Installation
Mounting Location
1. Select a convenient, dry, mounting location for the water-
resistant Gateway, a minimum of 1m (3') from the PC (see
Figure 1).
2. Hold the Gateway at the selected location and mark the position
of the screw holes. If the box will be mounted on a vertical
surface, face the cables downward to avoid water seeping into
the box.
3. At the marked locations, drill the holes for the screws. Do not
fasten the Gateway in place at this time.
NMEA 2000 Network Cable
Route the network cable from the Gateway to the network
backbone cable. Do not connect the cable or fasten it in place at
this time.
PC Cable
Route the PC cable from the Gateway to the PC. Do not connect
the cable or fasten it in place at this time.
Completing the Installation
1. Fasten the Gateway in place with the screws supplied.
2. Plug the NMEA 2000 network cable into the network.
3. Plug the PC cable into the PC.
4. Fasten all the cables in place. Coil any excess cable(s) and
secure it with cable ties to prevent damage.
