1 Pub. 988-0154-641 EP-90R Pressure Electronic Sensor Installation and Configuration Instructions This document shows how to insta ll an EP-90R Pressure sensor and how to connect it to a NMEA 2000 ® network.
2 The EP-90R consists of a red cabl e connector and the EP-90R housing with standard size ho se barb attachment. The EP-90R Water Pressure sensor, like the other L owranceNet Electronic Probe (EP) sensors, is designed for use with a NMEA 2000 DeviceNet Network.
3 For complete instructions on se tting up a new NMEA 2000 network or expanding an existing one, see the other document packed with your EP-90R, " Setup and Installation of NMEA 2000 Networks, General Information " part number 988-0154-173. If that document is not available, it can be downloaded free from the Lowrance web site.
4 3. Slide the pressure hose onto th e EP-90R hose barb attachment. If it does not fit snugly, secure it with a zip tie at the base of the hose barb attachment. 4. Now you are ready to remove the speedometer. Refer to the speedometer’s installation manual for removal instructions.
5 In similar fashion, a NMEA 2000 network allows multiple display units to receive data from a GPS antenna or multiple sonar units to receive messages sent from a temperature sensor.
6 NMEA 2000 network node located at the end of a NMEA 2000 backbone. NOTE: If you have a double T Connector on your network that is not attached to a device, you must cap the unused connector with a NMEA 2000 cap. This will protect the pin connectors from corrosion.
7 In this example, a new device is added to the N ME A 2000 bus by installing a T conn ector between a T connector and a terminator at the end of the backbone (network bus).
