EP-70R Speed
Electronic Speed Sensor
Installation Instructions
This document shows how to install an EP-70R speed sensor and how
to connect it to a NMEA 2000
®
network.
NMEA 2000 is the communication bus standard developed by the
National Marine Electronics Association (NMEA) for use in boats.
Lowrance has introduced a line of products that can communicate over
a NMEA 2000 network (LowranceNet).
All Lowrance NMEA 2000 capable devices are either NMEA 2000
certified or certification is pending.
CAUTION:
Installing LowranceNET NMEA 2000 devices is
significantly
different
from installing earlier Lowrance components without
NMEA 2000 features. You should read all of the installation
instructions before proceeding. Decide where you want to install
all components before drilling any holes in your vessel.
Some sonar or GPS display units may require a software upgrade to
display NMEA 2000 data correctly. For free software upgrades or
additional information on the LowranceNet NMEA 2000
®
network
system, visit our web site, www.lowrance.com.

Summary
2 The EP-70R consists of the paddle wheel sensor module, a red cable connector and the smart module, which converts analog speed data to the NMEA 2000 data format. The cable length from the connector to the smart module is 16 1/2 inches (42 cm) and from the smart module to the speed module is 10 fee...
3 For complete instructions on setting up a new NMEA 2000 network or expanding an existing one, see the NMEA 2000 document packed with your EP-70R, " Setup and Installation of NMEA 2000 Networks, General Information ," part number 988-0154-173. If that document is missing, it can be download...
4 Speed sensor rear view. Speed sensor side view. If the base of the transom has a radius, fill the gap between the transom and the sensor with sealant. This will help ensure a smooth water flow. Route the sensor's cable through or over the transom to the LowranceNET. If you need to drill a hole in ...
