Troubleshooting the Gauge Type

When connected to a gauge, the GET 10 adapter gauge type is set to auto Detect by default,
and the adapter automatically detects the type of gauge it is connected to. If the engine-tilt
reading on a connected Garmin chartplotter or marine instrument changes with the engine
RPM, the adapter may be detecting the wrong type of gauge.
To test the gauge-type setting:
1. When the boat is not moving, put the engine in neutral.
2. Use the throttle to increase the engine RPM. If the engine-tilt reading changes with the
engine RPM, change the gauge type.
To change the gauge type:
1. From the NMEA 2000 Devices list, select the GET 10 device.
2. Select an option:
For most Garmin chartplotters, select
For other Garmin marine devices, select
3. Select an option:
To automatically detect the gauge type, select
To indicate a one-coil gauge, select
To indicate a two-coil gauge, select
4. Perform the gauge-type setting test.
