To connect a video sounder and a navigator, use NMEA cable MJ-A6SPF0003-050/MJ-
A6SPF0009-100 (optional supply) and solder it as shown below.

Note 1

Figure 3-4 Connection of video sounder and navigator cables

Note 1:

Tape unused wires to prevent short.

Note 2:

Do not use a cross wiring-type NMEA cable which has connectors at both ends (for

example, MJ-A6SPF0012-050). Miswiring can result if one of the connectors is
removed to make the connection to the remote display.

Note 3:

You may cut an NMEA cable which has a connector at both ends. However, do not

modify a waterproof connector because watertight integrity cannot be guaranteed.

Note 4:

Data is alternately displayed when two of the same type of data is input.

To connect a navigator or echosounder whose NMEA output uses other than a FURUNO 6
pin NMEA connector, use NMEA cable type MJ-A6SPF0003-050/MJ-A6SPF0009-100 to
make the connection.
