NMEA Cable Connections
NMEA is a standard communications format for marine electronic equipment. For example, an autopilot can connect to the NMEA inter- face on the IntelliMap 502C and receive positioning information. The IntelliMap 502C can exchange information with any device that trans- mits or receives NMEA 0183 data, however, a communications cable is not available for the unit at press time.
If you need to create a NMEA 0183 connection, consult customer serv- ice. Service contact information is located in the back of this manual.
See the diagram on the preceding page for general wiring connections. Read your other product’s owner’s manual for more wiring information.
