GPS 17 cable. Solder all connections and seal them with heat shrink tubing. NoTE: If you are using more than one Garmin chartplotter over a Garmin Marine Network, only wire one chartplotter to a GPS 17. The GPS signal is shared between multiple chartplotters connected to a Garmin Marine Network. - Page 8 DEVICES NoTE: Every device connected to the Garmin Marine Network must be connected to the boat’s power supply. These diagrams only show the network connections, and do not show the power connections. Wire each device according to its installation instructions.
- Page 9 Connecting a GPSMAP 4000/5000 Series chartplotter to an existing Garmin Marine Network NoTE: When connecting a 4000/5000 series chartplotter to an existing Garmin Marine Network, the GMS 10 can be used, but is not necessary. The 4000/5000 series chartplotter has three network ports, and acts as a port expander. Wire the GPS 17 and additional NMEA devices to either the existing 3000 series chartplotter or the new 4000/5000 Series chartplotter.

Receiving (RX) A(+) and B(-) wires. Use 28 AWG, shielded, twisted pair wiring for extended runs of wire. Solder all connections and seal the connection with heat shrink tubing. Notes: • For 2-way communication with a NMEA 0183 device, the ports on the GPSMAP 4000/5000 units are not linked. For example, if the RX port of the NMEA-compliant device is wired to TX port 1 on the GPSMAP 4000/5000, you can wire the TX port of your NMEA 0183- compliant device to RX port 1, port 2, port 3, or port 4 on the GPSMAP 4000/5000. • The ground wires on the NMEA 0183 data cable from the GPSMAP 4000/5000 series unit and your NMEA 0183-compliant device must both be grounded. • Approved NMEA 0183 sentences—GPBWC, GPRMC, GPGGA, GPGSA, GPGSV, GPGLL, GPBOD, GPRMB, GPRTE, GPVTG, GPWPL, GPXTE, and Garmin proprietary sentences—PGRME, PGRMM, and PGRMZ. • This unit also includes support for the WPL sentence, DSC, and sonar NMEA 0183 input with support for the DPT (depth) or DBT, MTW (water temp), and VHW (water temp, speed, and heading) sentences. • Use the Communications section of the Configure menu on the GPSMAP 4000/5000 series unit to set up NMEA 0183 communications.
