NOTICE
FAILURE TO FOLLOW THESE INSTALLATION
INSTRUCTIONS COULD RESULT IN FIRE,
ELECTRIC SHOCK, OR OTHER INJURY OR
DAMAGE.
We recommend that the installation of the
WiMEA in your boat is performed by skilled
personnel familiar with electric wiring, or by a
professional mechanic or electrician. This is to
prevent any malfunction of the device related
to installation.
The Boat Unit should be mounted in the helm
or as near as possible to the driver position of
the boat.
You can choose to keep the original kill switch.
If so, connect WiMEA in series if you have Open
to stop principle or parallel to the existing kill
switch if you have a Close to stop principle.
Please note that you always have to use your
existing kill switch when using this setup.
NOTICE
NOTICE
It may be easier to connect the kill switch signal
wires to the Connection Cable before mounting the
Boat Unit completely in your helm, depending on
your helm/boat. Connect the wires as described in
section “Connecting the wires”. Then connect the
Boat Unit Cable and the Connection Cable by
connecting the male and female 5-pin IP67
Connectors before doing final mounting of the Boat
Unit. Connect the Boat Unit Cable to the Connection
Cable between bullet point 3 and 4 on page 19,
“Mounting the Boat Unit”.

NOTICE Do not touch or cut any existing wires or
electrically conducting components before you
make sure the main voltage switch is OFF. Only
set the main voltage switch to ON after you are
finished cutting and connecting wires.
Ensure all wires and conductive
connection points are free from corrosion before
connecting any wires.
Connecting the Wires

22
Connecting the Power
(10 – 32Vdc)
1. Use a test light or a voltmeter to determine
the polarity of the voltage source.
2. Connect the red (+ or positive) wire to the
positive voltage terminal. (If you use the
fuse block on the boat, route the positive
connection through the fuse, as shown on the
diagram.)
3. Connect the black (- or ground) wire to the
negative voltage terminal.
4. Install or check the 1 A - 3 A fuse (in the
in-line fuse holder, or on the fuse block of
the boat.
5. Use wire hoods suitable for the wire
dimension (20AWG, 0.75mm2) or connection
point on the fuse block.
Connect the leads to a stable power source that
is not susceptible to voltage drops.
WARNING

23
Use an AGC / 3AG – 1 Amp - 3 Amp
replacement fuse.
If it is necessary to extend the power and
ground wires, use 20 AWG or thicker wire.
You can wire the Power Wires directly to the
main boat battery, or if your boat has an
electrical system, you might be able to wire the
Power Wires to an unused holder on the fuse
block.
If your boat has an NMEA or NMEA2000 system
installed you can use this system as a power
supply for the WiMEA Boat Unit, if enough
power is available. Please make sure to check
a relevant source for information on power
availability in your NMEA system. NMEA website:
www.nmea.org
NOTICE
The maximum WiMEA Boat Unit input voltage
is 32 Vdc. Do not exceed this voltage because
this can damage the WiMEA Boat Unit and will
void the warranty.
WARNING

24
Connecting the WiMEA Signal wires
Before connecting the Boat Unit Signal wires,
you must test which kill switch principle is used
by your engine manufacturer.
The engine signal wires on WiMEA Boat Unit consists of three
wires. Only two of the three wires are used to connect to the
existing kill switch wires in your boat. Below are instructions on
how to test which of the Boat Unit signal wires to use and how to
connect them to the existing wires in your boat.
Overview of the Boat Unit signal wires (see picture on page 21 for
overview of the signal wires):
1. Common – Grey – Always used when
connecting the WiMEA Boat Unit Signal wires.
2. Open to stop (OS) – Blue – Used when your
existing system is a Open to stop kill switch
system.
3. Close to stop (CS) – Orange – Used when your
existing system is a Close to stop kill switch
system.
NOTICE The engine kill switch system principle varies across
different engine manufacturers, and
different year of model, being Open to stop or
Close to stop principle. Some existing kill switches
has three wires, you still only need to connect
two as described in this manual. The principle in
the existing mechanical kill switch is the same as
the Boat Unit Signal wires, where the three wires
makes the existing kill switch compatible with both
Open to stop and Close to stop kill switch systems.

25
The existing kill switch system in your engine is either:
1. Open to stop (OS) – meaning that the kill switch opens and
disconnects the conductive latch to stop the engine.
2. Close to stop (CS) – meaning that the kill switch closes and
connects the conductive latch to stop the engine.
The existing kill switch system has two wires, which are connected
to the mechanical kill switch (the switch to attach the standard
red cord), mounted in your helm, in the throttle quadrant, on your
engine or other suitable place near the driving position. To connect
the Boat Unit Signal wires you must first cut and strip the existing
kill switch wiring as shown on the picture below:
After stripping the two existing wires, proceed to test the kill switch
principle, as described below.
See page 28, Wiring diagram for overview of the wire connections.
NOTICE
NOTICE
The grey wire on the Connection Cable is the
CMN (common wire) and is used to connect to
one of the existing engine kill switch signal wires,
regardless of the existing kill switch principle.

Testing the kill switch principle
Testing with multimeter
You can test the kill switch principle by connecting a multimeter to
both cables from the existing mechanical kill switch. Make sure the
multimeter is set to measure resistance and that the cord is not
attached to the mechanical kill switch.
Infinite resistance measured:
You have a Open to stop (OS) Kill Switch – Use Blue wire and Grey
wire on the Boat Unit to connect to the two existing kill switch
wires from your engine. See wiring diagram for Open to stop on
page 28.
Close to 0 (zero) resistance:
You have a Close to stop (CS) Kill Switch – Use Orange wire and
Grey wire on the Boat Unit to connect to the two existing kill switch
wires in your boat. See wiring diagram for Close to stop on page
28.
(Open to stop / Close to stop)

27
1. Make sure the existing kill switch wires are not in contact
after you have cut and stripped the two wires.
2. Make sure your throttle or gear handle is in neutral position.
You are going to start the engine to check which principle is
used by your engine manufacturer.
3. Turn the engine ignition switch to ON as you would normally
do when starting the engine.
• If you have a pull cord, be sure to check if you can stop
the engine by pressing a STOP BUTTON on your
engine. If you do not have a STOP BUTTON on your
engine:
• In the event that the engine starts when the
existing kill switch wires are not in conductive
contact, and you have pulled the pull cord to
perform normal engine start, you can stop the
engine by reconnecting the wires. Simply by
leading them together on the stripped end of
both wires, where the cable metal is conductive.
WARNING – PREVENT ELECTRIC SHOCK: Be sure
not to touch the conducting surface on the wires
as these may conduct electricity!
4. Be sure to perform normal starting procedure when testing,
as described above in point 3.
5. Yielded result:
• No engine start: You have a Open to stop (OS) Kill
Switch – Use blue wire and grey wire on the Boat Unit
to connect to the two existing kill switch wires in your
boat. See wiring diagram for Open to stop on page 28.
• Engine start: You have a Close to stop (OS) Kill
Switch – Use orange wire and grey wire on the Boat
Unit Cable to connect to the two existing kill switch
wires in your boat. See wiring diagram for Close to stop
on page 28.

Multiple engine configuration
If you have more than one engine on your boat and your boat is
already fitted with a kill switch you can connect the wires as
described above to the two existing signal wires leading to the
existing mechanical switch in your helm or throttle. You may notice
that the existing wires consists of a splitter component (diode kit)
on the wires. This splitter must not be removed, as this splitter
translates the signal from the single mechanical kill switch into
a kill switch signal for multiple engines. You should connect the
WiMEA Boat Unit wires after this splitter, i.e. on the last two wires
leading into the existing mechanicatl switch installed in your helm.
NOTICE If you have multiple engines and do not have an
existing kill switch, wires and a splitter must be
bought from your engine manufacturer or local
retailer. Please contact your local engine retailer
or manufacturer.
Installing WiMEA in a metal boat
If your helm is made out of conducting materials the wireless
signals from WiMEA may be degraded. The amount of signal
degradation experienced may vary from across boats and must be
tested for each case. Please visit FELL Support at
www.fellmarine.com/support for more information and wire
diagram for your specific engine brand.
