Connecting the Device to a Garmin Marine Radar Devices that can receive information from a Garmin radar have a port labeled ETHERNET. Go to www.garmin.com or contact your local Garmin dealer to determine the appropriate type of radar for your needs. 1 Follow the instructions provided with your Garmin radar to install it on your boat correctly. 2 Route the Garmin Marine Network cable from the radar to the back of your device, away from sources of electrical interference. 3 Connect the Garmin Marine Network cable to the ETHERNET port on your device. Radar, Sonar, and Map Sharing Considerations Devices that can share supplemental map information and view data from a single radar or sonar module at the same time have a port labeled ETHERNET. Go to www.garmin.com or contact your local Garmin dealer to determine the appropriate type of devices for your needs. When connecting this device to compatible ETHERNET devices, you should observe these considerations. • This device is compatible only with other Garmin ETHERNET devices, and does not share data with Garmin Marine Network devices such as a GPSMAP 8000 series device. • This device is not compatible with legacy Garmin sounder modules such as the GSD™ 26. • If your device receives sonar data from a transducer connected to the SONAR port, it does not share the sonar data with other ETHERNET devices. • A Garmin Marine Network cable must be used for all ETHERNET connections. ◦ Third-party CAT5 cable and RJ45 connectors must not be used for ETHERNET connections. ◦ Additional Garmin Marine Network cables and connectors are available from your Garmin dealer. • If this device has a single ETHERNET port, you may need to use a Garmin network switch, such as a GMS™ 10 to connect a radar or sounder module to more than one ETHERNET device. • If this device has both a RADAR port and an ETHERNET port, you can connect an ETHERNET device to either port. • Some sounder modules, such as the GCV™ 10 have more than one ETHERNET port, and can connect to multiple ETHERNET devices without an additional network switch. 3

•
When connecting a NMEA 0183 device with only one
transmitting (Tx) wire or with only one receiving (Rx) wire,
the NMEA 2000 bus and the NMEA 0183 device must be
connected to a common ground.

Lamp or Horn Connections
The device can be used with a lamp, a horn, or both, to sound
or flash an alert when the chartplotter displays a message. This
is optional, and the alarm wire is not necessary for the device to
function normally. When connecting the device to a lamp or
horn, observe these considerations.
•
The alarm circuit switches to a low-voltage state when the
alarm sounds.
•
The maximum current is 100 mA, and a relay is needed to
limit the current from the chartplotter to 100 mA.
•
To manually toggle visual and audible alerts, you can install
single-pole, single-throw switches.

Connecting the Device to a Transducer
Devices that can receive depth information from a Garmin
transducer have a port labeled SONAR. Go to
www.garmin.com
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
install it on your boat correctly.
2
Route the transducer cable to the back of your device, away
from sources of electrical interference.
3
Connect the transducer cable to the SONAR port on your
device.
Connecting the Device to an External Garmin
Sounder Module
Devices that can receive information from an external Garmin
sounder module have a port labeled ETHERNET. Go to
www.garmin.com
or contact your local Garmin dealer to
determine the appropriate type of sonar device for your needs.
1
Follow the instructions provided with your sounder module to
install it on your boat correctly.
2

Radar, Sonar, and Map Sharing Considerations
Devices that can share supplemental map information and view
data from a single radar or sonar module at the same time have
a port labeled ETHERNET. Go to
www.garmin.com
or contact
your local Garmin dealer to determine the appropriate type of
devices for your needs.
When connecting this device to compatible ETHERNET
devices, you should observe these considerations.
•
This device is compatible only with other Garmin
ETHERNET devices, and does not share data with Garmin
Marine Network devices such as a GPSMAP 8000 series
device.
•
This device is not compatible with legacy Garmin sounder
modules such as the GSD™ 26.
•
If your device receives sonar data from a transducer
connected to the SONAR port, it does not share the sonar
data with other ETHERNET devices.
•
A Garmin Marine Network cable must be used for all
ETHERNET connections.
◦
Third-party CAT5 cable and RJ45 connectors must not be
used for ETHERNET connections.
◦
Additional Garmin Marine Network cables and connectors
are available from your Garmin dealer.
•
If this device has a single ETHERNET port, you may need to
use a Garmin network switch, such as a GMS™ 10 to
connect a radar or sounder module to more than one
ETHERNET device.
•
If this device has both a RADAR port and an ETHERNET
port, you can connect an ETHERNET device to either port.
•
Some sounder modules, such as the GCV™ 10 have more
than one ETHERNET port, and can connect to multiple
ETHERNET devices without an additional network switch.
