Yacht Devices NMEA2000 J1939 Engine Coupler is compatible with most Volvo Penta, Catapillar, John Deere etc. engines since 2004. By connecting this J1939 Engine coupling adapter between the engine management and the NMEA2000 network, live engine data and alarms are available to MFDs and Chartplotters.
On most vessels with Volvo Penta engines, no more is required than to connect the device to the NEMEA2000 bus and connect the engine cable to a multilink hub or connect it in series with (one of the) EVC tachometers using the Y harness.
Volvo Penta compatibility:
All versions with EVC-B, EVC-C, EVC-D and EVC-E (most modern engines since 2006).
D1 and D2 series with MDI (Mechanical Diesel Interface), such as D2-40F.
EDC III and EDC IV diesel engines (EMS 2.0, EMS 2.2)
with EVC-A MC and EVC-A EC (also known as EVCmc EVCec).
EFI engines with MEFI4B ECU and later, with or without EVC system.
All EGC engines from 2005 and later with or without EVC system.
Some motors (see section IV of the manual) require an adapter cable.
