Note regarding connectivity of “T” Connectors:

• When connecting a “T” connector to a component (for example, i8130 module) always install via the middle
connection (“NODE”).
• When connecting a “T” connector to a CANBus cable (for example, CM10703) to connect components that
are far from each other, always install via the male/female end of the connector (whichever applies).
• Hand-tighten after the connection is made.
• Do not tightly tie down the “T” connectors, as this will create stress and can cause damage.

Installation Overview
This section covers the dual engine, marine gear (inboard) and stern drive installation. Power Wiring and System
Diagrams are shown on pages 10 through 15.
The tasks that must be completed to hook up the BY Unlimited Control Systems are as follows (This section
takes you through each task area).
1. Install the engines.
2. Install battery switches and engine breakers.
3. Route the CE504XX Boat Harness from the engine area to the helm.
4. Install the CE50206 Engine Harness and make the various connections to that harness.
5. Install the Helm Components (mount per templates on pages 27 through 41).
6. Connect the CE50100 Helm Harness.
7. Configure the Engine (if installing Marine Gear, proceed to Step 10).
8. Install the Stern Drive Actuators.
9. Calibrate the Stern Drive Shift Actuators.
10. Check out the Installation.

WARNING
Make all connections in accordance with applicable codes and standards.

STEP 1 - Install the Engines.

Install and align the engines per Yanmar’s Installation Manual, Volume 3 for BY Engines. If this is a Stern Drive
installation, install the Stern Drive first, followed by the engine.

 Installation
STEP 2 - Install Battery Switches and Engine Breakers.
Install the battery switch for each engine. Then, close to the battery switch, install a 50 amp circuit breaker (use
an 80 Amp breaker when glow plugs are specified). The circuit breaker will need to be located so the 2.5 meter
(8 foot) cable supplied on the engine can reach the breaker. Do not extend this cable.
The wire from the battery switch to the circuit breaker should not be longer than one meter (3 feet). The wire
size should be 10mm2 (AWG 6).
The wire size of the main ground cable and the cable to the starter motor should be sized based on their length.
When determining the wire size add the length of the negative cable from the engine block to the battery and the
length of the positive cable from the starter to the battery together.
Distance Wire size
Up to 5 meters (16 feet) 20mm2 AWG 4
Up to 9 meters (30 feet) 40mm2 AWG 1

Breaker Wiring Diagram

Note:
See pages 10 and 11 for the
detailed power wiring diagram.

If using a separate negative distribution bus for each engine, connect them together with 2 wires that are each
the same gauge as the battery cables.

Step 8 - Install the Stern Drive Actuators.
Location
Choose a suitable location for the Shift Actuators, considering the following requirements:
• The actuator is NOT waterproof. Choose a DRY location.
• The actuator needs 12 volt power and connects to the CANBus.
• The cable to the Stern Drive Shift Bracket requires adequate clearance and no sharp bends.
• The actuator should be mounted where it can be accessed for manual operation.

Mounting
There are two ways to mount the actuators and hardware is supplied for both mountings.
1. Three bolts are supplied for rear mount applications (bolt heads behind the mounting panel).
2. Three screws and washers are supplied for front mount applications.

Connections
Connect the 12 volt (3 pin) power connection of the Shift Actuator to the 50 amp Engine Breaker using cable
CE10420, cut to length. This power should be connected so it comes through the Battery Switch and has a
proper fuse. See pages 10 through 15 for details.

Step 10 - Check the Installation.
Connection Checks
1. Ensure all connectors are plugged in and properly seated.
2. Verify that the digital displays and the control heads are connected to the NMEA 2000® network.
3. Make sure the CANBus “T” Connectors are not tied down too tightly, thus causing stress.
4. Check each end of the NMEA 2000® CANBus to ensure that a terminator has been properly installed.
5. Verify that the engine ignition panel is properly connected at the helm station.
6. Check Marine Geasr for correct gear solenoid voltage rating. All BY Unlimited installations require 12 volt
solenoid on the transmission.

12 Volts DC Check
1. Turn the battery switch and the engine breaker on.
2. Test for 12 Volts DC at the starter.

Key Switch Check

1. Turn the key switch to the “on” position, but do not start the engine.
2. The i5601E display comes on.

Module Light/Data Checks

1. The i5601E display now shows data.
2. The Control levers should be in the neutral position; the green SEL light and yellow lights should be on.
Note: The green light will be blinking on a dual station system.

i5601E Display Check

Press the left-most key on the digital displays. The data should be available.

Shift & Throttle Range of Motion

Familiarize yourself with the shift and throttle control and the key switch.

After Checking the Installation - Boat in Operation

After Installation and Check out is complete and with the boat operating in open water:
1. Check Neutral Start Protect to assure that the boat cannot be started in gear.
2. Check that the “Emergency Stop Switch” switch shuts off the engine when the lanyard is removed.
3. With the engine running, go to Appendix C and check the status of the CANBus.
• The CANBus voltage should be higher than 11.5 volts.
• The bus load should be above 0, but below 15%.
• The error frames, per second, should be less than 5, with 0 being typical.

Potentiometer
“Subthrottle”

Redundant (Back-up) Throttle

In the unlikely event that the throttle signal is lost between the helm mounted shift/throttle control head and the
engine, the system is designed to revert to the redundant or subthrottle. First, the engine would reduce RPMs
to idle speed, the digital display would show “Throttle Error,” and a small red indicator light would flash at the
key panel. Directly below the red light is a small potentiometer (small, knurled knob) label “subthrottle.” Turn
the knob all the way to counter-clockwise in order to take control of the throttle. Then turn the knob SLOWLY
to clockwise - the light will glow solid and you will have control of the throttle. When the signal loss problem
has been corrected, you must shut the engine off and restart to return throttle control back to the shift/throttle
control head.

First Time Control Operation
Various features of the electronic control system have been selected and set as part of the installation. They can
be checked in Appendix D. They include:
• Max Throttle Amount in Split Range Throttle (SRT)
• Shift Delays
• Type of Sync (Cruise or Power Train)
• Station Protection
1. Before starting the engines for the first time, take a moment to familiarize yourself with the shift and throttle
controls. With the engines not running, move the control levers over the full range until you are familiar
with the feel. *Note that, on some controls, the detent pressure and drag can be adjusted using the adjusting
screw on the front surface of the control head. The top screw sets the detent pressure; the lower screw sets
the drag.
2. Place the control levers in neutral and turn the ignition switches to the “on” position – but do not start the
engine. The green control head light will illuminate.
3. Check to see if the green light on the control head is solid or flashing. If solid, proceed to the Operations
Section of this book.

Shift & Throttle Control Head Functions

The most common Shift and Throttle Control Head comes with a dual function, single lever control. A single
lever control initiates both shifting and throttle for dual engine.

*Note that the detent pressure and drag can be adjusted using
the adjusting screw on the front surface of the control head.

Provides greater throttle sensitivity: moving an engine’s
control lever to “Full Forward” will only produce the
maximum percentage of WOT (Wide Open Throttle selected
at set-up - typical Throttle Limit is 25%)
TO ENGAGE SRT:
• Move engine lever to Forward Idle position.
• Press N (Neutral) button. (Yellow lamp flashes.)
TO DISENGAGE SRT:
• Move engine lever to Forward Idle or Reverse Idle
• Press N (Neutral) button. The yellow N (Neutral) lamp
will go out - SRT is disengaged.

Shift Disconnect (SD):

Flashing yellow N (Neutral) lamp indicates SD is engaged.
Allows throttle without gear engagement for engine start/
warm-up.
TO ENGAGE SD:
• Move engine lever to the “Neutral” position.
• Press the N (Neutral) button. (Yellow lamp flashes.)
To Disengage SD:
• Return engine’s lever to the “Neutral” position.
• Press N (Neutral) button. The yellow N (Neutral) lamp
will go steady - SD is disengaged and the engine/
transmission will now respond to lever commands.

System Alarms
Critical Alarms
Continuous flashing both lights on either side of the
control indicates a Critical Alarm. System will do a “Safe
Shut Down,” and must be serviced before further use.
When a critical alarm occurs, the system will automatically
go to the selected “Fail Safe Response” mode. The system
MUST be shut down and restarted for most critical alarms.
Some functions may operate for a time after restart. See
display on Control Unit to determine cause of alarm.
If the alarm is caused by the Throttle Actuator hitting
“Stop” - Wide Open Throttle (WOT) - the alarm will go
away when the throttle is pulled back. However, as with
ALL Critical Alarms, the system must be serviced before
further use.

Non-Critical Alarms
Intermittent flashing of both lights on either side the
control (five seconds flash, normal for fifteen seconds, then
repeating), indicates a Non-Critical Alarm. Acknowledge
by a power up cycle. Continue to operate and have the
system checked as soon as possible.

 Operations
Optional Trolling Mode
Note: The Trolling Mode must be calibrated before trolling will operate properly. See Appendix F.
The Trolling mode option allows the boat operator to slow the forward and aft speed of the boat for fishing.
Trolling mode is achieved by the ECU electronically adjusting pressure bypass valves in the gearbox, allowing
the clutches to slip.

When trolling is selected (by pressing the separate trolling switch) and the control lever is moved forward, the
boat will start to move at the slowest speed. As the lever approaches 60% throttle, the boat will be close to its
non-trolling idle speed. Moving the lever further forward will cause the transmission to lock out trolling and
advance the throttle. The factory set defaults will limit throttle to 40%.

The trolling defaults -- as shown in Appendix D -- can be set to a variety of operating modes. Contact your
dealer for details, or see technical manual.

How to Enter Trolling Mode:

1. Move the Control Head lever to the Neutral position.
2. Start the engine if necessary. The system must see RPM in order to permit trolling mode to be entered.
3. Press the separate trolling switch. This places the system in trolling mode.
4. When you move the Control Head lever in either the forward or reverse direction, the engine RPM will
remain steady, but the boat should move in the selected direction.
5. To take the boat out of the trolling mode, return the Control Head lever to the “Neutral” position and press
the Trolling Switch.

Trolling Calibration  
All Trolling systems require set-up prior to initial use.

The transmission MUST be fully warmed up and at normal operating temperature prior to calibration.
Proper set-up calibration can only be achieved when the boat maneuvers
are caused by the action of the propeller.
Setting calibration during windy, strong current or rough water conditions
may not result in the most favorable calibration.
CAUTION: Trolling engagement should be performed only during safe conditions.

Calibrating Trolling
Go to the Digital Display and hold the right most key down until the Main Menu appears (about 5 seconds).
Using the below information navigate the menu down to Trolling Calibration.

Trolling Option
With the engine and transmission fully warmed up and in neutral idle record the LOAD value. This will
typically be a number around 0%. Then put the boat in forward idle and record the LOAD value. A number
between 5% and 15% is typical - however the numbers may vary quite a bit at the lower values. Record the
SOG speed as well. Retain these numbers for later use. Return to neutral.
Note: When making changes to the settings, allow sufficient time for the boat to respond.
1. Enter Troll Mode by placing the control lever at Neutral and pressing the separate trolling switch.

“Down” Arrow moves menu selection down.

“Up” Arrow moves menu selection up.
“Back” to previous menu.
“Right” Arrow acts on current menu item. It will change the 3rd and 4th
buttons to Plus and Minus keys to allow incremental 1% changes to the value.
Caution: The boat will respond immediately as soon as a value is sent to the controller for each
change.
2. Place the control lever in the forward idle position. The transmission will enter forward gear and the boat
will move at “Forward Idle” speed. Select the Min Prop RPM on the digital display and using the “+” and
“-” keys to adjust the value until the boat slows to minimum trolling speed. This resulting Min Prop RPM
number varies by quite a bit so no typical number can be offered. A 30-to-50% number is common on some
transmissions.
3. Select the Max Prop RPM on the digital display and use the “+” and “-” keys to set the value such that the
LOAD reading is about 2% lower than it was in the earlier recorded forward idle position. You want the boat
to move forward just below normal idle speed.

Calibration Notes
If, after using troll, you determine that when you first enter forward idle in the troll mode the shaft is spinning
too fast, you can go into the trolling calibration on the digital display menu and lower the Min Prop RPM value.
If the shaft is spinning too slowly or not at all you can increase the Min Prop RPM value.
If, after using troll, you determine that the maximum trolling speed is too low, you can go into the trolling
calibration on the digital display and raise the Max Prop RPM value. If the trolling max speed is too high,
reduce the value of the Max Prop RPM.
On some occasions the minimum value may be too low for the valve to operate. If lowering the value does not
slow down the prop speed, try increasing the value until the prop responds and then adjust accordingly.
