Connecting the SSHS
You have a choice of connecting the SSHS to an NMEA 0183 interface, NMEA 2000 interface,
or connecting to both interfaces simultaneously.
Attention:
At the time of this printing, Jeppesen Marine does not support connection
to an NMEA 2000 interface. While this manual describes how to make this
connection, you will not be able to receive technical support for this interface.

Connecting to an NMEA 0183 Interface
The SSHS connects to an NMEA 0183 interface through an eight pin male connector using
the 10-meter NMEA 0183 Cable that came in your product box. Connect the female end of the
NMEA 0183 cable to the male connector on the SSHS (note the key on the connectors in
Figure 6
).

Ensure that the cable is connected securely and that the collar on the cable connector is firmly
tightened. Connect the other end of the cable, which consists of individual wires using
recommended practices for installing NMEA 0183 products.
