Marine Camera Integration Guide

Integrating FLIR® and Axis® network cameras with your Garmin
marine electronics provides superior video surveillance for your
boat. You can view video on every chartplotter screen on your
boat, or view multiple video streams on one chartplotter
combination screen. You can use touchscreen gestures to
control your camera from your chartplotter, such as pinching to
zoom, and dragging to pan and tilt the camera. You can
customize your chartplotter to store settings with on-screen
presets for each camera, such as camera position and zoom
data.

A Garmin Power over Ethernet (PoE) Isolation Coupler (GPN
010-10580-10) must be used to connect standard Ethernet
equipment to a Garmin Marine Network. Such equipment
includes a network camera, network switch, video encoder, or

Multiple Network Camera Connection

PoE injector. A shielded cable, such as a CAT 5e F/FTP, offers
the best protection for your equipment. Connecting a PoE
device directly to a Garmin Marine Network chartplotter
damages the Garmin chartplotter and may damage the PoE
device.

You can connect multiple supported video cameras and up to
two video encoders (models with four channels or fewer) to the
Garmin Marine Network.

You can set up combination screens to view multiple videos at
once. In devices with multiple composite video inputs, only a
single video function within a combination screen can use a
built-in video input. Some chartplotters, including the GPSMAP
8015 series and 8500 series, support quad view, which allows
four built-in videos to be viewed within a single video function.

®

NOTE: When you connect multiple video cameras to the Garmin
Marine Network, you can insert a PoE isolation coupler in the
path to create a single connection from a network switch to your
Garmin electronics.

FLIR Cameras

FLIR marine cameras provide thermal imagery, and can provide
an optional lowlight camera output. When you connect a FLIR
camera to your compatible chartplotter, the network detects the
camera automatically and displays it in the source list. You do
not need to pre-configure the camera before installation.

Garmin GPSMAP 7400, 7600, and 8000 series chartplotters are
compatible with FLIR M and MD series cameras.

*The blue ports on the multi-port PoE switch are non-powered ports. The red ports are powered ports.
**You should use a Garmin Marine Network waterproof connection on at least one side of the PoE isolation coupler. You can use a

waterproof connection on both sides by crimping a new RJ-45 connector on one of the Garmin cables to connect to standard
Ethernet equipment. For networks without a Garmin Marine Network waterproof connection, point the PoE isolation coupler down, or
horizontal with a drip loop to avoid water retention around the connector.

FLIR Camera Settings

Using the chartplotter, you can change the polarity, color
scheme, and scene setting (gain control) displayed on your FLIR
camera. You can switch between a thermal and visible camera
view on your chartplotter screen.

NOTE: You must have a dual-payload M-series FLIR camera
connected to your chartplotter network to switch between views.
FLIR MD-series cameras provide thermal views only.

From the video screen, select Menu.

Change Colors: Sets the color scheme of the infrared image.
Change Scene: Sets the camera to a night, night docking, day,

or man overboard view.

Polarity: Sets the colors or shades that represent hot and cold

in the infrared image.

FLIR Camera to GMS™ 10 Network Port Expander Connection

Associating a detected FLIR camera and a video input device
creates a connection between the camera and the device. The
video input device can be a built-in connection on a chartplotter
or an Axis video encoder.

You must create an association between a FLIR camera and a
chartplotter. A prompt appears the first time you select a FLIR
camera as the video source. When >> appears next to the
device name, you are prompted to form an association.

From the Video Source menu, select your device.
>> disappears from the device name.

Changing the Associated Video Input Device for a FLIR Camera

You can change the video association between the FLIR
camera and its video input device after the initial association.

From the video screen, select your connected FLIR camera.

Dual Payload FLIR Models

Some FLIR camera models output multiple video streams. On
these dual payload models, composite video cables are marked
V/IR and IR-only from the camera. The video stream from the
V/IR cable can be switched between daylight video and infrared
