1 Pub. 988-0154-432 EP-60R Fuel Flow Electronic Sensor Installation, Configuration and Calibration Instructions This document shows how to install an EP-60R Fuel Flow sensor and how to connect it to a NMEA 2000 ® network.
2 Some sonar or GPS display units may require a software upgrade to display NMEA 2000 data correctly. For free software upgrades or additional information on the LowranceNet NMEA 2000 ® network system, visit our web si te, www.lowrance.com. The EP-60R consists of a red cabl e connector and the sensor module.
3 LowranceNET Node Kit for a NMEA 2000 network. Includes a 2-foot extension cable, T connector and two 120-ohm terminators. For complete instructions on se tting up a new NMEA 2000 network or expandin.
4 Cut the fuel hose where you intend to install the EP-60R sensor. Slide a clamp over the hose coming from the tank, then push the hose onto the bottom (inlet) hose barb. Seat the hose flush against the sens or housing, then tighten the hose clamp. Attach the hose leading to the engine on the top (outlet) barb in the same way.
5 Connecting to a NMEA 2000 Network A NMEA 2000 network is a communications link between two or more devices that transfer NMEA 2000 in formation. LowranceNET is the NMEA 2000 networking system develo ped by Lowrance Electronics. A NMEA 2000 network functions like the phone wiring in a house.
6 NMEA 2000 network node located at the end of a NMEA 2000 backbone. NOTE: If you have a double T Connector on your network that is not attached to a device, you must cap the unused connector with a NMEA 2000 cap. This will protect the pin connectors from corrosion.
7 In this example, a new device is added to the N ME A 2000 bus by installing a T conn ector between a T connector and a terminator at the end of the backbone (network bus).
