NOTICE
To prevent corrosion due to moisture, you must use Garmin
GPSMAP accessory cables when connecting the chartplotter to
the computer. Using different cables voids your warranty.
You can connect the chartplotter to a computer to see the
computer screen and to control the computer using the
chartplotter touchscreen. To see the computer screen, you must
connect the computer to the HDMI IN port. To control the
computer using the chartplotter touchscreen, you must connect
the computer to the USB port.
The Garmin
GPSMAP
HDMI accessory cable is 4.5 m (15 ft)
long. If you need a longer cable, you should use an active HDMI
cable only. You need an HDMI coupler to connect the two HDMI
cables. You must make all cable connections in a dry
environment.
The
Garmin GPSMAP USB accessory cable is 4.5 m (15 ft)
long. If you need a longer cable, you should use a USB hub or

connections in a dry environment.
