Compatible with the latest versions of the VC20 Single or Dual Switch Panel, VC20 Helm ECU, and VC20 Display, the YANMAR E-Key system is versatile enough to accommodate multiple engine and station installations. With the capability to connect up to 10 different tags to each installation, users enjoy unparalleled flexibility tailored to their needs.

The VC20 system was completely developed by YANMAR to meet the company's high standards of quality and dependability. It controls all YANMAR common rail engine and transmission functions and presents engine alarms and diagnostic codes in the display.
