Engine ignition input connection: The GoFree Track module has the capability to be connected to an engine ignition circuit. Connecting this input will enable software in the Track device to conserve ship battery power when needed, and report engine ignition and shutdown conditions to the server. Please connect these leads to an ignition on/off circuit and configure this input at: www.gofreemarine.com/vessel NMEA 2000 connection The NMEA 2000 connector is located on one of the three wires which exit the GoFree Track module. A NMEA 2000 connection can be made at any point on an NMEA 2000 network. The GoFree Track module is supplied with a male NMEA 2000 connector. If extension cables and connection blocks are required to reach the NMEA 2000 backbone they can be purchased separately from Navico. See the GoFree vessel configuration settings for the comprehensive list of supported NMEA 2000 values captured by the GoFree Track module located at: www.gofreemarine.com/vessel Diesel engine connection Navico provides a common SAE specified type adapter which contains a round 9 pin Deutsch connector. If an alternative connector is required contact your diesel engine manufacture or Navico product support. Navico provides an extension cable to extend to the engine which uses two a three pin Deutsch connector. This extension cable contains a 120 ohm resistor. This resistors is required for extending the J1939 data bus. Conn. 1 Conn. 2 Conn. 3 See the GoFree Vessel configuration settings for a comprehensive list of the engine values which are captured by the GoFree Track module: www.gofreemarine.com/vessel GoFree Track Antennas The Track module is supplied with a combination antenna for transmitting and receiving data. The Track-CELLFI module is supplied with a combination Cellular, GPS and WIFI antenna and the Track -WIFI module is supplied with a combination GPS and WIFI antenna. Each antenna is supplied with three meter cables and can be connected directly to the Track module via the supplied SMA type connectors.
