    Smart Craft Speedometer Question??????

    I am looking for a speedometer that reads 120MPH. All the ones I have found all say 80 MPH. Will i need anything else besides pluging it into the smartcraft harness to make it work?

    Thanks for any help in advance!!!!!!!!

    To utilize a speed at that high a speed, you'll need to replace the pitot sender on the engine (higher PSI model sender). I can assist you with the correct sender if you decide to go that way.....

    Hi EuropeanAM,

    Can you please give more information and what parts I would need. I just installed a 300XS and a smartcraft gauge. I was told that I could link from it to the speedometer.

    Thanks

    You can link from the Smartcraft Gauge to a System Link (Smartcraft) Speedometer.

    Give me a call with your serial number tomorrow, and I'll see if we can't get you set up with what you need.

    Hi Don,

    Nice talking to you today. Can you send me the link on networking my Lowrance with a smartcraft 120mph Speedometer. I really appreciate you taking the time to answer my questions.

    Here you go, Stacy:

    Be sure to read the text portion... just below the "color diaghram". It covers some critical items regarding "what data strings should, and should not be active".

    Let me know which color Speedo you're interested in.
