RIM 200 Green wire to Radar Antenna small Blue wire
NOTE:
Up to two or three switches may be used for this installation de-
pending on the RIM 200 model you have (three branch or four
branch). These switches prevent cable plug corrosion and the risk of
draining your boat's battery.
2. The RIM 200 works from a 12-volt DC battery system. The display
unit power cable has four wires: red, black, blue and green. You will use
the red and black wires to power your display unit. Attach the red wire
(+) and the black wire (–) to an accessory switch or power bus connected
to a 12-volt battery. If this results in electrical interference, connect
direct to the battery, but install an in-line power switch on the cable.
If possible, keep the power cable away from other boat wiring, espe-
cially the engine's wires. This will provide the best isolation from elec-
trical noise. If the cable is not long enough, splice #18 gauge wire onto
it. Make sure to attach the in-line fuse holder to the red lead as close to
the power source as possible. Make sure it is fused with a 3-amp fuse.
3. The blue and green wires (Com port 2) can be used to exchange GPS
position data with any NMEA 0183-compatible device. Connect the dis-
play unit power cable blue (TX) transmit wire to the receive (RX) wire
from the NMEA 0183 device.
