Well here it is my friends ...
After lots of enquiries and research, finally we created a harness for the Crusader 8.1 engine data to show up on the Garmin 4000 and 5000 series Chartplotters.
1. The mate to the Crusader 20 pin CANBUS is a Deustch HDP-26-18-20SN on the engine side distributed by Ladd Inc. in the U.S. - approx. cost US$25.
2. The Garmin fitting is a NMEA 2000 Field Compatible Connector, part number from Garmin is 010-1104-00 for male (or 010-11095-00 for female), approx. cost of US$33.
3. On the Crusader side, data is already in NMEA 2000 format:
Pin 16 is for high data
Pin 17 is for low data
Pin 13 is for ground
(according to M. Schneider @ Crusader )
4. On the Garmin side, wiring assignment for the fitting is:
Terminal #3 is black and is for ground
Terminal #4 is white and is for high data
Terminal #5 is blue and is for low data
(according to Garmin Support)
5. Any decent marine grade 3 strand wire for data, estimated length of approx. 15 feet ( depending on application and run to helm)
6. No power run in the harness, only ground and data. Engine ECM has own power, as does Garmin separately.
Thats it ... Plug and Play. Engine data on the Garmin Dashboard screen. Fuel Flow, temps, pressure, voltage, engine hours ... etc. etc. etc.
Best to all
