Connecting to a GPS receiver
If you connect the radio to a GPS receiver, the radio can automatically transmit your current
position during an automated distress call or during a normal DSC call.
Your radio supports a standard NMEA0183 input from a GPS receiver. Follow the steps
below to connect your radio to your GPS receiver:
1. Connect the BARE wire of the included accessory cable to the GROUND WIRE on your
GPS receiver.
2. Connect the GREEN wire of the included accessory cable to the GPS DATA OUTPUT
WIRE on your GPS receiver. Below is a table of common GPS receivers and the proper
