I did sell her before I could get the conversion done. Was hard to pass up a sellers market. I do have all the necessary electronics to get the conversion done. Just need to sell those pieces as the new owner was not interested in tackling the project. apologize, I was never able to...

Good to know. Yeah I was actually looking for the manuals online. I tend to do a lot of my own work, however I am sure I’ll be limited on what I can take on from engine maintenance outside of the fluids change and filters. Removing heat exchangers and turbos not a problem. It’s the...

Thank you so much. That was very helpful. These things make me nervous since I haven’t seen much input on them online or comments. Glad to hear they aren’t as evil as I would have suspected. I’ll keep digging into it. Much appreciated captain. A

Hi guys, I have showered the internet and can’t seem to find much info on the sundancer 60 or 610’s running the MAN V10’s 1100 hp. We have a survey coming up next week and would like to know if anyone has had experience with MAN’s. I work for Caterpillar and love our engines and as well has...

hey I’m selling my 2004 that’s also been heavily updated and fantastic like the OP’s. Let’s connect.

Question for you TTMOTT.... I was thinking about doing this, how come you didn’t bother with a second RIM100, to run the other parameters for alarm? Did you end up not caring about the primary movers? I’m curious instead of having the matron screen, if you can just run qty2 RIM100 modules...

No sir not yet. Just wrapped up screen install and oil changes and filters. I need to install the new radar and then I should be ready for this setup. The plan is to monitor the mechanical gauges as well as the on screen gauges to make sure my programming is correct. I should be able to...

Hey sorry for the late reply. It has been put on the back burner for a few months with holidays and business travel consuming my few weeks back. I will be working on this in the coming weeks and will report back to you and others. Just had a starter go out, so I’ve been consumed with that...

Thank You. After hearing those issues, I’m glad I went this route. I did hear Viking just purchased approximately 400 pieces of various connections and components from Actisense. So it looks promising in a sense...or maybe I am reading into it too much. But either way. Time will tell.

A little update guys, I was at the IWBS in New Orleans and setup a time to visit with Actisense, as their president was visiting the US from the UK. He is going to monitor my upgrade and work together to get this setup and operating correctly. Then if everyone is onboard and others who are...

no sir I don’t. Just the analog gauges. So I’ll be wiring the a rise set from the gauge wiring and taking pictures and reprogramming the unit so it’ll all be displayed on my new screens. It will be a lot of work in progress. But I will make sure to document and take pictures on the journey...

Sure. I’m using the EMU-1, you will require the NGT-1 to program the unit so you have the correct sender information from the engine parameters so it displays properly. Only downside is each EMU-1 allows for 6 gauge connections or 3 if you have starboard and port of the same output....so if you...

Thanks for your insight dtfeld. Funny you say 3126’s. I work for Cat and sell those engines to the Navy for their 11m RIBS. So I can understand that course. While my course is not much different then yours ;) I decided to go with Actisense, they have a pretty nice setup. I am just going to...

So a little more research, I think I may have found the solution. For those experts who may want to chime in. I invite you to let me know your thoughts.... https://www.nolandeng.com/catalog/product_info.php?products_id=38

Safe travels bud. I’m done traveling for a little While. Let’s get together so I can show you her. thanks Superwa, have any pictures or spots I need to look for? I was trying to find what raymarine has that analog to digital converter. But I can’t seem to find one for Garmin....
