Installation guide

8
Ensure the mounting holes on the device line up with the pilot
holes on the template.
9
If the mounting holes on the device do not line up with the
pilot holes on the template, mark the new pilot-hole locations
on your template.
10
Using a 3.2 mm (
1
/
8
in.) drill bit, drill the pilot holes.
11
Remove the template from the mounting surface.
12
Place the device in the cradle.
13
Install the rubber gasket on the back of the device.
The rubber gasket has adhesive on the back. Make sure you
remove the protective liner before installing it on the device.
14
Connect all necessary cables, and spin the locking rings
clockwise to secure the cables to the cradle before placing it
into the cutout.
TIP: To prevent corrosion of the metal contacts, cover
unused connectors with weather caps.
15
Place the device into the cutout.
16
Secure the device to the mounting surface using the included
screws.
17
Install the trim caps by snapping them in place around the
edges of the device.
Installing the Cables and Connectors
Connecting to Power
WARNING
When connecting the power cable, do not remove the in-line
fuse holder. To prevent the possibility of injury or product
damage caused by fire or overheating, the appropriate fuse
must be in place as indicated in the product specifications. In
addition, connecting the power cable without the appropriate
fuse in place voids the product warranty.
1
Route the power cable to the power source and to the device.
2
If necessary, extend the wires using 1.31 mm
2
(16 AWG) or
larger wire.
3
Connect the red wire to the positive (+) battery terminal, and
connect the black wire to the negative (-) battery terminal.
4
Connect the power cable to the device, and turn the locking
ring clockwise to tighten it.
Wiring Harness
• The wiring harness is used for NMEA
®
0183 devices, and to
share route and waypoint information.
• The wiring harness connects the device to power and NMEA
0183 devices.
• The device has one internal NMEA 0183 port that is used to
connect to NMEA 0183 compliant devices.
• If it is necessary to extend the power and ground wires, you
must use 1.31 mm
2
(16 AWG) or larger wire.
• If it is necessary to extend the NMEA 0183 or alarm wires,
you must use .33 mm
2
(22 AWG) wire.

Connecting the Device to a Transducer
Go to www.garmin.com/transducers or contact your local
Garmin dealer to determine the appropriate type of transducer
for your needs.
1
Follow the instructions provided with your transducer to
correctly install it on your boat.
2
Route the transducer cable to the back of your device, away
from sources of electrical interference.
3
Connect the transducer cable to the appropriate port on the
cradle.
Installing the Device in the Cradle
After the cables are connected to the cradle, you can quickly
place the device in the cradle.
1
Place the base of the device in the bottom of the cradle.
2
Tilt the top of the device toward the cradle.
3
Press the button on the release level, and push the release
lever down until the device clicks in place.
Removing the Device from the Cradle
1
Press the button on the release lever on the cradle, and pull
the lever up.
2
Tilt the device forward, and lift the device out of the cradle.

Considerations
NOTICE
If you are connecting to an existing NMEA 2000 network,
identify the NMEA 2000 power cable. Only one NMEA 2000
power cable is required for the NMEA 2000 network to operate
properly.
A NMEA 2000 Power Isolator (010-11580-00) should be used in
installations where the existing NMEA 2000 network
manufacturer is unknown.
