Yanmar 4JH80 Engine Data to E-Series Classic MFDs

Welcome to the Raymarine Forum Wil,

Q1. I'm trying to figure out if it is possible to display engine data from a new Yanmar 4JH80 engine on the E80/E120 MFDs. From all the research done here, it appears I need an ECI-100 to connect the engine NEMA 2000 connection to the SeatalkNG bus.
However, when I look at the ECI-100 information online I am not clear if it will be compatible with the E80/E120 software to display the engine data.

A1. An ECI-100 may indeed be used with a C/E-Series Classic MFD or C/E-Series Widescreen MFD. The ECI-100 and MFD would each be interfaced as a spur to a powered and properly terminated SeaTalkng backbone. Please click here to view a FAQ addressing how to construct a simple SeaTalkng/NMEA 2000 backbone. The SeaTalk2/NMEA 2000 port of the Data Master MFD may be connected to the backbone's spur socket by using the A06061 E-Series Classic MFD to SeaTalkng Adaptor Cable.
