7. Place the GMI 10 into the cutout.
8. Securely tighten the four mounting screws through the GMI 10 into the drilled mounting holes.
NOTE: Stainless-steel screws may bind when screwed into fiberglass and overtightened. Garmin recommends
applying an anti-galling, stainless anti-seize lubricant to the screw before using.
9. Install the mounting covers by snapping them into place.
Step 3: Connect the GMI 10 to Sensors and to Power
The GMI 10 can connect to sensors using either NMEA 2000 or NMEA 0183.
Connecting the GMI 10 through NMEA 2000
The GMI 10 is packaged with the necessary NMEA 2000 connectors and
cable to either connect the GMI 10 to your existing NMEA 2000 network or
to build a basic NMEA 2000 network. For more information on NMEA 2000,
visit
4 to either connect the GMI 10 to your existing NMEA 2000 network or to
build a basic NMEA 2000 network.
To connect the GMI 10 to your existing NMEA 2000 network:
1. Determine where you would like to connect the GMI 10 to your existing
NMEA 2000 backbone.
NMEA 018ꢁ
Data
NMEA ꢀ000
2. Disconnect one side of a NMEA 2000 T-connector from the backbone at
an appropriate location.
If you need to extend the NMEA 2000 backbone, connect an appropriate NMEA 2000 backbone extension cable (not
included) to the side of the T-connector you disconnected.
3. Add the included T-connector for the GMI 10 in the NMEA 2000 backbone by connecting it to the side of the
T-connector you disconnected.
4. Route the included drop cable to the bottom of the T-connector you just added to your NMEA 2000 network.
If the included drop cable is not long enough, you can use a drop cable up to 20 ft. (6 m) long (not included).
5. Connect the drop cable to the T-connector and the GMI 10.
Notice
If you have an existing NMEA 2000 network on your boat, it should already be connected to power. Do not connect
the included NMEA 2000 power cable to an existing NMEA 2000 network, because only one power source should be
connected to a NMEA 2000 network.
To create a basic NMEA 2000 Network
1. Connect the two T-connectors together by their sides.
2. The included NMEA 2000 power cable must be connected to a 12 Vdc power source through a switch. Connect to
the ignition switch of the boat if possible, or through an appropriate additional switch (not included).
3. Connect the NMEA 2000 power cable to one of the T-connectors.
4. Connect the included NMEA 2000 drop cable to the other T-connector and to the GMI 10.
5. Add additional T-connectors for each sensor (not included) you want to add to the NMEA 2000 network, and connect
each sensor to a T-connector with the appropriate drop cable (not included).
6. Connect the appropriate terminators to each end of the combined T-connectors.
Notice
You must connect the included NMEA 2000 power cable to the ignition switch of the boat, or through an external
switch. The GMI 10 will drain your battery if it is connected directly.

Connecting the GMI 10 through NMEA 0183
The GMI 10 can receive NMEA 0183 data from one device. The GMI 10 displays the received data, but cannot transmit
the data to another NMEA 0183 device or transmit the data to a NMEA 2000 network.
Use the diagrams to wire a NMEA 0183 device to your GMI 10. Use 22 AWG, shielded, twisted-pair wiring for
extended runs of wire. Solder all connections and seal them with heat-shrink tubing.

Notes:
•
Consult the instructions for your NMEA 0183-compliant device to identify the Tx/A(+) and Tx/ B(-) wires.
•
When connecting NMEA 0183 devices with two transmitting and two receiving lines, it is not necessary for the
NMEA 2000 bus and the NMEA 0183 device to connect to a common ground.
•
The yellow (accessory on) wire and the black (accessory ground) wire are used only when wiring the GMI 10 to a
Garmin GPS 17/17x antenna.

If your NMEA 0183-compatible device has only one transmitting wire (Tx), connect it to the brown wire (Rx/A) from
the GMI 10, and connect the green wire (Rx/B) from the GMI 10 to NMEA ground.
