Yamaha Y-COP
Yamaha is introducing a full new Yamaha Y-COP theft-deterrent system. Although
it is part of Yamaha’s new Drive-by-wire Helm Master EX line-up, it works on boats
powered by any EFI Yamaha outboard, even in combination with Yamaha’s previous
rigging system.
THE IMPORTANCE OF THEFT-DETERRENT SYSTEMS
Unfortunately, theft of outboard motors is a recurring story. Yamaha’s Y-COP, an effective, easy to install and simple to use theft
deterrent system, is available as an option for all Yamaha EFI outboards.
As a unit with enabled Y-COP can only be unlocked by the owner, this will significantly reduce the interest in stealing Yamaha
outboards. This is not only a ‘peace of mind’ for the customer, but will, in many countries, also reduce his insurance costs. (the
customer should check with his insurance company whether and what benefits he will get after installing Y-COP).
With Yamaha’s new Helm Master EX suite of Rigging components, there is a new, more advanced, version of Y-COP available
YAMAHA’S NEW Y-COP VERSION
The new version of Y-COP consists of an all new key-fob and a separate receiver, to be
mounted behind the dashboard. As the unit is directly linked to the outboard’s ECU, it
prevents the engine from starting when activated.
The buoyant key-fob is water resistant enough to survive short immersion in un-
deep water . Two fobs are provided with each Electronic Key Switch (EKS) panel,
and up to four more can be programmed into the system.
If necessary, such as in the case of loss, the operator can unlock the system using a
four-digit code assigned at the factory or one chosen by the operator. Additionally,
the battery-operated fob self-monitors its battery level and audibly alerts the
operator when the battery is low.
Together with the kit comes a ‘Y-COP’ sticker which can be put on the engine cowling
or the console next to the electronics panel, to clearly indicate the engines are
equipped with a Y-COP immobilizer.
EASY OPERATION OF YAMAHA’S NEW Y-COP
To lock the boat, simply turn-off the outboards and push the lock-button on the floating key-fob. Via the receiving unit, the
outboard’s ECU will be locked. A single ‘beep’ will sound on the boat, to assure the outboard (-s) are not possible to start anymore.
Upon arriving back at the boat, just getting close to the receiving unit in the console, will automatically release the outboards again,
indicated by a double ‘beep’ sound. There is no need to take the key-fob out of your pocket!
WHICH OUTBOARDS IS Y-COP COMPATIBLE WITH
Y-COP works on all EFI (Electronic Fuel Injection) Yamaha engines, which are all models from F20G and up (including tiller-handle
models). Y-COP can be combined with tiller handles, 6Y8 digital network switches and the new ‘Helm-master EX’ switches. 2nd
station is only available with the new Helm Master EX system. Y-COP is integrated in Yamaha’s new ‘Helm Master EX’ range of rigging
materials. When combining with 6X6 rigging materials, Y-COP can be purchased separately.
