My new boat (2000 310 Sundancer w/twin 7.4) has this System Monitor panel:
Since it's a 3 wire interface, that makes me think that it might be using a standard communication protocol. I was wondering if any of the stock systems are transmitting NMEA, or similar, codes that can be used up by other equipment. My initial impression is that it's unlikely, but I figured I'd ask just in case.
I'm just trying to plot out my electronics upgrades/modifications, and would like to know what is and isn't possible with the stock systems. Thanks!
