Ranger Ride icon?

Can anyone tell me what this round icon that reads 0% is?

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

Thanks Chuck, I've downloaded the PROViewLink app too. Not seeing my Lithium TM batteries. I have a blue CT connected. I guess I'll need to call Pro Charging Systems.

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

The only gauges I have are the RIDE and MercMonitor in the dash

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 device if you look closely. Do you now get a reading for the trolling motor if the trolling motor is powered on?

A guestion for you, on the MercMonitor, that I wanted to ask of someone that had one installed on the R Boat. What level of monitor is shown when it is powered on? (Basic (Level 0), level 1, 2, or 3)? Depending on your answer I may have a few more questions if you don’t mind.

I'll check it out in a bit. I was on the phone with Pro Charging yesterday. They sent me the diagram of36 Volt Trolling - 12 Volt Starting - Marine - Lithium with CT.jpg where the CT, green and black wires need to be attached.

My MercMonitor defaults to this. I haven't played with it very much. 20240420_100958.jpg

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 like to know. Thanks

[dam1960]

No problem, I'll let you know.

Chuck, sent you an email with video of power/boot up of MercMonitor

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

Could you clarify the differences between the two blue-cans ?

0% on the RIDE for each battery icon.
ProView Link app see the cranking, trolling batteries and the Blue-Can.
no visible blue light.

note: i'm sorting out several data source gremlins with my 'new' R boat.
2024 re-rigged (factory) with my 2022 batteries (dealer reinstalled) ... and there are some strange issues now w/ RIDE,
MM (non NMEA holding firm to 'station 1') and VVL Link - non Mobile.
