Thanks to the latest LightHouse 4.10 software update, boaters can now call up a wide range of important engine data in real time at the helm - without additional displays. The parameters include speed over ground, engine speed, gear position, oil pressure, trim and tilt position, alternator voltage, fuel tank levels and rudder position. Special Suzuki functions such as troll mode - for precise trolling at a constant low speed - are also supported. In addition, the system provides all relevant warning messages, such as oil pressure, coolant temperature, water in the fuel or system errors.
New app for the plotter
The new Suzuki app on Axiom from Raymarine also offers a trip data page with information on engine hours. As well as distances travelled, fuel consumption, average consumption, remaining range and much more.
"We are very excited to partner with Suzuki Marine," says Michelle Hildyard, Vice President Operations at Raymarine. "With the full integration of Suzuki engine data into our LightHouse operating system, we are enabling boaters to have a smarter, safer and even more comfortable experience on the water."
Morio Omanyuda, Division Manager of the Suzuki Marine Marketing Division, also emphasises the added value: "This collaboration takes our engine technology to a new level - precise, clear and a real benefit for the customer."
Which motors can be used?
The Axiom Suzuki app supports up to four compatible Suzuki engines and is available with the release of the new operating system. The Axiom Suzuki app is compatible with all current Suzuki outboard engines from 40 hp that use the Suzuki NMEA2000 gateway (34923-96L13). It is also possible to connect to other current and older models by using other devices and adapters. Please contact Raymarine support for this. They can provide you with information on models prior to 2016.
