CobraMarine Chartplotter MC 600C Series
Your CobraMarine VHF radio is set up to connect directly to your chartplotter with a
custom accessory cable that eases the installation.
The chartplotter uses a state-of-the-art electronic chart system, designed as a
custom navigation aid. All calculations and information necessary for the navigation
are performed and displayed on the chartplotter quickly and accurately providing all
of the capabilities of a conventional GPS, but with the added benefit of a powerful
electronic chart display.
Wiring the chartplotter to the transceiver is made easy with a custom-made optional
Accessory Cable harness P/N CM 140-001. This cable has a molded 8-pin connector
that plugs directly into the appropriate connectors on the MR F80 and the MC 600C
Series.
To Install the Chartplotter:
1. Install the chartplotter in a convenient location according to the chartplotter
owner’s manual.
2. Complete the Electrical Power Connection to the power cable as detailed on
page 29.
3. Connect the red and black bullet connectors on the power cable supplied with the
MR F80 to the mating connectors on the CM 140-001 cable.
4. Connect the red and black bullet connectors on the back of the radio to the
mating connectors on the CM 140-001 cable.
