Installation Instructions
Mounting Considerations
WARNING
See the Important Safety and Product Information guide in the
product box for product warnings and other important
information.
You can mount the camera upside-down or sideways. You can
reverse the camera image to use in rearview mode. See your
chartplotter owner's manual for instructions.
NOTE: You must update your chartplotter software to setup and
view the camera feed on your chartplotter.
• You must mount the camera in a location where it is not
submerged, does not present a hazard in doorways or
walkways, and cannot be damaged by docks, pilings, or other
pieces of equipment.
• You should mount the camera in a location strong enough to
support the weight of the device and where you can remove
the camera.
• You should mount the camera so the LED is visible and the
cables can be connected easily.
• To avoid interference with a magnetic compass, do not
mount the camera closer to a compass than the compass-
safe distance value listed in the product specifications.
• You should test the camera in the selected location before
you permanently mount the camera.
• You can use the Garmin® Power Module to help make the
installation easier. The Power Module uses a single camera
cable instead of separate power and ethernet cables. This is
especially beneficial when the camera is located far away
from other electronics, such as near the bow or on a mast.
