1.1  Introduction 
Congratulations on your purchase of the Maretron EMS100 Engine Monitoring System. 
Maretron has designed and built your engine monitoring system to the highest standards for 
years of reliable, dependable, and accurate service. 
 
The EMS100 plugs directly into engine wiring harnesses (through the use of a Maretron wiring 
harness, purchased separately) and converts analog signals such as water temperature and 
oil pressure to the NMEA 2000
®
 digital interface.  Critical engine data is then distributed 
throughout the vessel over a single cable where it can be monitored by any NMEA 2000
®
 
compatible display.  The EMS100 is compatible with existing instrument panels and key 
switches so you don’t need to remove them while upgrading to newer digital technology.  For 
new installations, the EMS100 and a compatible NMEA 2000
®
 display can replace the 
traditional analog instrument panel. 
 
The Maretron EMS100 is designed to operate within the harsh demands of the marine 
environment.  However, no piece of marine electronic equipment can function properly unless 
installed, configured, and maintained in the correct manner.  Please read carefully and follow 
these instructions for installation, configuration, and usage of the Maretron EMS100 in order to 
ensure optimal performance.
