ECI-100 and Volvo EVC-mc - JohnBee - 11-02-16 06:17 AM
Hi!
I have a Volvo Penta D3-160A-A (early 2005) engine with 1st generation EVC-mc instrumentation.
This early version of EVC transfers information between the EVC brain box and the instruments on J1708. But there is a connection between engine ECU and EVC box that runs on J1939.
Is it possible to splice a ECI-100 to this J1939 bus and convert engine data to a seatalk ng backbone?
I attach a wiring schematic of the EVC-mc system.

Welcome to the Raymarine Forum John,
Unfortunately, the ECI-100's support is limited to Volvo EVC-C, EVC-D, EVC-E systems. Should the engine system additionally support J1939 as you have suggested then you may want to look into a J1939 to NMEA 2000 engine gateway (ex. Maretron J2K100, etc.).
