The Raymarine ECI-100 Universal Engine & Control Interface, part number E70227, is designed to bridge engine instrumentation and drive-by-wire steering systems with Raymarine autopilot and navigation displays. This unit provides a single point of connection for engine data and autopilot control, eliminating the need for multiple gateways. It is suitable for vessels of various sizes, enabling the display of engine performance data, fuel consumption, and alarms on compatible Raymarine multifunction displays running LightHouse v8 or later. The ECI-100 integrates with industry-standard NMEA2000 or SAE J1939 Engine Data Buses from manufacturers such as Volvo Penta, Yamaha Marine (Command Link Plus only), Caterpillar, and Yanmar Marine. It also facilitates a seamless autopilot steering interface to Raymarine's Evolution EV-2 Drive By Wire autopilot system, leveraging its 9-axis sensor and adaptive control capabilities. This interface aims to simplify the integration of marine engine data and autopilot functions into a unified display environment.
The ECI-100 connects to NMEA2000 or SAE J1939 Engine Data Buses used by major marine engine manufacturers, including Volvo Penta, Yamaha Marine (Command Link Plus only), Caterpillar, and Yanmar Marine.
The ECI-100 offers reliable integration with Raymarine's latest generation of multifunction displays, from aSeries to gS Series, provided they are running LightHouse v8 or later. It also delivers a seamless autopilot steering interface to Raymarine's Evolution EV-2 Drive By Wire autopilot system.
The ECI-100 identifies parameters such as engine speed, oil temperature, engine temperature, oil pressure, fuel rate, boost pressure, battery potential, transmission oil pressure, total engine hours, and fuel tank level, among others.
The ECI-100 connects directly to the NMEA2000 or SAE J1939 Engine Data Bus. It then connects to NMEA2000 networks using the SeaTalkng cabling system, with an industry-standard DeviceNet port for manufacturer-specific CAN bus cabling.
