Furuno 1712 NMEA connection

8
NMEA connection
You will need an NMEA cable to connect a video sounder or a navigat or. Connect it to the NMEA
connector at the rear of the radar display unit as shown below.
MJ-A6SPF0012-050/100
(option of external equipment)
To navigator or NMEA
output of video sounder
Figure 14 Navigator connection
To connect both a video sounder and a navigator, use N MEA cable
MJ-A6SPF0003-050/MJ-A6SPF0009-100 (option) and solder them as shown below.

Note 1: Tape unused cables to prevent short.
Note 2: Do not use a cross wiring-type N MEA cable which has connectors at both ends (for example,
MJ-A6SPF0012-050). Miswiri ng can result when the one of the connectors is removed to
make the connection.
To connect equipment whose NMEA output uses other than a FURUNO 6 pin NMEA connector, use
NMEA cable type MJ-A6SPF0003-050/MJ-A6SPF 0009-100 to make the connection.
