NMEA data named CAN High and CAN Low. These connections will be labelled as “NET HI” and “NET LO” Fully configurable via the USB or over the NMEA 2000 respectively. Power is also supplied through the NMEA network allowing optimisation of the PC interface to better 2000 cable named NET Supply and NET Common.
Please ensure that, when opening the case, you use precautions against static damage If you need to use your own NMEA 2000 cable, the by only touching the connector block and by holding five way screw terminal block is provided within the the unit by its plastic base.
