Using one of the SHORT SeaTalk

2

cables, connect the NMEA 2000 terminal on the

DPU to the FOURTH terminal of the 5 way SeaTalk

connector block.

Securing cables and replacing cover

When all of the DPU cables have all been connected, secure each cable to the

loops on the DPU, using the cable ties provided.
When all cables are secure, replace the DPU cover.
Do not use the DPU with the cover removed, as this could degrade the EMC

performance.
