NMEA Connections
For older equipment with only NMEA0183 interfaces, you can use the NMEA0183 wiring loom. However, for equipment with both NMEA0183 and NMEA2000, it’s best to use the NMEA2000 connection for faster data flow. Don’t forget to properly terminate the NMEA2000 connection at the end of the bus to ensure everything works smoothly.
The illustration and table below shows the NMEA0183 connections you'll need to make if you want to use the NMEA0183 connector.
If you prefer to use the NMEA2000 connection, simply connect the radio via the NMEA2000 port located on the back of the X100 to your vessel's NMEA 2000 bus. Click here to view the exact location.
