    Exactly! Hopefully it would stay in Que untill you were back in wifi range. But that's above my pay grade!

    That is the conclusion I came up with so far but obviously it's not 100% until I get my unit installed in my engine. I will be getting the adaptor next week just as soon as European Marine opens back up on Monday. Too bad I can't play with it until my next fishing trip as my boat is out in AZ and I'm in CA.

    Do you folks know if the VVM will work on a 2005 Optimax? I went to purchase one today from a Merc dealer. I was told this may not work unless I have the yellow "terminator" plug on my motor. I have what looks to me as the smartcraft connection, however have a grey cover instead of a yellow one.

    Serial #: 1B117398

    I would call Mercury tech support, with your serial number they can pull up all kinds of information about your engine and tell you what you have and whether if the grey cover means you cannot use the mobile adaptor.

    Mines a 05 also and it works, but mine is a bit after yours #1B119184. Mine did have the yellow cap.

    It will work- though you may also need to order a terminating resistor cap.

    If ordering through Rhonda- she has PLENTY of those on hand, too.

    Where do you go to see engine fault codes on the App? Do they automatically come up as they alarm real time?

    I posted something similar in another thread but I think I should have posted here, sorry for duplicating..

    I have installed the Vessel View Mobile on my 2004 200EFI 3.0L, s/n 0T995854. My Smartcraft harness did not have a yellow terminating resistor cap and did not work until I installed one (thanks Don & Rhonda!).

    Now that I have it up and running, it is alerting me with 4 different codes:
    Code 131 - TPS not working
    Code 82 - Oil level sensor not working
    Code 75 - fuel level sensor not working
    Code 104 - seawater temp sensor not working (I do see a temp displayed on the App though)

    While the motor is a 2004, it is virtually brand new (18 hours). It appears to be operating fine, and I have a hunch the codes might not be correct (guessing Smartcraft might have been upgraded since 2004). Am I correct, or do I really have some bad codes? If my Smartcraft system is outdated, is there anything I can to fix it?

    I guess I should note that the motor max RPM is about 5200, and I am confident my set-up should let me get to at least 5700....I am still learning to drive this Triton TR196, so I figured this might be just me, but it's got me thinking about the TPS code 131, maybe its an accurate code and is limiting WOT?

    Any help or tips would be appreciated.

    Have the codes cleared.......run the boat for a while, then check for codes.

    Good idea. I assume you are talking about clearing codes from the computer. Is there a way that I can do this myself, or do I need to take it somewhere? I think the vessel view mobile has something that lets me "ignore" the codes.... I wasn't sure if this is a "one time ignore", or if it would never show this again. I am guessing this is not actually clearing any codes, but am not sure.

    Dealer is the only one that can clear old codes.

    Installed vessel view mobile with new powerhead this past weekend and I'm not seeing engine hours. Also some faults occur when I start it on the muffs and when I click on the faults it says must login to view them. I am logged in when this happens though.

    Please open a separate thread for this question, and provide the required engine information. Thanks!

    Appears to be vaporware at this point.

    Companion website has not yet gone live, as I understand it.
