Final Wiring Connection
After all the wiring is complete, the cables are attached on the backside of the GPSMAP 3000 series chartplotter. If the chartplotter is not
connected to a Garmin Marine Network, be sure to firmly affix the weather cap over the open connector to limit corrosion of the contacts. The
connection ports are labeled on the back of the chartplotter.
To install the Power/NMEA, Marine Video, and Network Cables:
1. Align the notch and locking ring tab on the black Power/NMEA cable with the black POWER/NMEA port on the back of the unit. Carefully
press the cable in until it is firmly seated. Do not force the cable, because this may damage the pins.
2. After the cable is seated, turn the locking ring clockwise until it stops.
3. Repeat S*teps 1 and 2, attaching the gray Marine Video cable to the gray VIDEO port on the back of the unit.
4. If you are connecting the GPSMAP 3000 series chartplotter to a Garmin Marine Network, insert the RJ-45 connector into the NETWORK
port on the back of the unit and screw the locking ring in clockwise until it is firmly seated.
With power applied to the circuit, test the installation by pressing the PoWER key on the front of the unit. Refer to your GPSMAP 3000 series
Owner's Manual for steps on initializing and using the chartplotter.
