GPSMAP 6000/7000 Series Installation Instructions

under-deck-mounting the GPS 19x Antenna

The GPS 19x antenna can be mounted under a fiberglass surface with the adhesive pads attached to the under-deck mounting bracket. The GPS

19x will not acquire satellite signals through metal—you can only use the under-deck mount under a fiberglass surface.

1. Determine the location on the fiberglass surface where you want to mount the GPS 19x.
2. Place the adhesive pads on the under-deck mounting bracket.
3. Place the GPS 19x in the under-deck mounting bracket.
4. Adhere the under-deck mounting bracket to the mounting surface.
5. Secure the under-deck mount to the mounting surface with screws. Use extreme care to ensure that the screws do not penetrate the upper

surface of the deck.

6. Connect a NMEA 2000 drop cable to the GPS 19x.
7. Route the NMEA 2000 drop cable away from sources of electronic interference, and connect it to your NMEA 2000 network (

Installing Cables

The GPSMAP 6000/7000 series chartplotter is packaged with the following cables:
• A two-pin power cable
• A 19-pin NMEA 0183 data cable
• A 17-pin marine video cable (the GPSMAP 7015/7215 chartplotter is packaged with two different marine video cables)
• NMEA 2000 cables and connectors

Installing Locking Rings on the Cables

To help make the cable-routing process easier, the locking rings are packaged separately from the cables. Each locking ring is packaged in a

small bag with a number on the label for easy identification. After you route the cables, use the following table to identify the correct locking

ring for each cable:

NoteS:
• The NMEA 2000 cables and connectors come with the locking rings pre-installed. Do not remove the locking ring from a NMEA 2000 cable

while routing the cable.

• Optional Garmin Marine Network components use specialized Garmin Network cables (not included). Each network cable is also

packaged with a separate locking ring, in a bag labeled with a

. A network-cable specific locking ring should not be used with a

GPSMAP 6000/7000 cable.
