Connecting two Northstar units for database transfer
You can connect a 6000i to most older Northstar navigators and then transfer one of the unit’s
waypoints and routes into the other. (Northstar 6000i units can share waypoints and routes between
each other using the N2 network). To connect the units, you must fabricate an interface cable and
terminate both its ends with the supplied 6-pin solder-cup style cable connectors (P/N KS672). This
data-transfer cable is not included. You must select a cable; use only shielded, twisted pair.
To connect a 6000i with a Northstar 952, 951, or 941, the older unit must be using software version
3.12 or higher, and a 10-pin connector (KS653) is required.
Assembling the cable
To assemble the cable :
1. Cut the cable to the desired length.
2. Slide the following parts onto each end of the cable, in the following order:
•
connector backshell
•
rubber-strain relief boot that fits inside the backshell
•
twist lock (also known as a quarter turn), ensuring that it’s facing in the correct
direction.
3. Trim and prepare the wires for soldering to the connector body.
