Under-deck-mounting the GPS 17x Antenna
The GPS 17x can be mounted under a fiberglass surface with the included adhesive pads. The GPS 17x will not acquire satellite signals through
metal—you can only use the under-deck mount under a fiberglass surface.

Wiring and Cables
The GPSMAP 3000 series chartplotter comes with a Power/data cable, and a GPS 17x cable. Additionally, the GPSMAP 3006, 3206, 3010, and
3210 chartplotters come with a 17-pin Marine Video cable. Optional Garmin Marine Network components use specialized Garmin Network
cables. Depending on the installation, it may be necessary to drill holes to route the connector end of these cables.
Garmin rubber grommets are provided to cover these holes for a finished look.
You may not need the grommets in some installations. The grommets do NOT create a
waterproof seal. Apply a marine sealant around the grommet and cable after installation.
Be sure to test the system before installing and sealing the grommets. Purchase additional
grommets from your Garmin dealer or directly from Garmin at
.
