Mounting the GPSMAP 180 Unit
The GPSMAP 180s water-resistant case is suitable for mounting in exposed
locations or at the nav station. The unit comes with a mounting bracket and a
gimbal mount to allow surface or overhead mounting. When choosing a location
for the display unit, make sure you consider the following conditions:
There should be at least a 3 (7.5 cm) clearance behind the case to allow connection of
the antenna and power/data cables.
The unit should not be mounted where it is exposed to excessive temperatures for
extended periods (see page 71).
 You should provide adequate clearance for the Micro G-chart cartridge to slide out com-
pletely.
The mounting surface should be heavy enough to support the unit and protect it from
excessive vibration and shock.
To surface mount the GPSMAP unit:
1. Place the gimbal mount in the desired location.
2. Mark and drill the four mounting holes for the fastener you are using.
3. Fasten the gimbal mount to the surface using the appropriate fasteners.
4. Insert the GPSMAP 180 into the gimbal mount. The mount is designed for a tight fit to
provide additional support when swiveling the unit.
5. Screw the two mounting knobs through the gimbal mount and into the mounting bracket.
6. Connect the power/data and antenna cables to the back of the unit, making sure the lock-
ing rings are tightened on both connectors.
NOTE: The mounting bracket can be rotated 360°, allowing the GPSMAP 180 to
be mounted on a vertical surface or overhead.
