How all GARMIN devices talk to each other. Installing NMEA 2000

[@Gatto1227]

Best explanation I've seen🙏👏

[@jamesmanchester7276]

Great description! You taught me something on placing the power t-block in the middle.

[@teammahaldotcom4264]

Glad I could help.

[@mikencrew8885]

Thank you so much! This is the best video and illustration I can find how to hook this up and how it works. Greatly appreciate it

[@teammahaldotcom4264]

Glad I was able to help. More boating videos to come.

[@hemimotorz]

Good video! Thanks for the explanation of the T block and termination needed. This reminds of the old BNC connectors, I've used WAY back in the date for computer networking.

[@teammahaldotcom4264]

You’re welcome

[@rexrunner]

Also ray marine stng connects are also nmea. Just need an adapter Same ol same. Awesome video. The t block harness you made is called a backbone

Great video! 🤩 So informative without complicated talk around it. I’m a neewbe and have a garmin echomap 72cv, and I bought this 6 years ago without any knowledge about nmea 2k. Next year I change out our old 50hp Johnson 2 stroke with a brand new Honda BF60, and this have nmea 2k and with that connected with the Garmin I got hours, fuel consumption, temps etc. displayed on the Garmin. The org tachometer following the motor does not provide hours, and I find that important to follow the instruction how to run in a new motor (or what you called it nativ english) ie not rev to much the first 20 hours, and oilchange etc. Thank you for learn me that I need a extra antenna to make the garmin know, at all condition, the direction of the boat👍 What do you concider the next most important thing to connect? I think about a VHF radio, to make it more secure if anything bad happens especial now that my kids is going to use the boat alone. What do you see as main benefit of networking the vhf? Is it the gps that gets more accurat? Or is it much cheaper to get a ais transponer or ais reciever (or both)? Or is whf just obsolete nostalgy, now that we have cell phones? Greeting from Oslo Norway 😀

Agree

[@stevebodine1129]

Thank you

[@teammahaldotcom4264]

You're welcome

[@leesmith9942]

So with what you're saying is that the only cable my plotter needs to power up and work. ? Besides the one that goes to it for the transducer.

[@marvinbordelon5278]

Thank you sir

[@teammahaldotcom4264]

You’re welcome

[@brianbrown9102]

Great video. I have a dumb question but want to ask anyways. The power to the t block, that isn't providing power to your depth finder is it? Does the depth finder needs its own isolated power cable or does the power into the t block, power everything connected to it?

[@teammahaldotcom4264]

No. The depth finder gets its own power through the chart plotter. Apologies for the late response

[@SavageVoyageur]

Good video, thanks. I’m putting in a steady cast and Garmin 73sv into my old town kayak in the morning.

[@kevinlastowka4452]

Big Al..question...the yellow power cord had a bare wire next to the black Is that just another ground that needs to be connected?

[@teammahaldotcom4264]

Yes it is.

[@elevatedvybz6014]

Great video bro y u didn't show how u did the wiring

[@teammahaldotcom4264]

🤣🤣🤣 I’ll consider that on my next video

[@bakervinci163]

I think you connect two units with just an rj-45 connector, without all the neama t blocks

[@billdomb]

If i have the screen connected via NMEA backbone, does it need its own power supply?

[@teammahaldotcom4264]

I’m not sure, I would have to see the entire setup. The manual will instruct you on what needed. Sorry I couldn’t help.

[@billdomb]

@@teammahaldotcom4264 Believe it or not, Garmin answered the question. No, haveta also use a separate power supply.

[@DOUBLEDEFENSE]

18ft is 5.4 meters good video otherwise

[@emanuelcamelo6042]
