NOTE: You must have the antenna oriented properly for the cover to fit.
4
While holding the antenna in the appropriate position, finger tighten the
antenna nut.
5
Using the included wrench, rotate the nut another 45 degrees to fully
tighten the antenna nut.
The recommended torque applied to the nut is 0.56 N-m (5 lbf-in.), or
finger tight plus 45 degrees.
NOTICE
To ensure a water-tight connection, tighten the antenna nut to 0.56 N-m
(5 lbf-in.). Over tightening the nut could cause damage to the device.
6
Place the cover
over the connecter.
7
Secure the cover using the small screw and included #0 Phillips
screwdriver.
8
Repeat these steps to install the second antenna.
Connection Considerations
When connecting this device to power and to other Garmin devices, you
should observe these considerations.
• You must check the power and ground connections to the battery to make
sure they are secured and cannot become loose.
• You must make sure the locking rings are tightened so the power or data
connection remains secure.
• Bare wire connections must be water tight if they will be exposed to
moisture. You can use heat-shrink type butt connectors or other water-tight
connections.
• To prevent corrosion of the metal contacts, you must cover unused
connectors with weather caps.
• For the best connection of the GPS antenna, completely remove the
weather cap from the GPS connector.
• If you need to extend the IN/OUT wires, use minimum of 24 AWG
2
(0.08 mm
) wire.
• You should install a 1 Amp fuse on all relay controls, Ignition Wake, Bilge
1/2, and Battery 1/2 input wires at the positive input to the power source.
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.
To properly monitor your vessel when the ignition is off, you should not
connect the power cable to the device through the ignition.
