Compatibility FAQ:
- The SmartConnect gateways are not able to be configured from your MFD. Configuration via the Mercury Marine App or Smarftcraft Manager App Android or IOS is required for full functionality. Configuration includes setting the engine model, serial and number of engines, and setting up any tanks connected to your engines via their boat/fuel harness. A separate wifi connection to the device being used to configure the module is also required during the initial configuration.
- This device will also work with Simrad NSX, Simrad NSX Ultrawide, Simrad NSS 4 & Simrad Mercury VesselView 4, however if you have any of these MFD on your network then we recommend the Level 2 module which has the same functionality at less cost.
- If you already have a NMEA gateway installed (such as a VesselView Screen, Smart Gauge, engine gateway, or VesselView link, then you will need to disconnect the NMEA 2000 connection from that gateway when connecting the SmartConnect gateway. Multiple engine gateways may cause duplication issues on your gauge display on your MFD.
- For single engine applications that do not have SmartCraft architecture (an available junction box at the helm), you can install a module directly on the engine (when selecting the under cowl option) - you will need to pruchase part 8M0173704. This setup does require the ten-pin termination resistor, typically yellow and on the engine, as it is included inside the module wiring.
- For boats with SmartCraft architecture in place, use an open port (remove weather cap) in a junction box under your helm or replace your junction box with a higher capacity unit if all ports are already used.
- For multi-engine applications you will need a different module, see part 8M0173703.
- Please note at this stage the module requires a wired NMEA2000 connection to your MFD. The Bluetooth and WIFI are for phone/tablet use, diagnostics and configuration.
