The G142FD can be connected to external devices with
NMEA0183 and display information such as:
• DSC VHF Radio
• GPS antenna (NMEA 0183)
• Navtex
• AIS receiver
DSC VHF radio
Fit and set up the optional DSC VHF radio see following
drawings, NMEA0183(1) IN and NMEA0183(2) IN.
Other NMEA instruments
NMEA is an industry standard for interconnecting instruments.
The fishfinder can be connected to other NMEA instruments.
Set up the optional NMEA instruments see drawings below.
• The fishfinder can receive and display depth, paddlewheel
boat speed and water temperature from an optional
compatible instrument.
• The fishfinder can receive data from an optional compatible
GPS or GPS/DGPS source.
• The fishfinder can send GPS position and other navigation
data to an autopilot or other instrument. An autopilot
requires APB, APA and VTG sentences
A data to other instruments, set NMEA out and specify the
NMEA data to send.
Output (1) NMEA 0183
Input (1) NMEA 0183
The NMEA2000 standard is regulated by The National
Marine Electronics Association in USA. The fishfinder can be
connected to external devices with NMEA2000 and display
information such as following:
• Engines have fuel flow sensors, therefore fuel sensors are
not required.
• The G142FD can receive and display wind speed and
direction from an optional compatible wind instrument.
• The G142FD can receive and display depth from an
optional depth instruments.
• The G142FD can receive and display boat speed and water
temperature from a paddlewheel sensor on a optional
speed instrument. If connected display unit, use the cable
compatible with NMEA2000 standard.
