Features and Controls
Audio Warning System
Your Cummins MerCruiser Diesel power package may be equipped with an audio warning system. The audio warning system is
designed to warn the operator that a malfunction has occurred and will not protect the engine from damage.
IMPORTANT: If the audio warning sounds, stop the engine immediately if you are not in a hazardous situation. Investigate the
cause and correct it, if possible. If you cannot determine the cause, consult your Cummins MerCruiser Diesel Authorized Repair
Facility. Operating the vessel with a critical fault malfunction may cause engine, drive, and control system damage.
The audio warning will sound if the engine control module (ECM) detects a malfunction. Malfunction fault code information can
be displayed on the following SmartCraft instruments:
• VesselView
• System tachometer or speedometer
Audio Warning Tones
Critical Faults
• Six long (1.5 second) beeps at 1/2 second intervals
• 2 minute pause followed by
• One long (1.5 second) beep every two minutes until the fault is corrected
Non‑critical fault
• Six short (0.5 second) beeps at 1/2 second intervals
• There will be no additional warning tones
IMPORTANT: Fault codes generated by a malfunction will remain in the system until corrected and cleared.
VesselView
Refer to your VesselView operations manual for detailed engine monitoring information.
Instrumentation
Propulsion Personality
The propulsion personality was developed by Cummins MerCruiser Diesel (CMD) and your boat builder to ensure that vessel
performance regarding joystick, steering, and autopilot work optimally for your vessel in ideal conditions. As conditions vary, such
as wind and current, additional user input may be required to compensate.
Changing engine performance, gear ratios, or propeller may affect the performance of the joystick as well as the top speed of the
vessel. Changing any parameter from the original factory equipment and settings can have a negative affect on performance, and
changes should not be made without consulting the OEM (boat manufacturer) and a CMD Application Engineer first.
The vessel personality is the property of the OEM, and any changes or upgrades to the personality must be approved and
distributed by the OEM. CMD will assist with software personality changes only at the request of the OEM.
