The Raymarine ECI-100 is an engine data and Drive-by-Wire autopilot gateway. This universal engine data reading and autopilot control interface is an innovative and affordable solution for connecting engine data and DBW steering systems to Raymarine's autopilot and navigation systems. As a simple isolated CAN bus solution, the ECI-100 offers reliable integration with Raymarine's latest generation of multi-displays. It works with the Raymarine Evolution EV2 autopilot system, which adds autopilot functionality to Drive-by-Wire steering.

Main features

• A simple and unified connection point for engine data. An affordable and easy solution eliminates the need for multiple engine and autopilot gateways.
• View engine data alongside Raymarine radar, sonar and other navigation technologies on a single touch screen display.
• Easy access to customisable screens displaying engine performance data, fuel consumption, alarms, and more.
• View engine information displays on your smartphone or tablet using Raymarine’s mobile apps.
• The easy-to-install ECI-100 makes engine and navigation integration a reality on virtually any size vessel.
• Enjoy autopilot control from any network display. The ECI-100 brings Raymarine's Evolution 9-axis sensor and adaptive autopilot control to your wired propulsion system without the need for a dedicated autopilot gateway.
• Enjoy full autopilot control using a single touchscreen.

NB! For Volvo-Penta, please check before purchase if this product is compatible with your system. You will likely also need EVC Link cable and if there's nowhere to put it, then too Y-Loom cable. NB! From August 2023, after a Volvo-Penta software update, this product may no longer be suitable and it would be advisable to choose Volvo-Penta Easyconnect for engine data and a separate system for the autopilot.

The EV-2 is designed for newer drive-by-wire control systems. The unit has one STNG port that connects directly to the Raymarine SeaTalkng (NMEA2000) network. The EV-2's second dedicated CAN bus port connects to drive-by-wire steering systems – for example, ZF Pod Drives, Yamaha Helm Master, Volvo Penta IPS SeaStar Solutions Optimus systems. With an EV-2 connection, the drive-by-wire CAN bus no longer requires an Autopilot Control Unit (ACU), further simplifying installation. When selecting the location for the EV2, the principle is the same as for the previous fluxgate compass: ensure the sensor is kept away from cables and metal objects.

P70 / P70s Autopilot Control Unit (Sail)

The p70 / p70s autopilot control unit is a keypad-controlled unit specifically designed for sailing boats. The advanced LED backlight provides low power consumption while offering vibrant colour and contrast. Wide horizontal and vertical viewing angles ensure the display can be clearly seen even from acute angles.

The p70 / p70s control unit includes the LightHouse user interface and a setup wizard feature to help you get your autopilot installed quickly and easily.

Upgrade your Evolution autopilot system with a P70 or P70R autopilot control unit. The p70 and p70R control heads offer vibrant colour displays and are equipped with Raymarine's intuitive LightHouse user interface. LightHouse organises all options into simple menu structures, and with the Evolution fast-setup process, your system will be up and running in minutes. The p70 is designed for sailing yachts and offers simple 1° and 10° straight-line increment buttons. The p70R includes a rotary control knob, designed for powerboat use, allowing menu and course changes or manual control directly from the p70R.

Autopilot control from Raymarine MFDs

Use your Raymarine Axiom series or older aSeries, cSeries, eSeries, or gS Series multifunction display to control your Evolution autopilot. Please note that your multifunction display must be running Raymarine LightHouse 4 or 5, and for older chartplotters, LightHouse II software, and some autopilot functions may not be available if your system does not have a dedicated autopilot control unit.

If a situation arises where ECI-100 Link cable If you need to connect, the Volvo Engine EVC Y-Loom cable allows you to create an additional branch to connect the Raymarine ECI-100 interface to the Volvo Penta EVC network. This cable is needed in situations where there is no free connection point available on the existing EVC system HUB. The Y-Loom cable creates this vacant slot while maintaining existing connections and simultaneously enabling the ECI-100 gateway to reliably communicate with Volvo Penta engines and the DBW control system.

Features:

• For use with Volvo Penta EVC systems.

• Allows the ECI-100 device to be added even if there is no free connection point.

• Maintains existing network connections and data communication.

• Durable construction, suitable for marine conditions.

• Quick and easy installation.

Note:
Ensure that the installation is carried out in accordance with Volvo Penta and Raymarine instructions to guarantee correct operation and data transmission.

The Volvo Engine EVC Link cable allows you to connect a Raymarine ECI-100 interface directly to the Volvo Penta EVC engine network. Using this cable, the ECI-100 can transmit engine data to Raymarine devices. An additional STNG spur cable is required for the final connection to the Raymarine SeaTalkNG (STNG) network. If there is no free slot on the EVC network, you will need an additional EVC Y-harness cable.

Features:

• Connects the Raymarine ECI-100 to the Volvo Penta EVC network.

• Installs reliable engine data communications into Raymarine navigation equipment.

• An STNG branch cable is required to connect the ECI-100 to the SeaTalkNG network.

• Quick and easy installation.

• Durable and designed for marine conditions.

Note:
Ensure all connections are correctly installed according to the Raymarine and Volvo Penta installation instructions to guarantee optimal system performance.

This installation kit allows the autopilot steering angle sensor to be connected to Volvo-Penta DPH-A and DPH-B type outdrives. Although the new Raymarine EV1 and EV2 autopilots work without a steering angle sensor, using the sensor further improves the autopilot's accuracy and smoothness. Additionally, the steering position can be viewed on the autopilot control panel, which is a good indication when manoeuvring the boat.
The installation of the kit is technically complex and requires the involvement of a specialist to ensure the correct and reliable operation of the equipment.

Features:

• Compatibility Volvo-Penta D4, D6, DPH-A, DPH-C, DPH-D1, DPH-E, DPI-A, DPR-A, DPR-B, DPR-C, TSK DP-H,
  TSK DP-H/DPR, TSK DPH, TSK DPH- A, TSK DPH-AP, TSK DPH-AS, TSK DPH-B, TSK DPH-BP, TSK DPH-BS,
  TSK DPH-C, TSK DPH-D, TSK DPH-E with foot restraints.

• Enhances autopilot control and smoothness.

• Required component for using the steering angle sensor.

• Professional installation recommended.

Note:
Before installation, we recommend consulting an authorised Volvo-Penta or Raymarine specialist.
