2 Ordering Information
The Marine Pro covers a wide range of compatible products within both the 200- and 400
Series. Please visit our website for more information.
3 Overview of the 200 series
The drawing below shows a typical layout.
All products with a touch screen shall be operated with care. Do not use sharp or
hard objects.
3.1 DCU 210E Engine Controller
The DCU 210E Engine Controller is the main building block in the 200 Series.
Engine sensor values are displayed on the color touch screen, and commands and other
user interaction is also here.
3.2 DCU 208E Engine Controller
The DCU 208E is basically the same as the DCU 210E, but without the color touch screen.
It saves cost being used in smaller engine rooms, where a remote panel is all that is needed.
Page 4 (20)

3.3 RP 210E/220E Remote Panel
The optional RP Remote Panels brings everything on the DCU to a remote location, with the
exact same user interface. It does not need any configuration, as it is reading the
configuration from the DCU.
As such, the RP can easily be retrofitted.
The RP also supports one IP-camera to be installed on the network.
3.4 Ethernet Switch
The Ethernet switch is not necessary if only one DCU 210E and one RP 210E is in use.
These can then be wired with an Ethernet cable directly.
It is recommended to make use of an Ethernet switch though, as it simplifies PC
configuration connection and future expansion to remote panels and/or camera interface.
3.5 Expansion
The basic system can be expanded with more input and output channels using the versatile
RIO units (Remote I/O).
Currently, there are RIO units for
● General I/O expansion, RIO 410 and RIO 210.
● Exhaust temperature monitoring, RIO 412
● Generator monitoring, RIO 425
● Load sharing, LSU 408
4 DCU 210E Engine Controller
4.1 First Power On
Use a Web-browser to set up and configure the DCU.
PC Connection/Setup:
● Connect via Ethernet using a net browser
● From the Address Field in the Browser, type the IP-Address. Factory Default is
192.168.0.101.
● Then log in to the unit. Factory Default Username is ‘DCU’ and Factory Default
password is ‘1234’.
For further details and information, please see the Configuration Manual.
At the first Power-Up the user will be guided through a Setup Wizard
1. Language selection and your choice is valid through the rest of the
procedure.
Page 5 (20)

2. Network settings. Make sure to follow common network configuration
practice and take care when several units need to operate within the same
network.
4.2 Configuration Dependency
The behavior of the panel depends somewhat on its configuration.
For instance, the start/stop buttons can be configured either as latched, meaning the DCU
completes the start/stop cycle once the button is pressed, or hold-to, meaning the operator
must keep the button pressed until the engine has started or stopped.
The configuration of the DCU is not part of this document.
4.3 Main Elements of the Touch Screen
The DCU 210E (not the DCU 208E) uses a touch screen for all user interaction.
The DCU 208E does not have a user interface; please see the RP 210E Remote Panel
section.
4.3.1 Screen Navigation and Hot-spots

5 RP 210E/220E/206E Remote Panel
5.1 Introduction
The RP 210E, RP 220E and RP 206E are remote panels for DCUs in the Marine Pro 200
and 400 series.
It reads the configuration from the DCU Engine Controller it is connected to. If the DCU has
a configuration change, then the RP Remote Panel will automatically adapt.
The RP 210E can monitor and control one DCU engine panel only.
The RP 220E can monitor and control two DCU engine panels.
The RP 206E can monitor two DCU engine panels. It can not control start/stop.
Page 16 (20)

5.1.1 Similarities with the DCU 210E
The use of the RP 210E/220E/206E remote panel is very similar to the use of the DCU 210E
panel, so this chapter will only describe the menu sections on the RP 210E/220E/206E that
are not available on the DCU 210E.
5.2 Status Bar Symbols
In addition to the symbols already mentioned for the DCU the RP has one additional symbol
to indicate active station.
This RP is the active station for the connected DCU.
5.3 Other Symbols
The RP supports a function called “Operator Locked”. When operator lock is active, (no user
input accepted from either touch screen or buttons) this symbol is displayed on the bottom
right of the screen.
Operator Lock is active.
5.4 Menu
The menu is accessed in the same manner as for the DCU 210E.
Upon entering the menu, the previously used menu item is pre-selected.
Page 17 (20)

5.4.1 Active Station
There may be several RP panels in the network, all controlling the same engine.
Only one remote panel can be in control of the engine at any given time.
The Active Station dialog displays the connected engine this RP.
If there is a yellow star in the top-right position of the icon, as in the picture above, then this
RP is currently in control of that engine.
Request the Active Station status
If the RP is not the active station for the engine, send a request to the RP with the current
active station status.
Select the engine and then select Request.
If there is only one RP in the network, it may initially not be the active station.
Select it once to store current selection (this will be valid also after reboot).
Release the Active Station status
The RP can release its Active Station status and make the engine “free” or available on the
network.
Other RP panels with lower priority settings than this RP can now become the active station
for that engine.
Select the engine, and then press the Release button.
5.4.2 Settings
This chapter describes the menu icons that are not found on the DCU 210E only.
Page 18 (20)

5.4.3 Camera
The RP panel can display images from a connected IP-camera.
6 The Alarm List
The following is valid for the alarm list in the DCU and RP panels.
Bold text
● An unacknowledged event is in bold text.
● An acknowledged event is in normal text.
Background colors
● A diagnostic message is displayed on a white background.
● A warning is displayed on a yellow background.
● An alarm and an engine shutdown are displayed on a red background. In addition, an
engine shutdown is indicated with a STOP sign.
● An unacknowledged event that turned inactive before acknowledge, is displayed on a
grey background. For instance, the coolant temperature may have been above the
setpoint, and then dropped below the setpoint again before the operator
acknowledged it.
Page 19 (20)

Active Alarms will stay displayed until they go inactive.
6.1 Filter Alarms
