The smallest hole that will pass the power plug is one inch. After the hole is drilled, pass the other cables up through the hole first, then pass the power cable down through it. After the cables have been routed, fill the hole with a good marine sealing compound. -
Page 6: Power Connections
This can come from either a Lowrance GPS module, Lowrance GPS receiver, or another manufacturer’s navigation receiver that can send the data in NMEA 0183 version 1.5 or 2.0 format. If you use the Lowrance GPS module, the NMEA input is not used. If you use any other navigation receiver for position information, then the NMEA input will have to be used. - Page 7 If you are using version 2.0, then you’ll be using all four shielded wires on the NMEA cable. If you’re using a Lowrance GPS module, simply plug its cable directly into the in-line connector on the mapping unit’s cable. This sends navigation data directly to the mapping unit without using any NMEA input.
