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.
1
Using the device as a template, mark the two pilot hole
2
locations on the mounting surface.
Using a 1/8 in. (3 mm) bit, drill the pilot holes.
3
Use the included screws to attach the device to the mounting
4
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.

Status LED
The device has a two-color LED that you can use to
troubleshoot problems, if necessary. The LED is labeled
STATUS on the device.
Color State Status
Green Flashing The device is working correctly.
Green Solid The device software is being updated.
Red Flashing
slowly
Red Flashing
quickly
The device is starting up. If the LED does not
change to flashing green after a short time,
the device may not be not working correctly.
A software update using a Garmin
chartplotter connected to the same NMEA
2000 network may correct the problem.
The device is not receiving NMEA 2000 data.
The NMEA 2000 network should be checked
for proper installation and operation.
