SYSTEMS

Engine Monitor System

All remote controlled outboards must be equipped
with an engine monitoring syste m to warn the
operator of conditions that could damage the out-
board.
The eng ine monitor system includes sensors on
the outboard and oil tank, a warning horn, a dash-
mounted display, and related wiring.
The outb oard's EMM sen ds information about
monitored functions to:
SystemCheck gauges, or
•
An I-Command or ICON display.
•
Operating the outboa rd without
IMPORTANT:
an engine monito r will void the warranty for fail-
ures related to monitored functions.

SystemCheck Gauges

SystemCheck g auges a re u sed with mechanical
remote control systems only.
SystemCheck gauges receive mon itored informa-
tion fro m t he o utboard throu gh a Mo dular Wiring
System (MWS) harness.

nections on p. 12.

INFORMATION DISPLAY SYSTEMS

I-Command Displays

I-Command dig ital displays are designed spe cifi-
cally fo r NMEA 2000 cer tified Evinrude E-TEC
outboards. Th ese displays provide enh anced
engine and bo at p erformance information . Multi-
ple f unctions a re integra ted into th e e asy-to-use
displays. Additional displa ys and accessories can
be added with the plug and play design.
I-Command information displays can be used with
either a mechanical remote control system or with
an Evinrude ICON system. For complete installa-
tion instructions, refer to I-Command Installation
Guide.

network must not exceed 100 meters (328 ft.).
* The EMM on Evinrude E-TEC outboards has a
load equivalency number of 1. Less than 50 mA of
the network's power is used by the EMM.
If a mechanical con trol is u sed, the I-Command
network re ceives mo nitored in formation through
an I-Command network

directly to the outboard's EMM. An I-Command
Ignition and Trim harness is required to carry start,
stop, and trim signals to the outboard.

If a n ICON control is use d, the I-Command ne t-
work receives monito red infor mation throug h the
ICON control network gateway.
