2.4 Connecting the GPS100
The Maretron GPS100 provides a connection to an NMEA 2000 ® interface through a
connector that can be found on the bottom of the device (see Figure 3).
Figure 3 – GPS100 Interface Connector
The NMEA 2000
® connector is a five pin male connector (see Figure 4). You connect the
GPS100 to an NMEA 2000 ® network using a Maretron NMEA 2000 ® cable (or compatible
cable) by connecting the female end of the cable to the GPS100 (note the key on the male
connector and keyway on the female connector). Be sure the cable is connected securely and
that the collar on the cable connector is tightened firmly. Connect the other end of the cable
(male) to the NMEA 2000
® network in the same manner. The GPS100 is designed such that
you can plug or unplug it from an NMEA 2000 ® network while the power to the network is
connected or disconnected. Please follow recommended practices for installing NMEA 2000 ®
network products.
