shared information. Please note the buss must be powered to operate.
(See instructions in this section on powering a NMEA 2000 buss.)
IMPORTANT NOTE:
The data from your internal GPS receiver will not be trans-
mitted across the LowranceNET NMEA 2000 network. You
must have an LGC-2000 GPS antenna module in the network
for that to happen. Installation instructions for the LGC-
2000 and other electronic probe sensors are available in the
document "Using LowranceNET
NMEA
2000 Devices with
LMS-334, LMS-339 and GlobalMap
3600." If the document is
missing, download it free at www.lowrance.com or contact
customer service.
NMEA 0183 Cable Connections
NMEA 0183 is a standard communications format for marine electronic
equipment. For example, an autopilot can connect to the NMEA inter-
face on the GlobalMap 3600C and receive positioning information. The
GlobalMap 3600C can exchange information with any device that
transmits or receives NMEA 0183 data.
See the following diagram for general wiring connections. Read your
other product’s owner’s manual for more wiring information.
NMEA 0183 Wiring
(Data cable)
To exchange NMEA 0183 data, the GlobalMap 3600C has one NMEA
0183 version 2.0 communication port. Com port one (Com-1) can be
used to receive NMEA format GPS data. The com port can also trans-
mit NMEA format GPS data to another device.
The four wires for the com port are combined with the Power Supply cable
and NMEA 2000 Power cable to form the power/data cable (shown earlier).
Com-1 uses the yellow wire to transmit, the orange wire to receive and the
shield wire for signal ground. Your unit does not use the blue wire.
