The EXPLORER can be connected to up to two
SmartCraft capable Mercury petrol/gasoline
engines. The EXPLORER can display engine data
and trim and can control troll speed.

engines with a Northstar SmartCraft gateway:
i
For single engine fit a single gateway

SmartCraft engines have fuel flow sensors,
therefore Northstar fuel sensors are not
required as well.

NavBus is Northstar's system for connecting
instruments together to interchange data
and share transducers. When instruments are
connected by NavBus:
If the units, alarms or calibration are changed
in one instrument, then the values will
automatically change in all other instruments
of the same type.

c
Enter smartcraft setup data (see the
SmartCraft Gateways Installation and
Operation Manual)
For information on installing, setting up and
using SmartCraft, see the SmartCraft Gateways
Installation and Operation Manual.
Each instrument can be assigned to a group
of instruments. If the backlight is changed in
an instrument in group 1, 2, 3 or 4 then the
backlight will automatically change in the
other instruments in the same group.
If the backlight is changed in an instrument
in group 0 then no other instruments are
affected.
