-Any accessories such as the NMEA output cable should be routed before installing the NS 10.

MOUNTING THE RECEIVER

Deck Mount

Follow the instructions below if you are deck mounting the receiver: (Figure 3)

1.Once you have located a mounting position that affords maximum satellite visibility to the receiver, make sure you can gain sufficient access to the lower side of the deck to insert the mounting bolt and tighten it. The maximum thickness of the mounting surface should not exceed 3/8”.

2.Mark the mounting point with a pencil and remove the receiver.

3.Using a 1” hole saw or wood bit, drill a hole at the marked point.

4.Insert the receiver cable through the 1” rubber gasket, then the hole.

5.Position the receiver over the hole and hold it in place.

6.Insert the 1’-14 mounting bolt over the cable end from the bottom side of the deck and screw it into the receiver base.

7.You may turn the receiver to tighten fully.

8.Connect the extension cable to the receiver cable and route to the NS 10.

Note: If the mounting surface is rough, or irregular, use silicone sealant to ensure a water tight joint.

4” Stem Mount

Follow the instructions below if you are stem mounting the receiver: (Figure 4)

1.Once you have determined a location which affords maximum satellite visibility to the receiver, mark the location with a pen or pencil.

2.If access to the lower side of the mounting surface is possible, you may choose to route the receiver cable through the surface. If access is not possible or desirable, a ¼” ABS spacer is provided to allow routing of the cable to the side of the stern mount. (Figure 5)

3.Using the stem mount as a template, mark the three mounting holes on the mounting surface.

4.Remove the stem mount and drill a 1/8” hole at each of the three marked points.

5.If you have decided to route the cable through the

mounting surface, drill a fourth hole at the center point of the three mounting holes, ½” diameter, and insert

the cable through the gasket, and then the hole.
