Weather Overlay
The weather overlay superimposes weather and weather-
related information on the Navigation chart, the Fishing
chart, and the Perspective 3D chart view. The Navigation
chart and the Fishing chart can show weather radar,
height of cloud tops, lightning, weather buoys, county
warnings, and hurricane warnings. The Perspective 3D
chart view can show weather radar.
Weather overlay settings configured for use on one chart
are not applied to another chart. The weather overlay
settings for each chart must be configured separately.
NOTE:
The Fishing chart is available with premium charts,
in some areas.

Compatible devices include video devices connected to
the ports on the chartplotter or to the Garmin Marine
Network, as well as supported network (IP-based) video
cameras, encoders, and thermal cameras.

Networked Video Devices
NOTICE
A Garmin Power over Ethernet (PoE) Isolation Coupler
(P/N 010-10580-10) must be used when connecting
Ethernet devices, such as FLIR
®
cameras, to a Garmin
Marine Network. Connecting an Ethernet device directly
to a Garmin Marine Network chartplotter damages the
Garmin chartplotter and may damage the Ethernet device.
Before you can view and control video devices such as
IP cameras, encoders, and thermal cameras using your
chartplotter, you must have a compatible video device
connected to your chartplotter, and you must have a
marine network cable Power over Ethernet (PoE) isolation
coupler. Go to
for a list of compatible devices
or to purchase a PoE Isolation Coupler.
You can connect multiple supported video cameras and
up to two video encoders to the Garmin Marine Network.
You can select and view up to four video sources at
once. Chartplotters with multiple composite built-in video
inputs can display a single built-in video input only. When
the cameras are connected, the network detects them
automatically and displays them in the source list.
