Just purchased a VV Mobil and will install on a 340 Dancer. Anyone done this install? Tips? Can I plug it in under the helm station.

Thanks, I do have SC already on the boatIf you already have SC setup on your boat its just a matter of plugging it into your existing J-box, downloading an App, and pairing with Bluetooth.
If you don't, it is significantly more involved. My boat was "SC Ready" meaning no wiring, no J-box, no terminators, etc. In addition, I had to program my ECU on one engine, so it would identify itself properly as the second engine.
Thanks Todd, I believe it is the junction box at the top part of the photo. Before I started reading I took this pic, not knowing what to look for. It seems I accidently also got a pic of the 6 port jbox.That’s not it, should look like this, might only have 4 connections... One of them might have a dust cover, my 07 320 had a 6 port junction, if I recall..

Ah, I see it now, did not catch it the first time. The panel in the bottom middle-right, I have that as well, still no idea what it is.Thanks Todd, I believe it is the junction box at the top part of the photo.

When I'm at the boat this weekend, I'll try to figure it out and let you know. This is a new boat for me, just had it a couple of weeks. Plan to trick out the helm with a Samsung tablet with navigation, vessel view mobile, bluetooth stereo control, security, and a wifi hotspot on board. Will be able to track weather, etc. while underway.Ah, I see it now, did not catch it the first time. The panel in the bottom middle-right, I have that as well, still no idea what it is.

Thanks AJSB, Ordered the parts you suggested this morning from Ebay, MarineMax didn't have the parts in stock.I’d add a 4-way junction box kit (878492K14), connect it to the 6-way with a female-female connector (84-892453a01) and then connect the VV, speedo & a dust cap. That will leave an open port if you want to add something later and you’re not leaving anything disconnected.
Todd, The six port connector panel in the bottom-right middle is the communications cable block for the switchpads and EIM's. I believe it's call a MUX.Ah, I see it now, did not catch it the first time. The panel in the bottom middle-right, I have that as well, still no idea what it is.
