3.7 Engine Instrumentation
The helm station is equipped with a set of engine
instruments and/or alarms. These instruments
allow the operator to monitor the operational
condition of the engines. Close observation of
these instruments allows the operator to operate
the engines at the most efcient level and could
save them from serious costly damage. The in-
strumentation is unique to the type of outboard
motors installed on your Everglades.
Most Everglades boats are equipped with Yamaha
engines with Command Link
®
multifunction instru-
ments or the Command Link
®
Plus LCD multifunc-
tion display. Either of these systems can be inte-
grated with optional electronic navigation equip-
ment installed on your boat. A brief description
of the Command link integrated gauges and their
basic functions are listed in this section. Other
functions that are dependent on the electronics
installed on your boat may be available. Please
refer to the Yamaha engine and Command Link
®
owner’s manuals and the manuals for the electron-
ics installed on your boat for detailed information
on the operation of the instruments and additional
functions available.
Some or all of the following gauges may be
present.
Tachometer
The tachometer displays the speed of the engine
in revolutions per minute (RPM). This speed is
not the boat speed or necessarily the speed of
the propeller.
With Command Link instruments the tachometer
also contains the engine trim meter, oil pressure
indicator, water pressure and the overheat warn-
ing indicator.
With Command Link Plus
®
, the tachometer display
also contains the engine trim meters, oil pressure
indicator, water pressure, water temperature, volt
meters and the overheat warning indicator.
