    MX61x navigation system; basic wiring principles The MX610 or MX612 navigation system is comprised of the MX61x display unit, MX61xJB junction box and MX521A/B smart D/GPS antenna unit. The MX61x display use CAN bus backbone which makes it simple to interface to SimNet and other NMEA 2000 (N2K) devices.
  • Page 76: Can Bus

    6 m (20 ft). FEMALE In a default MX610/MX612 system the CAN bus backbone expands from the MX610JB, which supplies power to the backbone. There will always be a female connector in the expanding end of the backbone cables.
  • Page 77: Power Supply

    Terminating the CAN bus The CAN bus must have a 120 Ohm terminator at each end of the backbone. In a default MX610/MX612 system the CAN bus can be powered and terminated from the junction box PCB, enabled by the micro switch.
