Note: Device can be connected to the network backbone directly, without an
NMEA 2000 drop cable.

Introduction
The Outboard Gateway (hereinafter Gateway or Device) is designed for petrol
engines without digital interfaces, and provides NMEA 2000 equipment with engine
revolutions (RPM), alternator voltage (measured at the NMEA 2000 interface) and
engine hours. It can also be programmed to use data from NMEA 2000 temperature
or pressure sensors and send these data as coolant and oil pressure or temperature,
boost or fuel pressure.
To connect the Gateway, you only need to connect it to the NMEA 2000 backbone,
make 3-5 turns of its wire around the spark plug wire, and afx the loops with tape.
In most cases, no additional settings are required, but you might need to set the RPM
divider according to the ignition system and type of your engine.
The Device can be programmed to issue high revolutions, high temperature and low
voltage warnings, and set the state of the charge indicator (displayed on MFD or NMEA
2000 display). If you have a single battery on your boat, the low voltage warning can
prevent the situation where a problem with the alternator or voltage regulator of your
engine is detected when the battery is already nearly dead.
The Gateway is equipped with a hidden button that allows changing the engine number
(0 - 3), RPM divider (from 0.5 to 8) and reseting the Device’s settings. These settings
are enough to install the Device.
To congure other settings, you need a PC gateway (from any manufacturer, including
our USB, Ethernet and Wi-Fi products) and software. The rmware of the Outboard
Gateway can only be updated from free CAN Log Viewer software (works on Microsoft
Windows, Linux and MacOS X) connected to NMEA 2000 with one of our NMEA
2000 gateways.
Thank you for purchasing our product and happy voyages!

II. Device Installation and Connection to NMEA 2000
The Device requires no maintenance. When deciding where to install the Device,
choose a dry mounting location. Do not place the Device where it can be ooded by
water or exposed to rain or water spray. Please note that you may need to observe LED
signals and/or press the Gateway’s hidden button during the conguration procedure.

If your outboard engine is big enough, the Device can be placed inside the engine.
Make sure that it is securely fastened, ventilated, isolated from hot surfaces and
protected from possible water, oil or petrol spray. If you have a problem with routing
the NMEA 2000 cable to the motor, you can place the Outboard Gateway and NMEA
2000 Wi-Fi Gateway YDWG-02 inside the motor, and power them from the ignition.
The data from the Wi-Fi Gateway can be accessed from any web browser or app. Or
you can install the second Wi-Fi Gateway inside your boat and the pair creates a Wi-Fi
bridge to virtually join NMEA 2000 the network inside your boat with the network
inside your engine.
The Device is powered from the NMEA 2000 interface and can be directly connected
to the NMEA 2000 network backbone without a drop cable. To connect the Device
to a Simrad SimNet network (with yellow connectors) you can use an adaptor cable
(SimNet Female — NMEA 2000 Micro Female, Navico part number 24006199).
Before connecting the Device, turn off the bus power supply. Refer to the manufacturer’s
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 connector to secure and waterproof
it. After turning on the NMEA 2000 network power supply, the Device’s LED will start
ashing every 5 seconds, indicating that the Gateway is powered and functioning (see
Section IV for details).
Please note that you can’t directly connect the Device to NMEA 2000 port of your chart
plotter, the NMEA 2000 network requires a dedicated 12V power source.

III. Connection to the Engine and Initial Setup
The Device’s wire works like an antenna catching ignition impulses sent to a spark
plug. Usually you need to wrap the wire 3-5 times around the spark plug wire, and x
the loops with tape (we recommend a tape rated for automotive use). More turns make
the signal stronger, but it makes noise stronger too.
Figure 1. A – signal is good, B – signal is over amplied, C – signal is too weak.
Do not electrically connect Device’s wire.
