addition, connecting the power cable without the appropriate 

fuse in place voids the product warranty.

1

Route the wiring harness to the power source and to the 

device.

2

Connect the red wire to the positive (+) battery terminal, and 

connect the black wire to the negative (-) battery terminal.

3

If necessary, install the locking ring and O-ring on the end of 

the wiring harness.

4

Insert the cable into the POWER connector on the back of 

the device, pushing firmly.

5

Turn the locking ring clockwise to attach the cable to the 

device.

Additional Grounding Consideration

This consideration is applicable only to devices that have a 

grounding screw. Not all models have a grounding screw.
This device should not need additional chassis grounding in 

most installation situations.

NMEA 2000

 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.
If you are installing a NMEA 2000 power cable, you must 

connect it to the RV ignition switch or through another in-line 

switch. NMEA 2000 devices will drain your battery if the NMEA 

2000 power cable is connected to the battery directly.

This device can connect to a NMEA 2000 network on your RV to 

share data from NMEA 2000 compatible devices such as a VHF 

radio. The included NMEA 2000 cables and connectors allow 

you to connect the device to your existing NMEA 2000 network. 

If you do not have an existing NMEA 2000 network you can 

create a basic one using cables from Garmin.
To use a FUSION

®

 stereo and digital switching server, you must 

connect the devices to the same NMEA 2000 network.
If you are unfamiliar with NMEA 2000, you should read the 

“NMEA 2000 Network Fundamentals” chapter of the 

Technical 

Reference for NMEA 2000 Products

. You can find this document 

using the “Manuals” link on the product page for your device at 

www.garmin.com

.

The port labeled NMEA 2000 is used to connect the device to a 

standard NMEA 2000 network.

Composite Video Considerations

This device allows video input from composite video sources 

using the port labeled CVBS IN. When connecting composite 

video, you should observe these considerations.
• The CVBS IN port uses a BNC connector. You can use a 

BNC to RCA adapter to connect a composite-video source 

with RCA connectors to the CVBS IN port.

• Video is not shared across the NMEA 2000 network.
