NMEA 2000

GPSMAP 700 series chartplotters are NMEA 2000 certified and can receive data from a NMEA
2000 network installed on the boat to show specific information, such as depth, speed, water
temperature, wind speed and direction, and engine data.
To connect a GPSMAP 700 series chartplotter to an existing NMEA 2000 network and to see a list
of supported NMEA 2000 PGN numbers, see the GPSMAP 700 Series Installation Instructions.

Transmitting NMEA 0183 Data over a NMEA 2000 Network
You can turn on, configure, or turn off output bridging. Output bridging occurs when a chartplotter
takes NMEA 0183 data it receives from any source, formats it into NMEA 2000 data, and sends it
over the NMEA 2000 bus.
