Multiple Outboard Instancing

Multiple outboard installations require the transom
position of each outboard be identified.
Engine identity is set and stored in the EMM of
each engine. By default the EMM of all outboards
is set to instance zero (0) at the factory. Out-
boards are identified as Instance 0 through 3,
from port to starboard, up to four engines.
Engine identity of each outboard must be set
manually or with Evinrude Diagnostics software
v 6.1 or higher. Use the following chart to assign
the engine instance number to the outboard's
position on the transom.
Number of
Outboards
1 0
2 0
3 0
4 0
If duplicate engine identity numbers are detected,
the affected outboard's NEUTRAL indicator LED
will flash rapidly.
Manual Instancing Method
WARNING
Do NOT vary from this procedure.
Pressing any other button on the remote con-
trol or switch panels other than the STOP
switch or turning the key OFF will exit from
this process.
This can cause the system to react unpredict-
ably. If any other button is pressed acciden-
tally, turn the key switch OFF and start the
procedure over.
When manually setting engine instance, start with
the port engine and work toward the starboard
engine. Follow these steps EXACTLY:

1. With the key switch off, disconnect the remote
control (private) network cables from all
engines.
2. Push and hold the SYNC button while turning
the key switch ON. Continue holding the SYNC
button for at least 2 seconds.
3. Connect the remote control (private) network
cable to the first (port) engine, powering the
EMM. Then press the STOP button for that
engine. The control will send an instance mes-
sage with appropriate instance to the EMM.
4. After setting the instance on engine #1: Dis-
connect the private network cable from engine
#1. Connect the private network cable to
engine #2. Then press the STOP button for
that engine.
If this installation has more than two engines, go
to the step 5. If this is a dual engine installation, go
to step 7.
5. After setting the instance on engine #2: Dis-
connect the private network cable from engine
#2. Connect the private network cable to
1
engine #3. Then press the STOP button for
2
that engine.
3
If this installation has more than three engines go
to the step 6. If this is a triple engine installation,
go to step 7.
6. After setting the instance on engine #3: Dis-
connect the private network cable from engine
#3. Connect the private network cable to
engine #4. Then press the STOP button for
that engine.
7. After setting the instance on the last engine,
turn the key switch OFF. Connect the private
network cable to all engines. Then turn the key
switch ON to complete the instancing process.
Diagnostic Software Method
Record the model number and serial number from
the serial number tag of each engine. Make note
the transom position of each engine.
Use Evinrude Diagnostics software v 6.1 or higher
to set engine instance.
1. Connect the PC to the NMEA 2000 network.
Turn the key switch ON.
