Hi Folks.

Despite a very broken marina industry in S FL I am planning to upgrade the SwampLizard to 496s as soon as I can get "permission" to haul my boat.

Looking to add some smarts to the dash gauges I have. Anyone got a functional Vessel View 7 and cables lying around? I'd like to keep GPS and EFI stats separated but always in view.

worth a shot!

thanks

Make it easy on yourself and just get the Vessel View Mobile dongle and use a tablet/Smartphone to connect.

From what I understand you can connect nema 2000 to the 496 motors. If I keep current boat that will be in the future. All garmin systems.

...double post

Which dongle? I use something in my diesel van that works like a charm. I assume Merc requires a special dongle.

It is a Bluetooth transmitter that you hook into the Smartcraft backbone on your engines. Twin's will require a junction box. Once it is all setup, you download the VVM app onto your Smartphone or Tablet and you have all the Smartcraft data.

Can it clear codes too? Or just view the data
