3. Place the GPS 17x in the under-deck mounting bracket.
4. Adhere the under-deck mounting bracket to the mounting surface.
5. Connect the NMEA 2000 drop cable to the GPS 17x. Route the cable away from sources of
electronic interference, and connect it to power and a NMEA 0183-compliant device
Step 2: Connect the GPS 17x to Power and a NMEA 0183-
compliant device
The GPS 17x NMEA 0183 HVS must be connected to power. Use the diagrams to correctly
wire the GPS 17x. In the diagrams, Tx = transmit, and Rx = receive.
You can connect up to three NMEA 0183-compliant devices to receive data from one GPS 17x
NMEA 0183 HVS antenna.
