FROM GPS RECEIVER

The LCX-15CI/15CT can accept position information from any GPS receiver that transmits NMEA 0183 data. Use the wiring diagram shown above for NMEA input to the LCX-15CI/15CT.

See page 25 and 26 for NMEA and DGPS com port setup instructions.

Accessory Connections

The rear of this unit has three connectors: Power/Data, GPS, and Trans- ducer. The power cable connects to the Power/Data connector, the cable from the GPS module goes to the GPS connector, and the transducer plugs into the Transducer connector.

Speed/Temperature Connections

This unit can use a speed sensor in addition to up to three temperature sensors.

All transom-mount “Skimmer” transducers have a temperature sensor built into them. To add another temperature sensor besides the one in the transducer requires a MY-4X “Y” adapter cable and a TS-2X temperature sensor. The transducer plugs into one end of the MY-4X, the TS-2X tem- perature sensor plugs into another, and the last end plugs into the SO- NAR port. The TS-2X temperature sensor has an extra connector for a TS-3X temperature sensor. This lets you have three temperature sen- sors, if desired.

Note: Do not combine the temperature sensors in any order other than shown on the next page. For example, do not use two TS-3X temperature sensors in place of one TS-2X and one TS-3X sensors. Each sensor is programmed to work only on the channel it’s designed for.
