INTRODUCTION

INTRODUCTION

The GPSMAP 3206/3210 Multi-Function Display (MFD) and GPS 17 must be properly installed according to the following instructions for the best possible performance. To complete the installation, you need the appropriate fasteners, tools, and mounts listed in each section. These items are available at most marine dealers.Always wear safety goggles, ear protection, and a dust mask when drilling, cutting, or sanding.

When drilling or cutting, always check first to see what is on the opposite side of the surface. Mount the GPSMAP 3206/3210 in a location that provides a clear, glare-free view of the display and easy operation of the controls. If you experience difficulty installing the unit, contact

Garmin Product Support or seek the assistance of a professional installer.

Flush Mount

To flush mount the GPSMAP 3206/3210:

1.Trim the Flush Mount Template, and tape it in the location you want.

2.Using the center punch, indent the center of each mounting hole location.

3.Using a 1/8" (3 mm) drill bit, drill the four mounting holes.

4.Using a 3/8" (6 mm) drill bit, drill a hole to begin cutting the mounting surface.

5.Using the jig saw, cut the mounting surface along the inside of the dashed line indicated on the template. Use a file and sandpaper to refine the size of the hole. Be very careful when cutting this hole. There is only a small amount of clearance between the case molding and the mounting holes.

6.Install the four mounting studs into the unit by screwing the shorter, threaded section into the back of the unit. Use a 1/16" (2 mm) Allen wrench to tighten the mounting studs until the stop contacts the case. Be careful not to overtighten, because this may damage the mounting stud! The studs have a reusable thread-locking patch pre-applied from the factory.

7.Place the unit into the cut-out of the mounting surface.

8.Place washers over the mounting studs, then thread on one hex nut per mounting stud. Tighten all four until the unit is snug

against the mounting surface. Install and tighten the second hex nut set on all four mounting studs to lock the first set in place.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

Installing the GPS 17

The GPS 17 can be flush mounted or installed on any standard 1" O.D. (Outer Dimension), 14 threads-per-inch marine mount. When mounting the GPS 17, the cable can be run externally, through the mounting panel, or through the center of the marine mount.

The GPS 17 connects to the 18-pin Power/Data cable on the GPSMAP3206/3210 and provides the GPS/WAAS signal for the unit. If two or more GPSMAP 3205/3206/3210 units are installed and networked, only one GPS 17 needs to be installed.

To ensure the best reception, mount the GPS 17 in a location that has a clear, unobstructed view of the sky in all directions.Avoid mounting the GPS 17 where it is shaded by the boat’s superstructure, a radome antenna, or mast. Sailboat users should avoid mounting the unit high on the mast to prevent inaccurate speed readings caused by excessive heeling. The unit provides more stable readings if it is located nearer to water level. Mount the GPS 17 at least 3 ft away from

(preferably above) the path of any radar beam or a VHFradio antenna.

Temporarily secure the unit in the preferred mounting location, and test for correct operation. With correct operation verified, permanently mount the unit. If interference with other electronics is experienced, try a different location.

NOTE: Never paint the GPS 17 or clean it with harsh solvents.

1.Cut out the Flush Mount Drilling Template provided on page 15, and tape it on the selected mounting location.

2.Mark the center of each mounting hole by tapping the end of a center punch or pointed object with a hammer. If the cable is going to be installed through the mounting panel, mark the center of the additional hole.

3.Drill the holes using the appropriate drill bits.

4.Align the GPS 17 over the mounting holes, and fasten it using M4 screws. The mounting threads in the GPS 17 are 8.10 mm deep. Do not use screws that thread into the GPS 17 deeper than 8 mm, or the case may be damaged.

The GPS 17 can be installed with the coax through the panel

 

or on the outside of the unit. If the coax is run through the

panel, seal the outside exit area with marine sealant.
