dash display might look like.
