By chance you did not place those live units on the J1939 network as opposed to the nema 2k network by mistake? The tees on the right side of the console are N2k while the tees on the left side are...

Thanks for the Video. It appears they are using a basic non nema gateway version. version 4.62 is a dead giveaway.

Engine info is sourced from Merc VesselView Link. It is mounted behind the console graph.

Thanks, when you press the power button on the fob the mercmonitor will power on. In that process it will display the model level and few screens giving other config info. That is the info I would...

Ok then if that is case the transducers are connected directly to the nema connected blue can. The blue can is mounted in starboard behind the cracking battery. You will see a blue light on the...

Does your boat have the gauge in the splash well? The reason I ask there are two different implementations of the blue can.

Don may want to chime in here, but I believe the section where you read about Adjusting the helm ID only applies if multiple VVLs are installed with their own mercury monitor and or a MercMonitor is...

the 3100 is Ethernet connected thus the live will benefit from fish reveal hd. The 3100 processes that info.

That is trolling motor battery health. The trolling motor must be on and the little blue transducer must be connected.

I ordered the Ranger Steps for my z520r. In order to install i removed the fiberglass trailer step and cut the mounting flanges off. Grind them down, and repair the road armor and re pin the strip....

You are correct, have a suspicion that with the mercMonitor they are using a Level3 for gateway functions and not installing VVL. Just wanting to confirm.

I posted this question on the Ranger z520r / z521r Facebook page but got no responses. So here goes:

Questions for those that have the optional MercMonitor in their R Boat.


Does the boat...

The Ride System uses the Point 1 for GPS PGNs. This is all handled over the NEMA 2000 network.

During the re-set of the MM, VVL was online and communicating. Durning the MM reboot it displays 'Helm 1." When I go to the VVL configuration screen it shows it is also Helm 1 & Instance 1. The...

Thanks Don, I did as you instructed. It still shows as Helm-1. Is Helm and Station different things in this case? I cannot see any reference to Station, but maybe it worked, and i just cannot see...

Thanks Don, we will leave MM in non gateway mode, which will prevent N2K communication. So given a single engine do i need to separate the MM and VVL to two different Helm IDs since both say they...

Thanks All, some clarification is indeed in order. Two Boats involved regarding my questions and follow-up questions. Both are Ranger Z520Rs and both have VesselView Link current software version...

Thanks Don, as a follow up is there any way to easily see if the VVL has latched as station 2?

Noticed on the VVL configuration screen it defaults to helm 1 but can be changed to 2. Is this what...

Question, 250 PRO XS 4s (3B172310): Don a question regarding if both a MercMonitor Level 1 and VesselView Link were installed on the network if there would be issues regarding master instruments,...

Future support for gigabit Ethernet. Current implementation is 100 megabit hence Rj45 8 pins with only 5 pins in use. Gigabit uses all 8 pins of the rj45 connector. Suspect they went with 12...
