1.3 Choosing the Mounting Location For a reliable GPS signal, selecting the best location for the receiver is very impor- tant. It can be mounted on a pole, rail, or flat surface. Choose a location that bal- ances the requirements below. • The GPS receiver must have a clear view of the sky to the horizon in all direc- tions. Note that frozen water spray may degrade reception. • Referring to the figure below for distances, mount away from any VHF radio, sat- ellite communications equipment, radar

WIRING, SETTINGS ® 2.1 NMEA 2000 Connection The LEN (Load Equivalency Number) for this equipment is 3. 2.1.1 Direct Connection Insert the contact pin (supplied) into the #5 socket of the GPS Receiver connector to activate the termination resistor. (See page 8 for location of #5 socket.) Route the cable assembly to the NMEA 2000® device. Coil any excess cable and secure it with a cable tie to prevent damage. Connect the cable assembly to the NMEA 2000® device. GP-330B Termination Resistor:

2.1.2 Network Connection Drop cable connection A drop cable is connected to a backbone cable with T-type connectors*. The back- bone cable is of the “light” type. Attach a terminator at the ends of the backbone ® cable. Only two termination resistors are required on an NMEA 2000 network. More than two will degrade performance. * Recommended type: LTWSS-050505-FMF-TS001 (LTW Technology, Inc.), or equivalent GP-330B Termination - NavNet 3D Series Power Resistor: OFF (12 VDC) - FI-50 Instrument
