Garmin GNT 10 User Manual

GNT™ 10 Installation Instructions

TA-2013/192

The GNT 10 connects to an existing NMEA 2000® network on your boat, and provides the ability to transmit network data over the wireless ANT network to compatible Garmin® products, such as the quatix® series marine smartwatches. The Connect IQ app is required to view data from the GNT 10. Download the app from apps.garmin.com or the app store on your smartphone.

Additional GNT 10 devices can be installed on your NMEA 2000 network to provide a larger coverage area on your boat.

Important Safety Information

WARNING

See the Important Safety and Product Information guide in the product box for product warnings and other important information.

CAUTION

Always wear safety goggles, ear protection, and a dust mask when drilling, cutting, or sanding.

NOTICE

When drilling or cutting, always check what is on the opposite side of the surface.

Mounting Considerations

NOTICE

This device should be mounted in a location that is not exposed to extreme temperatures or conditions. The temperature range for this device is listed in the product specifications. Extended exposure to temperatures exceeding the specified temperature range, in storage or operating conditions, may cause device failure. Extreme-temperature-induced damage and related consequences are not covered by the warranty.

When selecting a mounting location, observe these considerations.

• Metal and other dense materials may inhibit communication between this device and Garmin wireless marine devices. The intended mounting location must be tested to make sure this device reliably communicates with your wireless devices everywhere you plan to use them on the boat.

• You can use the included screws to mount the device on your boat. If the included screws are not appropriate for the mounting surface, suitable hardware must be purchased separately.

Mounting the Device

Determine the mounting location.

Using the device as a template, mark the two pilot hole

locations on the mounting surface. Using a 1/8 in. (3 mm) bit, drill the pilot holes.

Use the included screws to attach the device to the mounting

surface.

NMEA 2000 Connection Considerations

• This device connects to an existing NMEA 2000 network on your boat.

™

• If you are unfamiliar with NMEA 2000, you should read the “NMEA 2000 Network Fundamentals” chapter of the Technical Reference for NMEA 2000 Products, available on the Garmin web site. Click the “Manuals” link on the product page for your device at www.garmin.com.

• If the cable connected to the device is not long enough to reach your NMEA 2000 network, an extension of up to 16.5 ft. (5 m) can be used, according to the NMEA 2000 guidelines.
