Grounding Requirements
The remote control network should be grounded
at a SINGLE location. This is normally done at the
network power cable connection and should be
robustly connected to the boat's grounding sys-
tem.
There must be no other ground connections on
the remote control network to avoid ground loops,
which can cause problems with system perfor-
mance.
Maximum Number of Devices
A maximum of 10 devices can be attached to the
remote control network. The number of devices is
limited by the number of hub connections.
6-port hubs are NOT required in all installations.
Refer to Diagrams on p. 107.
IMPORTANT:
Only connect remote control com-
ponents to the remote control network.

Remote Control Network Requirements
Red
The remote control network requires the following
Black
components:
White
•
One remote control
Blue
•
One OFF-ON-START key switch or
Black/Yellow
one master power key switch
•
One START/STOP switch for each engine (mul-
tiple engine installations only)
•
One trim switch panel (3, or 4 engines only)
•
6-port hub (see installation diagrams)
•
One backbone buss cable
•
One, two, three, or four outboards
Installations using an optional second station
requires the following additional components:
•
One remote control
•
6-port hub (see installation diagrams)
•
One emergency stop switch
•
One START/STOP switch for each engine
•
One trim switch panel (3, or 4 engine installa-
tions only)
Load Equivalency
The Engine Management Module (EMM) on Evin-
rude E-TEC G2 outboards has a load equivalency
number of 1. Less than 50 mA of the network's
(CAN) power is used by the EMM.
