Garmin GPS 19x NMEA 0183 Installation Instructions Manual

Pole Mounting the GPS 17x Antenna

With the pole-mount adapter attached to the GPS 17x, you can install the GPS 17x on a

standard 1 in. OD pipe-threaded-pole marine mount (14 threads per inch—not included). You

can run the power/data cable through the pole or outside the pole.

To mount the GPS 17x with the cable run outside the pole:

1. Route the power/data drop cable through the pole-mount adapter, and place the cable in the

vertical slot along the base of the pole-mount adapter.

2. Thread the pole-mount adapter onto a standard 1 in. OD pipe-threaded-pole marine mount

(14 threads per inch—not included). Do not overtighten the adapter.

3. Connect the power/data drop cable to the GPS 17x

antenna.

4. Place the GPS 17x antenna on the pole-mount

adapter

and twist it clockwise to lock it in place

5. Secure the antenna to the adapter with the included

M3 set screw

6. (Optional) With the GPS 17x installed on the pole

mount, fill the remaining gap in the vertical cable

slot with a marine sealant.

7. Attach the marine mount to the boat if it is not

already attached.

8. Route the cable away from sources of electronic

interference, and connect it to power and a NMEA

0183-compliant device

To mount the GPS 17x with the cable run through the pole:

1. Position a standard 1 in. OD pipe-threaded-pole marine mount (14 threads per inch—not

included) in the preferred location, and mark the approximate center of the pole.

2. Drill a hole using a

3. Fasten the marine mount to the boat.

4. Thread the pole-mount adapter onto the pole. Do not overtighten the adapter.

5. Route the power/data drop cable through the pole and connect it to the GPS 17x antenna.

Under-deck-mounting the GPS 17x Antenna

The GPS 17x can be mounted under a fiberglass surface with the included adhesive pads. The

GPS 17x will not acquire satellite signals through metal—you can only use the under-deck

mount under a fiberglass surface.

1. Determine the location on the fiberglass

surface where you want to mount the

GPS 17x.

2. Place the adhesive pads on the under-

deck mounting bracket.

There are holes in the under-deck

mounting bracket that can be used to

secure the under-deck mount to the

mounting surface with screws. Garmin

does not recommend attaching the

under-deck mounting bracket to the surface with screws, because of the likelihood that

screws will extend beyond the top of the mounting surface. If you choose to use screws, do

so with extreme care.
