 : Some GPS chart plotters have a single wire for NMEA signal ground.
In such a case connect the NMEA input (–) to the GPS chart plotter's
single NMEA signal ground wire, and leave the NMEA output (–) open.
In case the assignment of power supply and ground of a GPS chart
plotter to be used is different from that of the radio, connect the signal
ground wire of the GPS chart plotter to the ground terminal (GND) on the
