2. WIRING, SETTINGS

The Weather Station instrument can be connected using the NMEA 0183 interface
or the NMEA 2000® network standard.
Before doing the wiring, please note the following points:
• To reduce electrical interference, separate the cables from other electrical wiring
and the engine.
• Be careful not to tear the cable jackets when passing them through bulkheads
and other parts of the boat.
• Coil any excess cable(s) and secure it with a zip-tie to prevent damage.
• The LEN (Load Equivalency Number) for this equipment is 13. (LEN is the
amount of current a device draws from the NMEA 2000 network.1 LEN = 50mA.)
2.1 NMEA 2000

2.1.1 Direct Connection

Insert the contact pin (supplied) into the #5 socket of the Weather Station connector
to activate the termination resistor. (See page 8 for location of #5 socket.) Route
the cable assembly to the NMEA 2000® device. Coil any excess cable and secure
it with a cable tie to prevent damage. Connect the cable assembly to the NMEA
2000® device.
