Description

The Raymarine Evolution EV-DBW Volvo Edition (T70214) packages the drive-by-wire Evolution autopilot with everything needed to connect to a Volvo Penta IPS or Aquamatic propulsion system. The EV-2 Sensor Core speaks directly to the vessel's digital steering over CAN bus, while the included ECI-100 Engine and Control Interface bridges the Raymarine network and the Volvo EVC system, with Volvo-specific cabling supplied in the carton.

The p70Rs rotary control head gives dial-steer command, and the 9-axis EV-2 needs no commissioning calibration. SeaTalkng networking carries engine data from the ECI-100 to compatible Axiom chartplotters, which can also act as pilot controllers. For drive-by-wire vessels outside the Volvo ecosystem, the standard EV-DBW pack is T70164.

Which Evolution pack suits my boat?

Match the pack to your steering system: EV-100 Wheel or Tiller for cockpit-drive sailboats, EV-100, EV-150 or EV-200 Power for hydraulic steering depending on cylinder capacity, EV-200 Sail for below-decks mechanical steering, EV-300 for solenoid-controlled systems, EV-400 for Type 2 and Type 3 drives on larger vessels, and EV-DBW for drive-by-wire steering.

Does an Evolution autopilot need calibration?

No. Set-up is automatic: the rudder gain, rudder damping, counter rudder and compass calibration routines required by earlier autopilots are no longer necessary, and the system keeps refining itself as you use the boat. This is documented in the EV-1 installation instructions (87472).

Do I need a rudder angle reference sensor?

Raymarine highly recommends the rudder angle reference transducer (M81105) on every Evolution system for optimum performance, and it is essential on ACU-300 solenoid installations. The EV-400 Sail and Power packs include a rotary rudder feedback unit, and the ACU-300 ships with one.

How do I check the displacement ratings?

Use the vessel's fully laden displacement, which Raymarine notes is often around 20 percent above the designed displacement, when comparing your boat against a drive or pack rating.

Can I control the autopilot from my chartplotter?

Yes. Compatible controllers include the Axiom, Axiom+, Axiom Pro, Axiom 2 Pro, Axiom XL and Axiom 2 XL chartplotter families as well as the p70s and p70Rs pilot heads. Axiom 2 Pro and Axiom 2 XL need LightHouse 4 v4.4.70 or later; earlier families are supported per the compatibility tables in document 87472.
