Raymarine ECI-100 univerzális motor- és vezérlő interfész

The Raymarine ECI-100 (part number E70227) universal engine and control interface is a bridge module designed to integrate propulsion data from your engine into the Raymarine SeaTalkng network. It converts data from NMEA 2000 and J1939 engine buses, enabling display on compatible Raymarine multifunction displays. This centralizes engine data display, whether for single-engine or multi-engine setups.

The ECI-100 interface is compatible with a wide range of engine configurations. It supports the NMEA 2000 and J1939 engine bus protocols. It can be used for single-engine or multi-engine setups (more than two engines), whether the CAN buses are shared or separate.

The ECI-100 interface has compact dimensions, making its discrete integration easier. Its dimensions are:

Length: 109.2 mm Width: 67.5 mm Height: 30.2 mm

For a correct and safe installation of the ECI-100, it is essential to:

Verify that the device is properly connected to ground. Protect the power supply with a fuse of the appropriate rating or an automatic circuit breaker. Never connect this unit to a system with a positive ground. Always disconnect the vessel's power supply before installing or disconnecting the device.

For optimal EMC performance and to minimize interference, it is recommended that the ECI-100 and its cables be:

At least 1 meter (3 feet) away from any device emitting or any cable carrying radiofrequency signals (e.g., VHF transceivers). For Single Sideband (SSB) radios, this distance must be increased to 2 meters (7 feet).
At least 2 meters (7 feet) away from the path of a radar beam.
Powered by a battery different from the one used for engine starting to prevent erratic system behavior.
If non-Raymarine cables are used, it is mandatory to attach a ferrite choke to the cable near the Raymarine device.

For multi-engine systems, a motor identification assistant is available via Raymarine multifunction displays running LightHouse software (version 8 or later). This assistant allows you to configure the order in which engine data is displayed (for example, port, port-center, center, starboard-center, starboard) so that it appears correctly on the engine data pages of your MFD. For single-engine systems, this configuration is not required.

No. Although the ECI-100 interface meets the IPX waterproofing standard, damage caused by exposure to high-pressure cleaners is not covered by the Raymarine warranty. It is recommended to avoid using pressure washers directly on the device.
