Introduction
The Device is a gateway from Volvo Penta (EVC all versions, MDI, EDC III, EMS2, EDC IV, EFI
with MEFI4B or later, EGC all versions), J1939 and BRP CAN networks (engine networks)
to a NMEA 2000 marine digital network. With it, you can see engine revolutions, temperature,
working hours and other information on the screen of a chart plotter and other display devices
on an NMEA 2000 network.

The Device was initially developed specifically for Volvo Penta engines with an EVC system, but
it can be used with engines of other manufacturers (adaptor cable may be required). The Device is compatible
with J1939 engines and engines that support BRP CAN protocol. BRP is an abbreviation of Bombardier
Recreational Products. BRP CAN protocol is used in a number of popular Rotax engines, for example
in Rotax 1503.

On most vessels, the Device starts working upon installation, with no configuration needed.
But were happy to point out that it has a wealth of diagnostics capabilities and settings. Because
of this, it can often be used on vessels where there are complications with analog equipment from various
manufacturers.

The YDEG-04 is compatible with a wide range of NMEA 2000 devices. Raymarine SeaTalk NG,
Simrad SimNet and Furuno CAN networks are branded versions of NMEA 2000 and differ only
in the type of connectors. In its devices, Garmin uses the NMEA 2000 Micro connector that is
compatible with the DeviceNet Micro connector. Our devices are supplied with different types
of NMEA 2000 connectors, making it possible to connect them to networks of different manufacturers
without any adapters. The Device model is shown on the case.

The model YDEG-04R has a connector similar to Raymarine SeaTalk NG Female. The model YDEG-04N
has a connector similar to NMEA 2000 Micro Male, DeviceNet Micro Male and Garmin NMEA 2000
Male (see Appendix E). To connect to other types of NMEA 2000 networks, a cable adapter is required
(it is not supplied with the Device and must be purchased separately).

The product does not send data to engine networks, and it has a high-voltage galvanic isolation between
the NMEA 2000 and engine network. Installing the Device in accordance with the manual should
not have any effect on the work of the engine network. Power is supplied by the NMEA 2000 network.
4
The connector to the engine network supplies power only for isolated transceiver of the engine network.
The Device is designed to work on 12V or 24V engine networks.

The devices is equipped with a slot for a MicroSD card which can be used to configure its settings (loading
a text file with the settings), updates for the Device firmware. The card can also serve to record the data
from the engine network for configuration and diagnosis of the Device.

We thank you for purchasing our Devices and wish you happy voyages!

II. MicroSD Slot and Cards Compatibility
The Device has a slot for a MicroSD card that allows you to configure the device(see Section V) and update
the firmware (see Section VIII).

Since the MicroSD slot is usually not in use when the Device is working, we recommend sealing it
with the sticker that is included with the Device or with a piece of tape to prevent water from entering
the Device through the slot.

The Device slot has a push-push mechanism that works on a spring and ensures proper card
fixation. Improper loading or unloading (withdrawing your finger to quickly or not waiting
for the click) can result in the card being propelled out of the Device up to 5 meters. To avoid
possible eye injury, loss of or damage to the card, and other hazards, insert and remove the card
with caution.

The Device supports MicroSD memory cards of all sizes and classes. The MicroSD card must be formatted
on a personal computer before use in the Device. The Device supports the following file systems:
FAT (FAT12, FAT16, MS-DOS) and FAT32. It does not support exFAT, NTFS, or any other file systems.

Be careful when inserting the MicroSD card into the Device. The card is inserted with the label side toward
the LED and with the pin side toward the engine cable.

10
III. Installation and Connection to NMEA 2000 Network
The Device requires no maintenance. When deciding where to install the Device, choose a dry mounting
location. Avoid places where the Device can be flooded with water, this can damage it.

The Device is directly connected to the network backbone without a drop cable. Before connecting
the Device, turn off the bus power supply. Refer to the manufacturers documentation if you have
any questions regarding the use of connectors:

SeaTalk NG Reference Manual (81300-1) for Raymarine networks

Technical Reference for Garmin NMEA 2000 Products (190-00891-00) for Garmin networks

After connecting the Device, close the lock on the connection to ensure its water resistance and reliability.

The Device has an LED which flashes red or green. After turning the power in the NMEA 2000 network
on, the Devices LED will give a series of 2 flashes 5 seconds apart. If this does not happen, see Appendix A.

11
IV. Connection to Engine Network

Read and become fully familiar with the contents of this section. Never connect the Device
to the connector that just looks right until you are sure about its wiring. If you have any doubts,
ask a specialist.

Modern engine networks may seem very complicated and may have many similar connectors with
different wiring and different purposes. Some engines, which only differ by one character in the
model name, may have a vastly different electronics and different wiring. Be sure that you are using
the appropriate manual. Usually, a manual lists the colors of wires, and you may check a connector
by the color of the incoming wires.

Never disconnect or connect any connectors when the circuit breaker is ON. The entire installation process
must be performed with no power coming into the engine network and with the engines disconnected
at the circuit breaker.

The Device uses two data lines called CAN HIGH and CAN LOW, and two power supply lines:
VCC (positive) and GND (negative, ground), see Appendix E. We strongly recommend checking
the engine connector wiring in the engines manual, and verifying your engine connector wiring with
a simple multimeter to be sure that you find the right connector:

turn OFF the circuit breaker and check resistance between the CAN HIGH and CAN LOW pins,
it must be 60 120 Ohm;
turn on the circuit breaker (for some models ignition also should be on) and check voltage on the
VCC and GND pins (be careful not to short-circuit anything) of the connector, it must be 12 24 V.

12
IV.1 Connection to a Volvo Penta Engine
The Device is compatible with all versions of Volvo Penta EVC, including the first version EVC-A
(also known as EVC-MC or EVC-EC); engines with MDI (Mechanical Diesel Interface, D1 and D2 series);
with engines equipped with EDC III (EMS2) and EDC IV systems; with gasoline engines equipped with
EFI system (MEFI4B or MEFI5 controllers are supported, with or without EVC system installed); with
gasoline engines equipped with Volvo Penta EGC (with or without EVC system installed).

The Gateway is compatible with most of engines manufactured since 2004 and even with some engines
manufactured before 2000. Most modern engines (manufactured since 2006) are equipped with different
versions of EVC-B, EVC-C, EVC-D, or EVC-E. If any of these versions are fitted on your boat, (regardless
if diesel or gasoline engine) please refer section IV.1.6 for installation details. Please also see IV.1.6 for
engines with MDI (Mechanical Diesel Interface), which are used in the popular D1 and D2 series of engines
(for example, D2-40F).

Do not connect the Device to any connectors labeled Panel, Diagnostics, Datalink, Aux
or Senders. If you have any doubts, ask a specialist.

When connected to both the NMEA 2000 and the engine network, the Device should give a signal indicating
data in the engine network (see Section VII) immediately after the ignition is turned on.

The plug supplied with the Device is not a terminator of a CAN bus. It connects two CAN buses
on the 6-pin connector (see Appendix E).

13
IV.1.1 Connection to EFI Engines (Gasoline, 2004-2005)
Only engines equipped with an MEFI4B controller and later are supported (for example, 8.1 Gi-E,
8.1 OSi-A, 8.1 Gi-EF, 8.1 GXi-D, 8.1 GXi-E and many other). An adaptor cable for the Marine
Data Link Connector is required (available in accessories on the ordering page). The cable has both male
and female connectors (Y-connector), so you can use diagnostics equipment with the Gateway connected.

Figure 1. Marine Data Link Connector (with dust cap removed)

Note that ten wires must be connected to the Marine Data Link Connector from the engine side. Otherwise,
it means that your engine is equipped with an older MEFI version (MEFI3, MEFI4) which is not compatible
with the Device.

Note: you can use the supplied 6-pin plug as a dust cap for the unused Device connector.

14
IV.1.2 Connection to EGC Engines (Gasoline, 2005 and Later)
Note: If an EVC system is fitted, see the EVC section details.

The Device is compatible with all EGC engines (8.1Gi-H, 8.1GXi-G, 8.1OSi-D and many other).

Device is connecting to EVC/Vodia 8-pin Deutsch connector with adaptor cable (see Appendix F, available
in accessories at ordering page). The cable has male and female connectors both (Y-connector), so you
can use diagnostics equipment with Gateway connected.

Note: you can use supplied 6-pin plug as a dust cap for the free Device connector.

IV.1.3 Connection to EDC III (EMS2), EDC IV (Diesel)

Note: If an EVC system is fitted, see the EVC section details.

To connect with EDC III (EMS2) engines, an EVC/Vodia 8-pin adaptor cable (see Appendix F, available
in accessories on the ordering page) is required. The adaptor cable must be connected to the engines
8-pin Deutsch connector, or in line (cable has a built-in Y-connector) between the ECU (Engine Control
Unit) and the CIU (Control Interface Unit).

The Gateway is compatible with EDC IV engines, but the wiring may differ depending
on the instruments installed. A 6-pin Deutsch Vodia connector usually has four wires (power and J1708) only
and cannot be used for a Gateway connection. Please refer your installation diagram and follow
the instructions from section IV.3.

IV.1.4 Connection to EVC-A MC (EVC-MC, EVCmc) Engines (2004-2006,

Diesel and Gasoline)
Unlike other EVC engines, EVC-A MC (used in the D3-160A-A engine and some others engines) use
the Volcano protocol which is physically compatible with the J1939 protocol, but differs at the software
level. Engine revolutions, coolant temperature, boost pressure, battery voltage and engine hours
are supported. The Engine Gateway must be connected in series with the engine
15
and Helm Interface Unit (HIU).

Connections can be made with a EVC-A MC 12-pin C5:ENGINE adaptor cable (available in accessories
on the ordering page). This cable contains a Y-connector, and must be connected between the C5:ENGINE
(grey) connector of HIU (Helm Interface Unit) and the engine cable.

Connection can also be made using an EVC/Vodia 8-pin adaptor cable (see Appendix F, available
in accessories on the ordering page). The Y-connector of this cable must be connected between
the ECU (Engine Control Unit) and the cable to the HIU. Note that this connection point may be located
far from the NMEA 2000 backbone, and an additional NMEA 2000 drop cable may be required.

The multisensor interface is a different CAN network on this ECU, and to get multisensor data
(water temperature, depth and speed), an additional Gateway with an EVC-A Multisensor adaptor
cable (available in accessories on the ordering page) is required. The Y-connector of this adaptor cable
must be connected between the C4:MULTISENSOR (yellow) connector of the HIU and the multisensor
cable.

Note: you can use the supplied 6-pin plug as a dust cap for the unused Device connector.

To activate support of Volcano protocol (required on Gateways connected to both a C5:ENGINE and
a C4:MULTISENSOR), the setting VOLCANO=ON must be set (see V.21).

Water temperature, depth and speed can be calibrated with settings V.22-V.24 .

IV.1.5 Connection to EVC-A EC (EVC-EC, EVCec) Engines (2002-2005)

This type of EVC system used on D4 and D6 engines was manufactured from 2002-2005 (for example,
D4-210A-A). An adaptor cable, EVC-A EC 12-pin X5:MULTILINK is required (available in accessories
on the ordering page). The Y-connector of this cable must be connected between the X5:MULTILINK port
of the HCU (Helm Control Unit) and the sync cable.

One Gateway is enough for a twin-engine installation.

Note: you can use the supplied 6-pin plug as a dust cap for the unused Device connector.
16
IV.1.6 Connection to Other EVC Versions and MDI (Engines from
After 2005, EVC-B and Later)
This connection can be made at the following points (please, read also the details below):

If the system has an EVC tachometer (with a needle gauge and a small LCD display) connected
by a 6-pin Deutsch connector (see Fig. 2 on the next page), the best option is to connect the Gateway
in-line with a tachometer (no extra cables are required, the Gateway is equipped with a 6-pin
Y-connector);
If the system has an HCU (Helm Control Unit) with a 6-pin Multilink connector (usually
the connector and/or the cable label are yellow), the Gateway can be connected to this port (in line
with the existing cable);
If the system has a Multilink Hub (casing usually made completely of yellow plastic,
6-pin connectors), the Gateway can be connected to any port of the hub.

If the engines are connected to a single network (joined with a sync cable), one Device is adequate
for transferring data from all engines to the NMEA 2000 network. The Device supports up to 8 engines
on a network. If the engines are not united on a single network, a separate Device will be needed
for each one.

The basic test is to switch the cables of the EVC tachometers. If the port tachometer shows data of
the starboard engine, it means that you need a dedicated Gateway for each engine (it is less expensive than
installing a sync cable). If the port tachometer still shows port engine data, then one Gateway is enough.

The Device has a built-in Y-connector, and to connect the Device before the EVC tachometer, you only
need to disconnect the tachometer cable, connect it to the Device, and connect the cable from the Device
to the tachometer. If the engines are united on a network and there are multiple tachometers,
you can choose any of them, whichever is most convenient.

Note that if you are installing the Gateway in the place of a broken EVC tachometer, the plug supplied with
the Device must be installed in the unused connector of Device. This plug connects the two CAN interfaces
(CAN1 and CAN2, see Appendix E). The engine controller sends data on the CAN1 interface and monitors
the echo on CAN2. CAN1 and CAN2 are joined in EVC tachometer. If the tachometer is not installed and
the plug is not set, the engine controller will see no echo at CAN2 and will stop data transmission.
17
 Figure 2. Volvo Penta engine with MDI and EVC tachometer

In case of connection to a free Multilink port of the HCU (not in series with any of the existing Multilink
connections), setting of supplied plug is required. In case of connection to the free port of a Multilink
hub, the plug is required only if no other EVC equipment is connected to the hub (if you are unsure,
you can initially connect Device without the plug, and install the plug in case of failure).

Note that the plug (Deutsch connector of female type) cannot be installed if you are connecting the Gateway
to the HCU or a hub without an EVC cable, because the required Device connector (male) will be inserted
in the HCU/hub. In this case you can contact us before ordering, and well supply you with a male type
plug instead of the female type free of charge. You can also join the pins of the female Device connector
yourself (CAN1 HIGH with CAN2 HIGH, CAN1 LOW with CAN2 LOW, see Appendix E). This situation
is very rare in practice.
18
IV.2 Connection to BRP Rotax Engines

BRP CAN protocol differs from J1939 and Volvo Penta EVC protocols and requires configuration
of the Device. BRP CAN diagnostics connector wiring is also differ from the Devices engine
connector wiring; you should change the pins in the connector or use an adaptor cable.

The Device supports up to two BRP engines on a network. The following data are supported:

engine speed;
engine hours;
engine temperature;
boost pressure;
keyswitch battery voltage;
fuel rate;
fuel tank level;
engine warnings (transmitted in J1939 messages with PGN 65226).

To activate BRP CAN protocol support, you should add the following lines to the configuration file
(see V.19 and V.20 for details):

BRP_ROTAX=ON
ENGINE_CAN_SPEED=500

Please note that the Device must be rebooted before the new CAN bus speed comes into effect.

Usually, that is all that you need to do to change in the default settings.

Engines in a BRP CAN network have no J1939 addresses, but addresses are used in the Devices settings
to map engines to NMEA 2000 identifiers. The Device will save port engine data for the engine configured
with J1939 address 0, and starboard engine data to the engine configured with J1939 address 1. If the data
for the port and starboard engines are reversed on the chart plotters screen, you must change the default
settings to:
19
 ENGINE_0=1
ENGINE_1=0

Only one fuel tank is supported for BRP CAN in this version. The vessels fuel tank level is transmitted
to the NMEA 2000 fuel tank with the 0,PORT setting. By default (with the setting FUEL_0=0,PORT),
the vessels fuel tank will be displayed as the first fuel tank on NMEA 2000 gauges.

Note, you may set the fuel type for your tank (see V.5):

FUEL=GASOLINE

But many chart plotters cannot display gasoline tanks, so use DIESEL in case of compatibility issues.

Engine data are available at the diagnostics connector of BRP CAN, it can be located near a fuse box.

The BRP CAN diagnostics connector is the same 6-pin Deutsch connector as used in the Device,
but the wiring is different. To physically connect the Device to the engine network, you should use an adaptor
cable, purchased separately (see Appendix G). Or you can disassemble the Devices connector and change
the pin order.

20
IV.3 Connection to J1939 Engines
The Device works with engines and engine networks using the widespread J1939 standard, which
at the physical level is a CAN bus with 250 kbps speed. J1939 is the standard for automobiles, heavy
equipment, and industrial engines and generators.

The Device does not transfer data to the J1939 network (only from it), so proper installation of the Device
will have no effect on the work of this network.

Connect the contacts (3) CAN1 HIGH and (1) CAN1 LOW from the Device (see Appendix E)
to the CAN HIGH and CAN LOW signals of the J1939 network. The (4) and (6) contacts on the connector
must have power coming in between 12V and 24V. The CAN2 HIGH contact (5) and CAN2 LOW (2) contact
are not connected to the Device.

The connectors used in the Device are Deutsch DT04-6P and DT06-6S (see Appendix E), which can
be obtained in any auto parts store or a specialized internet store, such as Mouser Electronics
(www.mouser.com).

Please check the CAN and power lines as described at beginning of chapter IV.

21
V. Configuring the Device
To configure the Device, a text file with the configuration should be created and named YDEG.CFG
in the root folder of the MicroSD card. A sample of the configuration file is in Appendix D.

The file contents must conform to these rules:

parameters and their values must be entered in UPPER CASE;

each parameter must be on its own line;
commentary lines must start with the # symbol.

Insert the card with a configuration file into the Device and in a few seconds you will see three LED
signals (see Section VII) indicating that the configuration file has been processed. A file YDEGSAVE.CFG
will be created on the memory card with the current configuration of the Device. After the three network
signals, you can remove the card and check the new YDEGSAVE.CFG file to be sure that the configuration
file has been properly interpreted.

You also can load an empty configuration file (zero length) into the Device to get the YDEGSAVE.CFG file
with the full configuration of the Device and then use it as a template to configure the Device.

1. ENGINE_x=y

x identifier of an engine on the NMEA 2000 network [0..7]

y address of the engine on the J1939 network [0..253,OFF]
Factory configuration (from x=0 to 7): 0, 1, OFF, OFF, OFF, OFF, OFF, OFF

Engines on the NMEA 2000 network have identifiers. The port engine (or the only engine on the vessel)
has an identifier of 0; the identifier increase from port to starboard.

The engines on the J1939 network have addresses, with the port engine having the address of 0,
and following engines having the address of 1 and so on. But this rule may not always be kept.

For example, a catamaran has 2 engines not connected by a single network, both engines will have
an address of 0 on their separate J1939 networks. In this case, the following settings should be used:
22
 Device connected Device connected
to the port engine to the starboard engine

ENGINE_0=0 ENGINE_0=OFF
ENGINE_1=OFF ENGINE_1=0

The value OFF is guaranteed to prevent the transfer of data to the NMEA 2000 network for the given
identifier.

Engines in the BRP CAN network have no J1939 addresses, but this setting is used to identify port
and starboard engines. Please see IV.2 for details.

2. NMEA_BATTERY= [KEYSWITCH | CHARGING | POWER_INPUT | OFF]

Factory setting: KEYSWITCH

Equipment in the NMEA 2000 network can display data on the batterys voltage.
In the NMEA 2000 network may already have sensors to detect the battery voltage. In this case,
you can set the value of this parameter to OFF in order to exclude the transfer of information about
the batteries charge.

The engine can provide data about the ignition (keyswitch) battery voltage, voltage in the charging circuit,
and the potential of an additional battery that is connected to the engine. With this option, you can specify
that this data be transferred as information about the battery charge.

What information gets transferred by the engine and what the meaning of the data is depends
on the engines software and settings of the engine network. For example, a Volvo Penta D2-40F transfers
only the ignition (keyswitch) battery information other data is not available.

3. BATTERY_x=y

x identifier of the battery on the NMEA 2000 network [0..7]

y the address of the engine or equipment on the J1939 network that provides the data on the battery
potential [0..253,OFF].
23
Factory settings (from x=0 to 7): OFF, 0, OFF, OFF, OFF, OFF, OFF, OFF

Batteries on the NMEA 2000 network have identifiers analogous to engines. The value, though,
is not related to the location or purpose of the battery.

For example, on a sailing yacht with a single engine, data on the service battery will be transferred
by a special sensor on the NMEA 2000 network. The service battery has an identifier of 0
on the NMEA 2000 network. The engine has an address of 0 on the J1939 network and provides data about
the ignition (keyswitch) battery. Then the correct configuration file would look like this:

ENGINE_0=0
NMEA_BATTERY=KEYSWITCH
BATTERY_0=OFF
BATTERY_1=0

4. NMEA_ALTERNATOR=[KEYSWITCH | CHARGING | POWER_INPUT | OFF]

Factory setting: KEYSWITCH

Along with data about the current parameters of the engines operation, the Device can provide data
about the voltage potential of the alternator of the given engine. The possible values of the parameter
are described in NMEA_BATTERY. The data for the engine will be transferred only if the list
of BATTERY_x parameters contains a battery with the same J1939 address as the engine.

5. FUEL=[DIESEL | GASOLINE | OFF]

Factory setting: DIESEL

The OFF value completely blocks sending of data about the level of fuel in the tanks. The values DIESEL
and GASOLINE are used when sending message about the level of fuel to specify the fuel type.

Note that many chart plotters cannot display gasoline tanks; use DIESEL as the value if there
are compatibility issues.

6. FUEL_x=[y,z|OFF]

24
x identifier of the fuel tank on the NMEA 2000 network [0..9]

y address of the engine (or other equipment) of the J1939 network, providing data on the level of fuel
in the tank [0..254]
z tank [PORT, STARBOARD]
Factory setting (from x=0 to 7): {0,PORT}, {0,STARBOARD}, OFF, OFF, OFF, OFF, OFF, OFF, OFF, OFF

The engine and other equipment on the J1939 network can send information about two fuel tanks which
are nominally counted as the first and second, or left and right, port or starboard (J1939 SPN 96 or SPN 38).

Example of the configuration file:

FUEL=DIESEL
FUEL_0=0,PORT
FUEL_1=0,STARBOARD
FUEL_2=OFF

In the BRP CAN network, only one fuel tank is supported, its data is stored to the fuel tank with the
0,PORT setting, see IV.2 for details.

7. MDI_PROP_MESSAGE=[ON|OFF]

Factory setting: ON

Turns on processing of messages from the Volvo Penta MDI (Mechanical Diesel Interface, installed
on engines D1 and D2) about the engines status and warnings (see VI.1). These messages are proprietary
Volvo Penta extension of J1939 standard.

8. MDI_AUX_MASK=x

x 24-bit mask, hexadecimal number 000000FFFFFF

Factory setting: 000000

This parameter controls mapping of the signal of auxiliary sensor of the Volvo Penta MDI (AUX, see VI.1)
to the engines status in the NMEA 2000 network. For example, if an auxiliary sensor is installed
25
and signals that there is water in the fuel, set the value of the mask in 000100 (hexadecimal number,
bit 9 is set) in accordance with the table in Appendix B. See also MDI_PROP_MESSAGE.

9. MDI_SYS_FAULT_MASK=x

x 24-bit mask, hexadecimal number 000000FFFFFF

Factory setting: 000000

Displays the System fault status of the Volvo Penta MDI block (see VI.1) on the status of the engine
on the NMEA 2000 network. See also the description of MDI_AUX_MASK and MDI_PROP_MESSAGE.

10. ALERT_x=[y,w,z|OFF]

x digit from 0 to 9, internal index of the Device

y 24-bit mask, hexadecimal number 000000FFFFFF
w decimal number of SPN, see the manual of your specific engine
z decimal number FMI, from 0 to 31, see the manual of your engine

When a diagnostic message (PGN 65226) with specified SPN and FMI codes is received from the engine,
set the bits of the engine status in NMEA 2000 to according to the mask. For example:

ALERT_0=000020,158,1

Set the sixth bit (hexadecimal 000020) in the engine status (see Appendix B), indicating Low System
Voltage, when a diagnostic message received with the SPN and FMI equal to 158 and 1, respectively.

11. ALERT_WARN1_MASK=x

x 24-bit mask, hexadecimal mask, hexadecimal number 000000FFFFFF

Factory setting: 000000

Set bit 17 of the engine status (Warning Level 1) if at least one bit of the current engine status matches
the specified mask. Use of this setting is described in VI.4.

26
 12. ALERT_WARN2_MASK=x

x 24-bit mask, hexadecimal number 000000FFFFFF

Factory setting: 000000

Set bit 18 of the engine status (Warning Level 2) if at least one bit of the current engine status matches
the specified mask. Use of this setting is described in VI.4.

13. ALERT_POWER_REDUCTION_MASK=x

x 24-bit mask, hexadecimal number 000000FFFFFF

Factory setting: 000000

Set bit 19 of the engine status (Power Reduction) if at least one bit of the current engine status matches
the specified mask. Use of this setting is described in VI.4.

14. NMEA_ALERT_MASK=x

x 24-bit mask, hexadecimal number 000000FFFFFF

Factory setting: FFFFFF

Only bits set in this mask can be set by the Device in the engine status in NMEA 2000. Use of this parameter
is described in Section VI.5.

15. TRANSMISSION_x=y

x identifier of a transmission on the NMEA 2000 network [0..7]

y address of the transmission on the J1939 network [0..253, OFF]
Factory configuration (from x= 0 to 7): 3,4,OFF,OFF,OFF,OFF,OFF,OFF

Like a port engine (see V.1), port transmission has an identifier 0 in NMEA 2000; the identifier increase
from port to starboard. The value OFF is guaranteed to prevent the transfer of data (current gear,
oil temperature and pressure) to the NMEA 2000 for the given identifier.

27
 16. TANK_CAPACITY_x=y|DEFAULT

x fuel tank number

y volume in liters

Fuel level data are transmitted in the engine network as a percentage. Use this setting to specify
the volume of fuel tank. If this value is set, volume will be transmitted together with the fuel level in percent
to the NMEA 2000 network. The DEFAULT value prohibits transmission of the tank volume.

17. TANK_CALIBRATION_x=p4,p8,...,p95|OFF

x fuel tank number

p4,p8,,p95 12 calibration points (decimal values, 0..100)
Factory setting: OFF for all tanks

Resistive fuel level sensors cannot take into account the shape of the fuel tank, and the readings usually
have substantial error. This setting defines 12 calibration points for 4, 8, 12, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80,
90 and 95% readings (assuming that 0% and 100% readings do not require calibration). For each point,
you should specify the correct reading value. For example, if your fuel gauge shows 50% when the tank
actually is only 19% full, then you should set 19 as the value for the 50% calibration point (7th value
in the calibration string).

To simplify obtaining the calibration string, we prepared an Excel file available on our web site.
You only need to specify your gauge's readings and the measured remaining fuel volume to get
the calculated calibration string.

18. EXHAUST_TEMP=ON|OFF

Factory setting: ON

Allows or denies transmission of exhaust gas temperature. Legacy chart plotters may not show this data.

19. BRP_ROTAX=ON|OFF

Factory setting: OFF

28
Turn on/off the support of BRP CAN protocol, used in Bombardier Recreational Products engines,
e.g. Rotax 1503. Note that this protocol uses a different CAN speed (see the next setting).

20. ENGINE_CAN_SPEED=250|500

Factory setting: 250

Switch the speed of engine network interface between 250 kbps (default setting, used in Volvo Penta EVC
and J1939 engines) and 500 kbps (used in BRP CAN). Note that device must be rebooted to take effect.

21. VOLCANO=ON|OFF

Factory setting: OFF

This setting is required on Gateways connected to the C4:MULTISENSOR (yellow) or C5:ENGINE (grey)
ports of an EVC-A MC (EVCmc) system only. Please see IV.1.4 for details.

22. WATER_DEPTH_OFFSET=x

x OFF (default value) or a number from -1000 to 1000

Positive numbers (in centimeters) represent the distance from the transducer to the water line and negative
values represent the distance from the transducer to the keel. This value is sent as the transducer offset
(in separate data field) of the Water Depth message in NMEA 2000.

The OFF value turns off sending of the Water Depth message. This setting is used on Devices connected
to the C4:MULTISENSOR port of an EVC-A MC (EVCmc) system only (see IV.1.4), setting V.21 must
be set to ON.

23. WATER_SPEED_CORRECTION=x

x OFF (default value) or a number from -1000 to 1000

Numbers indicate speed correction factor in percent (10 is +10%). Speed is sent in the Speed, Water
Referenced message of NMEA 2000.

29
The OFF value turns off sending of the Speed, Water Referenced message. This setting is used on Devices
connected to the C4:MULTISENSOR port of an EVC-A MC (EVCmc) system only (see IV.1.4), setting V.21
must be set to ON.

24. WATER_TEMP_OFFSET=x

x OFF (default value) or a number from -1000 to 1000

Numbers are in 0.1 Celsius, -10 means that readings will be decreased by 1 degree Celsius. Temperature
is sent as sea temperature in the Temperature, Extended Range message of NMEA 2000.

The OFF value turns off the sending of Temperature, Extended Range messages. This setting is used
on Devices connected to the C4:MULTISENSOR port of an EVC-A MC (EVCmc) system only (see IV.1.4),
setting V.21 must be set to ON.

25. INTAKE_MANIFOLD_TEMP=x

x OFF (default value) or a number from 1 to 252

NMEA 2000 has no data type for transmitting intake manifold temperature (supported in Volvo Penta,
J1939 and BRP Rotax engines). Moreover, many chart plotters have gauges for a limited set of data types.

This setting is added to work around these limitations. OFF blocks the sending of temperature messages,
and values 1 to 252 cause sending of Temperature, Extended Range NMEA 2000 messages with
the temperature of following data type:

01 = Outside Temperature
02 = Inside Temperature
03 = Engine Room Temperature
04 = Main Cabin Temperature
05 = Live Well Temperature
06 = Bait Well Temperature
07 = Refrigeration Temperature
08 = Heating System Temperature
09 = Dew Point Temperature
30
 10 = Wind Chill Temperature, Apparent
11 = Wind Chill Temperature, Theoretical
12 = Heat Index Temperature
13 = Freezer Temperature
14 = Exhaust Gas Temperature
15 through 128 Reserved
129 through 252 Generic Temperature Sources other than those defined

Therefore, you can map intake manifold temperature to one of the temperature gauges supported by your
NMEA 2000 displays.

31
VI. Display Engine Status (Warnings)
The standard NMEA 2000 defines 24 warnings for engine status that are listed in Appendix B.
The NMEA 2000 displays and chart plotters can support display of the engine status in different varying
degrees.

1. Volvo Penta D1 and D2 engines

The low-power engines for sailing yachts, Volvo Penta series D1 and D2, are equipped with electronic
control block MDI (Mechanical Diesel Interface) and have a few sensors connected to the MDI which report
on a small number of problems: engine overheating, low oil pressure, and low ignition battery voltage.

The MDI block, unlike electronic blocks of other engines, provides data about the condition
with a proprietary message. To process these messages, the parameter MDI_PROP_MESSAGE
must be set to ON (see V.7).

Table 1. Display of engine status for D1 and D2 engines in NMEA 2000

* The conditions System fault and Auxiliary alarm can be mapped by the user to bits of engine
status in NMEA 2000 using the settings:MDI_AUX_MASK and MDI_SYS_FAULT_MASK
(see V.8 and V.9)
2. Other Volvo Penta and J1939 engines

Modern engines can have more than 10 different sensors and provide hundreds of diagnostic codes
(in J1939 messages with PGN 65226). Generally used diagnostic codes are described in the J1939 standards.

33
 Table 2. Display of J1939 engine status

Engine status display

Description SPN FMI in NMEA 2000 [bit]
Low fuel pressure 94 1, 18 Low Fuel Pressure [5]
Water in fuel 97 0 Water in Fuel [9]
Low engine oil level 98 1 Low Oil Level [4]
Low engine oil pressure 100 1, 18 Low Oil Pressure [3]
High boost pressure 102, 106 1, 16 High Boost Pressure [12]

Low coolant level 111 1 Low Coolant Level [7]
Low battery voltage 158 1 Low System Voltage [6]
Engine over speed 190 0, 16 Rev Limit Exceeded [13]

With the ALERT_x parameters, you can independently display up to 10 diagnostic codes on engine status
bits in NMEA 2000 (see V.10).

3. Bombardier BRP Engines

The Engine Gateway supports native fault codes of BRP engines in addition to fault and diagnostics codes
transmitted with J1939 DM1 messages (see Table 2 above).

34
 Table 3. Supported BRP CAN fault codes

Fault Fault Description NMEA 2000 Status

Code
P0217 High engine coolant temperature Over Temperature [2]
P0524 Low oil pressure condition Low Oil Pressure [3]
P1520 Low oil level Low Oil Level [4]
P0562 Battery voltage too low Low System Voltage [6]

P0122 TAS (Throttle Accelerator Sensor) 1 fault (short circuit to GND) Throttle Position Sensor [15]
P0123 TAS (Throttle Accelerator Sensor) 1 fault (short circuit to battery) Throttle Position Sensor [15]
P1102 TPS adaption failure Throttle Position Sensor [15]
P1104 TPS adaption cancelled Throttle Position Sensor [15]
P0600 CAN communication problem Engine Comm Error [21]
P1680 Communication problem detected by MPEM Engine Comm Error [21]
P1681 Communication problem instrument cluster message missing Engine Comm Error [21]
P1682 Communication problem EMS message missing Engine Comm Error [21]

Not all BRP CAN fault codes can be mapped to a NMEA 2000 engine status, because NMEA has only
24 engine status flags (see Appendix B). But you can define mapping of additional fault codes with
the ALERT_x setting (see V.10).
35
For example, to map P1030 to "Maintenance Needed", you should place the following line
in the configuration file:

ALERT_0=080000,4144,0

Where 080000 is the hex mask of "Maintenance Needed" (see Appendix B), 4144 is a decimal equivalent
of hexadecimal 1030 (BRP fault codes are hexadecimals), the last number 0 can be any value from 0
to 31 (not used).

4. Combination warnings

Engine status bits in NMEA 2000 like Warning Level 1, Warning Level 2, and Power Reduction
are combination warnings. Non-critical issues like low battery voltage or water in the fuel filter can initiate
second-level general warnings, and engine over-heating or low oil pressure are first-level warnings. Display
or indicating devices can display these statuses with yellow or red lights, respectively.

Using the ALERT_WARN1_MASK, ALERT_WARN2_MASK and ALERT_POWER_REDUCTION_MASK

(see V.11-V.13), you can configure how these statuses are turned on.

For example, to have the Warning Level 2 status turn on when water is in the fuel filter (bit 9) or when
there is low system voltage (bit 6), you should assign the following mask (assigned in hexadecimal values):
ALERT_WARN2_MASK=000120

5. Global blocking of warnings

The NMEA_ALERT_MASK (see V.14) parameter is assigns the mask for status bits applied before sending
the message. Accordingly, to allow all warnings, set its value to FFFFFF (assigned as a hexadecimal
number), to prevent all warnings from coming through, set it to 000000.

36
VII. LED Signals
1. Signal with period of 5 seconds, two flashes of the LED.

The first flash indicates the condition of the engine network. Green if within the last period (5 seconds) data
has been accepted from the engine network, red if not.

The second flash indicates the condition of the NMEA 2000 network. Green if in the last period there
has been data received or successfully sent (confirmation of data reception from other devices), red if not.

The Device accepts a limited set of NMEA 2000 messages (see Table 2, Appendix C), the remaining messages
are filtered at the hardware level. In this regard, some NMEA 2000 networks can indicate a red light much
of the time, when the engine network is turned off (ignition off) and the NMEA 2000 is functioning normally.
In this case, to check the connection to the NMEA 2000 network turn one device that is on the network
(e.g. the chart plotter) off and on again. The status of the NMEA 2000 for some time will be displayed
with green flashes.

2. Three flashes, one time after inserting the MicroSD card into the Device

Three green flashes: the YDEG.CFG file has been read and changes have been made to the current Device
settings. The YDEGSAVE.CFG file on the card has been saved with the updated configuration.

Green, red, red: the YDEG.CFG file has been read from the card, but the current configuration
of the Device has not been changed (either the configuration file does not differ from the current settings
or there are no settings in the file). The YDEGSAVE.CFG file on the card has been saved with the current
configuration.

Three red flashes: the YDEG.CFG was not found on the MicroSD card or the file system is not supported.

3. Five green flashes when NMEA 2000 network is turned on

The Device has the MicroSD inserted with a firmware update, the firmware is updated (see Section VIII).

37
VIII. Firmware Updates
In the root folder of the MicroSD card with FAT or FAT32 file system, copy GUPDATE.BIN, which
contains the firmware update of the Device. Insert the card into the Device and turn on the power
in the NMEA 2000 network.

From 5-15 seconds after powering on, the LED will flash 5 times with green light. This indicates that
the firmware update is successfully completed.

If the Device already is using the given version of the firmware, or if the Device cannot open the file
or the file is corrupted, the boot loader immediately transfers control to the main program. This is done
without visual cues.

The Device information including the firmware version is displayed in the list of NMEA 2000 devices
(SeaTalk NG, SimNet, Furuno CAN) or in the common list of external devices on the chart plotter
(see third line at Figure 1 on the next page). Usually, access to this list is in the Diagnostics, External
Interfaces or External devices menu of the chart plotter.

38
Figure 1. Raymarine c125 MFD devices list with Gateway (YDEG-04)

39
IX. Recording Data and Diagnostics of the Engine Interface
The Device allows data to be recorded form the engine network to the MicroSD card for the purpose
of diagnostics and configuration.

Turn the engine ignition off. Create a file called YDEG.CFG with the following line included:

ENGINE_LOG=ON

Note that the given configuration is not saved in the non-volatile memory and will stop its action after
the card is removed or when the NMEA 2000 network is powered off.

Insert the MicroSD card into the Device and turn on the engine ignition. The Device will start recording
data to the MicroSD card and create a file in the root folder with the name YDEGxxx.CAN, where
xxx is a file number. The Device starts recording to a new file each time the power to the engine network
is turned on.

When the ignition is turned off (power in the engine network), the Device closes
the file. Turn off the ignition and wait for the status of the engine network to change to be displayed
by a red signal by the LED (see VII.1). After this, the memory card can be safely removed from the Device.

To view, convert or export .CAN files, you may use the free CAN Log Viewer program, which works
on Microsoft Windows, Mac OS X and Linux: http://www.yachtd.com/products/can_view.html

The file format is open and described in the CAN Log Viewer documentation. To analyze data,
protocol knowledge is required. BRP CAN is a proprietary protocol, Volvo Penta EVC protocol
is a proprietary extension of J1939 protocol. J1939 protocol documentation can be obtained
from SAE (http://www.sae.org).
