Serial cards by mercury

Locate the serial number plate by looking on your motor's transom bracket; the plate will have 'Mercury Marine' written on the top. The serial number is the top number on the plate. The number directly beneath this is the year it was manufactured. If the year is not readable, proceed to Step 3. I emailed mercury for the year of an 50 hp outboard serial number and this is the answer that I got and the email address of the man who answered it.

Its no secret that the most reliable way to ensure getting the correct parts for that Mercury Outboard or Mercruiser Sterndrive Engine is by going directly to the specific Mercruiser Product Diagram associated with your Mercury Marine Serial Number. If you're unsure of where to find your Outboard, Sterndrive or Inboard Engine Serial Number select the following links for more information:.

Finding the model year of your Mercury outboard may be as simple as looking at its title if your state requires your Merc to carry its own, separate title. If not, locate the product identification plate on the engine mounting bracket.

Many newer Mercury outboards have the model year stated prominently on this sticker. If the model year doesn't appear on yours, the serial number, also located on this plate, is the key. If your Mercury outboard is a model, or newer, you can use the online Mercury Parts Catalog to look up the model year. Enter the engine's serial number in the block provided and you get the engine's model year and a comprehensive parts list.

An interactive connection had to be maintained to each switch in order to configure individual user requirements customer datafill , monitor traffic, and collect statistics. Previously, this switch management was performed from 14 regional centers by Mercury support staff. These centers were connected to their switches using a variety of hardware systems: terminal servers, modems, and X.

Each system required its own dedicated server. Mercury was then faced with two serial connectivity problems to overcome: how to connect each system to all 44 switches, and, in the case of CDMS, how to connect the plus people who logged in and used the system. Mercury chose the Perle RIO product to solve both problems. Each switch management system required four serial connections to each of the 44 switches - a total of connections per server - with room for expansion as more switches were added to the system.

Each 8-port RTA connects to two switches, four ports to each. Connection to the switches is via 64K X.

If any link cable fails or is accidentally disconnected, a connection is maintained via one of the standby fault tolerant links. This way no switch can become isolated.
