AIS 600 Wiring Layout: AIS 600 Connected to a Garmin Chartplotter through
NMEA 0183
Notes:
* The AIS 600 must be connected to the included GA 30 GPS antenna. The AIS 600 does not share GPS information with any other devices
on the boat. If you have a chartplotter on your boat, it must receive GPS information from a separate antenna, such as a GPS 17x.
** The AIS 600 does not need to be installed alongside a VHF radio, but they can share the same VHF antenna if they are both installed on
your boat.
*** The listed wire colors are for the NMEA 0183 Port 1 input on a Garmin GPSMAP 4000/5000/6000/7000 series chartplotter. Refer to the
installation instructions provided with your Garmin chartplotter if you want to wire the AIS 600 to a different model of Garmin chartplotter or to
a different NMEA 0183 port on a GPSMAP 4000/5000/6000/7000 series chartplotter.
If you are connecting the AIS 600 to a non-garmin chartplotter, see
