Abstract: A system includes a data communication module, a position sensor, and a controller. The position sensor is operable to detect a position of a watercraft. The controller is configured or programmed to send at least one of functional information, trouble information, or operational information to an external computer through a data communication module. In the functional information, an automatic control function of a marine propulsion device and the position of the watercraft when the automatic control function is used are associated with each other. In the trouble information, a trouble in the marine propulsion device and the position of the watercraft when the trouble occurred are associated with each other. In the operational information, an operational pattern performed by a user for the marine propulsion device and the position of the watercraft when the operational pattern is performed are associated with each other.

Abstract: A system for controlling a watercraft includes a data communication module, a device system, an electric power supply, and a controller. The data communication module is operable to perform wireless communication with an external computer. The device system includes at least one electric device. The electric power supply provides electric power to the data communication module and the device system. The controller is configured or programmed to switch between a first mode and a second mode. In the first mode, the controller provides electric power to the data communication module by the electric power supply during both activation and deactivation of the device system. In the second mode, the controller provides electric power to the data communication module by the electric power supply during the activation of the device system, but stops providing electric power to the data communication module by the electric power supply during the deactivation of the device system.

Abstract: A control system for a watercraft includes a device system, a communication device, a controller, a first battery, and an electric power receiver. The communication device performs wireless communication with a server. The first battery provides electric power to the communication device. The electric power receiver is installed in the watercraft, connected to the first battery, and operable to receive shore power. The controller is configured or programmed to send device data to the server in a normal electric power mode when the first battery is connected to the shore power. The controller is configured or programmed to send the device data to the server in a low electric power mode when a low electric power condition, including a condition that the first battery is not connected to the shore power, is satisfied. The controller is configured or programmed to reduce data traffic of the device data to be sent to the server in the low electric power mode compared to when in the normal electric power mode.

Abstract: A fuse-equipped hermetic terminal includes: a housing provided with a hollow portion and a pair of through holes located with the hollow portion being interposed therebetween; a conductive pin extending through the housing via the pair of through holes and the hollow portion; and a pair of insulating sealing materials that each hermetically seal a gap between the conductive pin and a corresponding one of the pair of through holes. Each of the conductive pins includes an inner pin, an outer pin, and a fuse element that bridges between the inner pin and the outer pin and that is located in the hollow portion.

Abstract: A high-pressure-resistant hermetic seal terminal includes an eyelet which has a through hole and a lead which is electrically insulated and hermetically sealed via a glass material in the through hole. The glass material is welded in a manner to extend on a lower surface of the eyelet from an end of the through hole to surroundings of the end of the through hole. Preferably, the eyelet has a counterbore, in the lower surface, extending in a region around and surrounding the through hole, and the glass material is welded to the inside of the counterbore.
