ePropulsion Offers Ultimate MFD Compatibility With New Smart Gateway

ePropulsion, a global leader and market innovator in marine electric propulsion systems and services, announced today the ultimate multifunction display (MFD) compatibility with the new ePropulsion Smart Gateway.

On the heels of its recent move to bring X Series electric outboard and I-Series electric inboard engine data to external MFD without the need for an additional gateway or interface box, the new Smart Gateway allows owners of ePropulsion Spirits, Navy and Pod motors to seamlessly integrate with external MFDs via NMEA 2000. Nextfour Q Experience displays are the first to be integrated with ePropulsion Smart Gateway to have complete compatibility with the full line of ePropulsion motors.

The Smart Gateway is easy to use and install. Measuring 8.8cm by 5cm and weighing only 0.14kg, the compact gateway is connected in between the throttle and motor with an additional port allowing for the connection to the display. After integrating with the Q Experience, information such as battery state of charge (SOC) and engine power of the ePropulsion system are seamlessly displayed, providing users with exceptional situational awareness.

Available in 10 to 24-inch touchscreen sizes, the Q Experience integrates the onboard computer, chart plotter, security and monitoring functions, and entertainment system into one single device. The Q Experience is an intuitive display that also provides weather forecasts, radio functionality, a cellular connection, and a Wi-Fi hotspot connecting the display to other devices.
