Guideline for Connecting
Follow these guidelines when selecting a mounting location.
• Where the cable connectors and CAN bus/NMEA2000 connectors are subjected to moisture or
water spray, waterproof the connectors as shown below.
1. Wrap the connection point with a single layer of vinyl tape.
2. Wrap one layer of self-bonding tape over the vinyl tape.
3. Wrap two layers of vinyl tape over the self-bonding tape.

NMEA 0183 Network Connection
Optional interface unit IF-NMEASC is required when connecting with NMEA0183 equipment. For
IF-NMEASC, see the Operator's Manual of the IF-NMEASC.
2.2.1
How to connect the Cable Assembly (FRU-NMEA-NFF-R15/30)
The installation of the other terminal connector and T-connector is not required because the
FRU-NMEA-NFF-R15/30 is the terminal resistance internal cable of 120 ohm.
Securing and waterproofing connections
• Where the cable connectors and CAN bus/NMEA2000 connectors are subjected to moisture or
water spray, waterproof the connectors as shown below.
1. Wrap the connection point with a single layer of vinyl tape.
2. Wrap one layer of self-bonding tape over the vinyl tape.
3. Wrap two layers of vinyl tape over the self-bonding tape.
STEP 1
Wrap connection in self-bonding tape
for waterproofing.
STEP 2
Wrap the self-bonding tape with vinyl tape, covering approx.
50 mm of the connecting cable.
Bind the tape ends with cable cable ties to prevent the tape
from unraveling.
