    To link a Mercury to any unit you need the NMEA 2000 network along with a few options items from Mercury....IMO, the best would be the Mercmonitor Level 1, its an actual digital gauge that will display motor info and has a NMEA pigtail that will connect to the network. There is a Vessel View module (black box) that tucks under the console and connect to the network. It looks as if that box is limited to Lowrance units.
