[. . . ] Caution: International Regulations for Preventing Collisions at Sea mandate that when radar is on a vessel, the radar must be used at all times, regardless of weather conditions or visibility. Numerous court decisions have not only ruled the radar must be used, but that the radar operator must be knowledgeable in all operational aspects of radar performance or otherwise face a greater risk of liability if an accident occurs. WARNING: High Voltage Hazard Dangerously high voltages are present within the radar scanner unit. Some capacitors may take several minutes to discharge, even after switching off the radar. [. . . ] The blue and green wires (Com port 2) can be used to exchange GPS position data with any NMEA 0183-compatible device. Connect the blue (TX) transmit wire to the receive (RX) wire from the NMEA 0183 device. Now connect the green (RX) receive wire to the transmit (TX) wire from the NMEA 0183 device. There is no ground wire, so the NMEA 0183 device MUST be grounded to the same source as the display unit. 3 If you are powering a NMEA 2000 network or an LGC-3000 GPS antenna, you must connect the NMEA 2000 power cable. Attach the NMEA 2000 red wire (+) to an accessory switch that is connected to the same 12-volt power source as the display unit power cable red wire (+). NMEA/COMMS port Plug the RIM 300 Data Cable into the NMEA/COMMS port on the back of the radar processor 4. Plug the RIM 300 radar data cable into the NMEA/COMMS port on the radar processor box. After all wires and cables have been connected and all unused wires insulated, insert the RIM 300 cable plug in the power/data receptacle on the back of your display unit. 3 Notes 4 Notes 5 FCC Compliance This device complies with Part 15 of the U.
