Using the GMI 10

Use the GMI 10 to view numerical

data provided by connected

sensors. Many data types can also

be displayed as an analog gauge

(

page 6

).

The types of data available

are determined by the sensors

connected to the GMI 10 either

through NMEA 2000 or NMEA

0183.
For example, when connected

to a GPS antenna such as a

GPS 17x, the GMI 10 can show

GPS position, course over ground,

speed over ground, average speed,

maximum speed obtained, and

distance traveled (trip odometer)

information.

Viewing Information

Instrument screens are organized by

category. The categories available

are:
Surface—speed, heading, odometer

(requires a GPS antenna or other

sensor that measures speed or

heading).
Water—depth and temperature

(requires a sonar device such as an

intelligent transducer).
Fuel—level, rate, range, economy

(requires a fuel sensor such as the

GFS 10). You must also have a

sensor that provides speed to use

range and economy information.
