HDMI Video Considerations

NOTICE

To prevent corrosion due to moisture, you must use Garmin 

GPSMAP accessory cables when connecting the chartplotter to 

the video source or display. Do not connect a media player stick 

directly into the back of the chartplotter. Using different cables or 

connecting a media player stick into the back of the chartplotter 

voids your warranty.

This chartplotter allows video input from HDMI video sources, 

such as a Chromecast

 device or a Blu-Ray

 player. You can 

view protected HDMI content (HDCP content) on the chartplotter 

screen, but not on an external screen.
HDMI video is shared across the Garmin Marine Network, but it 

is not shared across the NMEA 2000 network. HDCP content is 

not shared across the Garmin Marine Network. 
Through the HDMI OUT port, you can display the chartplotter on 

an external screen, such as a television or monitor. You cannot 

view HDCP content on an external screen.
The Garmin GPSMAP HDMI accessory cable is 4.5 m (15 ft) 

long. If you need a longer cable, you should use an active HDMI 

cable only. You need an HDMI coupler to connect the two HDMI 

cables.
You need a Garmin GPSMAP USB OTG adapter cable to power 

a media player stick. The USB port can supply up to 2.5 W to 

power a media player stick.
You must make all cable connections in a dry environment.

Composite Video Considerations

This chartplotter allows video input from composite video 

sources using the port labeled CVBS IN. When connecting 

composite video, you should observe these considerations.
• The CVBS IN port uses a BNC connector. You can use a 

BNC to RCA adapter to connect a composite-video source 

with RCA connectors to the CVBS IN port.

• Video is shared across the Garmin Marine Network, but it is 

not shared across the NMEA 2000 network.

Touchscreen Controls for a Connected Computer

NOTICE

To prevent corrosion due to moisture, you must use Garmin 

GPSMAP accessory cables when connecting the chartplotter to 

the computer. Using different cables voids your warranty.

You can connect the chartplotter to a computer to see the 

computer screen on the chartplotter touchscreen and control the 

computer using the chartplotter touchscreen. To see the 

computer screen, you must connect the computer to the HDMI 

IN port. To control the computer, you must connect the 

computer to the USB port.
The Garmin HDMI accessory cable (010-12390-20) is 4.5 m 

(15 ft) long. If you need a longer cable, you should use an active 

HDMI cable only. You need an HDMI coupler to connect the two 

HDMI cables.
The GarminUSB accessory cable (010-12390-10) is 4.5 m 

(15 ft) long. If you need a longer cable, you should use a USB 

hub or USB repeater extension cable only.
You must make all cable connections in a dry environment.
