Figure 7—NMEA 2000 Connector Face Views
Connecting Both NMEA 2000 and NMEA 0183 Interfaces
Attention:
Connecting power through both the NMEA 2000 interface and NMEA
0183 interface is PROHIBITED and will nullify the warranty. Connecting the power
through both connectors could potentially create a ground loop, which would render
one or both networks inoperative.
Note:
Jeppesen Marine does not provide technical support for the NMEA 2000
interface as of this printing.
The SSHS can be simultaneously connected to both an NMEA 2000 network and an NMEA
0183 network providing that power is supplied only through the NMEA 2000 connector and not
through the NMEA 0183 connector.
Follow the steps for connecting to an NMEA 2000 network and an NMEA 0183 network as
listed on the previous pages, making sure to supply power ONLY through the NMEA 2000
network.
Checking Connections
Once the NMEA 2000 and / or NMEA 0183 connections to the Nobeltec SSHS have been
completed, verify that the heading information is being properly transmitted by observing an
appropriate display. (See
Page 19 – Troubleshooting
).
