Mounting the GPSMAP 8700 Black Box Device
NOTICE

If you are mounting the bracket on fiberglass with screws, it is recommended to use a countersink bit to drill a clearance counterbore through only the top gel-coat layer. This will help to avoid cracking in the gel-coat layer when the screws are tightened.

1. Using the bail-mount bracket 1 as a template, mark the pilot holes
   

2. Drill the pilot holes.

3. Using appropriate mounting screws (not included), secure the bail-mount bracket to the mounting surface.

4. Install the bail-mount knobs  2 on the sides of the device.

5. Place the device in the bail-mount bracket and tighten the bail-mount knobs.

Flush Mounting the Device
NOTICE
Be careful when cutting the hole to flush mount the device.
There is only a small amount of clearance between the case and the mounting holes, and cutting the hole too large could compromise the stability of the device after it is mounted.
The included template and hardware can be used to flush mount the device in your dashboard.

1. Trim the template, and make sure it fits in the location where you want to mount the device.

2. Secure the template to the mounting location.

3. Using a 14 mm (9/16 in.) drill bit, drill one or more of the holes inside the corners of the solid line on the template to prepare the mounting surface for cutting.

4. Using a jigsaw or a rotary tool, cut the mounting surface along the inside line on the template.

5. Place the device in the cutout to test the fit.

6. If necessary, use a file and sandpaper to refine the size of the cutout.

7. Use a pry tool, such as a flat piece of plastic or a screwdriver, to carefully pry up the corners of the trim caps, slide the pry tool to the center, and remove the trim caps.
   NOTICE
   Use a plastic pry tool when possible. Using a metal pry tool such as a screwdriver can damage the trim caps and the device.

8. After the device fits correctly in the cutout, ensure the mounting holes on the device line up with the larger 6 mm (1/4 in.) holes on the template.

9. If the mounting holes on the device do not line up, mark the new hole locations.

10. Select an option:
    • If you are using a nut plate, drill a 6 mm (1/4 in.) hole in the larger hole location.
    • If you are not using a nut plate, drill 3.2 mm (1/8 in.) holes in the larger hole locations.

11. Starting in one corner of the template, place a nut plate 1 over the larger hole 2 drilled in the previous step.
    If you are using a nut plate, the smaller hole 3 on the nut plate should line up with the smaller hole on the template.

12. If the smaller hole on the nut plate does not line up with the smaller hole on the template, mark the new hole location.

13. If you are using a nut plate, drill a 3.6 mm (9/64 in.) hole in the smaller hole location.

14. Repeat to verify placement of the remaining nut plates and holes on the template.

15. Remove the template from the mounting surface.

16. Starting in one corner of the mounting location, place a nut plate  4 on the back of the mounting surface, lining up the large and small holes.
    The raised portion of the nut plate should fit into the larger hole.
    

17. Secure the nut plates to the mounting surface by fastening the included M3 screws 5 through the smaller 3.6 mm(9/64 in.) holes.

18. Install the foam gasket 6 on the back of the device.
    The pieces of the foam gasket have adhesive on the back. Make sure you remove the protective liner before installing them on the device.

19. If you will not have access to the back of the device after you mount it, connect all necessary cables to the device before placing it into the cutout.
    NOTICE
    To prevent corrosion of the metal contacts, cover unused connectors with the attached weather caps.

20. Apply marine sealant between the mounting surface and the device to properly seal and prevent leakage behind the dashboard.

21. If you will have access to the back of the device, apply marine sealant around the cutout.

22. Place the device into the cutout.

23. Secure the device to the mounting surface using the included M4 screws 7.

24. Wipe away all excess marine sealant.

25. Install the trim caps by snapping them in place around the edges of the device.

Connection Considerations

Connecting the Wiring Harness to Power
WARNING
When connecting the power cable, do not remove the in-line fuse holder. To prevent the possibility of injury or product damage caused by fire or overheating, the appropriate fuse must be in place as indicated in the product specifications. In addition, connecting the power cable without the appropriate fuse in place voids the product warranty.

1. Route the wiring harness to the power source and to the device.
2. Connect the red wire to the positive (+) battery terminal, and connect the black wire to the negative (-) battery terminal.
3. If necessary, install the locking ring and O-ring on the end of the wiring harness.
4. Insert the cable into the POWER connector on the back of the device, pushing firmly.
5. Turn the locking ring clockwise to attach the cable to the device.

Additional Grounding Consideration
This device should not need additional chassis grounding in most installation situations. If you experience interference, the grounding screw on the housing can be used to connect the device to the water ground of the boat to help avoid the interference.
Garmin Marine Network Considerations
NOTICE
A Garmin Marine Network PoE Isolation Coupler (010-10580-10) must be used when connecting any third-party device, such as a FLIR®  camera, to a Garmin Marine Network. Connecting a Power over Ethernet (PoE) device directly to a Garmin Marine Network chartplotter damages the Garmin chartplotter and may damage the PoE device. Connecting any third-party device directly to a Garmin Marine Network chartplotter will cause abnormal behavior on the Garmin devices, including the devices not properly turning off or the software becoming inoperable.
This device can connect to additional Garmin Marine Network devices to share data such as radar, sonar, and detailed mapping. When connecting Garmin Marine Network devices to this device, observe these considerations.

• All devices connected to the Garmin Marine Network must be connected to the same ground. If multiple power sources are used for Garmin Marine Network devices, you must tie all ground connections from all power supplies together using a low resistance connection or tie them to a common ground bus bar, if available.

• A Garmin Marine Network cable must be used for all Garmin Marine Network connections.
  • Third-party CAT5 cable and RJ45 connectors must not be used for Garmin Marine Network connections.
  • Additional Garmin Marine Network cables and connectors are available from your Garmin dealer.

• The ETHERNET ports on the device each act as a network switch. Any compatible device can be connected to any ETHERNET port to share data with all devices on the boat connected by a Garmin Marine Network cable.

NMEA 2000 ® Considerations
NOTICE
If you are connecting to an existing NMEA 2000 network, identify the NMEA 2000 power cable. Only one NMEA 2000 power cable is required for the NMEA 2000 network to operate properly.
A NMEA 2000 Power Isolator (010-11580-00) should be used in installations where the existing NMEA 2000 network manufacturer is unknown.
If you are installing a NMEA 2000 power cable, you must connect it to the boat ignition switch or through another in-line switch. NMEA 2000 devices will drain your battery if the NMEA 2000 power cable is connected to the battery directly.
This device can connect to a NMEA 2000 network on your boat to share data from NMEA 2000 compatible devices such as a GPS antenna or a VHF radio. The included NMEA 2000 cables and connectors allow you to connect the device to your existing NMEA 2000 network. If you do not have an existing NMEA 2000 network you can create a basic one using cables from Garmin.
If you are unfamiliar with NMEA 2000, you should read the Technical Reference for NMEA 2000 Products at garmin.com/manuals/nmea_2000.
The port labeled NMEA 2000 is used to connect the device to a standard NMEA 2000 network.

NMEA 0183 Connection Considerations

• The chartplotter provides one Tx (transmit) port and one Rx (receive) port.
• Each port has 2 wires, labeled A and B according to the NMEA 0183 convention. The corresponding A and B wires of each internal port should be connected to the A (+) and B (-) wires of the NMEA 0183 device.
• You can connect one NMEA 0183 device to the Rx port to input data to this chartplotter, and you can connect up to three NMEA 0183 devices in parallel to the Tx port to receive data output by this chartplotter.
• See the NMEA 0183 device installation instructions to identify the transmit (Tx) and receive (Rx) wires.
• You must use 28 AWG, shielded, twisted-pair wiring for extended runs of wire. Solder all connections and seal them with heat-shrink tubing.
• Do not connect the NMEA 0183 data wires from this device to power ground.
• The power cable from the chartplotter and the NMEA 0183 devices must be connected to a common power ground.
• The internal NMEA 0183 ports and communication protocols are configured on the chartplotter. See the NMEA 0183 section of the chartplotter owner’s manual for more information.
• See the chartplotter owner’s manual for a list of the approved NMEA 0183 sentences that the chartplotter supports.

NMEA 0183 Device Connections
This diagram illustrates two-way connections for both sending and receiving data. You can also use this diagram for one-way communication. To receive information from a NMEA 0183 device, refer to items1,2,3,4, and 5 when connecting the Garmin device. To transmit information to a NMEA 0183 device, refer to items1,2,3,6 and 7 when connecting the Garmin device.

Lamp and Horn Connections
The device can be used with a lamp, a horn, or both, to sound or flash an alert when the chartplotter displays a message. This is optional, and the alarm wire is not necessary for the device to function normally. When connecting the device to a lamp or horn, observe these considerations.

• The alarm circuit switches to a low-voltage state when the alarm sounds.
• The maximum current is 1 A, and a relay is needed to limit the current from the chartplotter to 1 A.
• To manually toggle visual and audible alerts, you can install single-pole, single-throw switches.

Composite Video Considerations
This chartplotter allows video input from composite video sources using the port labeled CVBS IN. When connecting composite video, you should observe these considerations.

• The CVBS IN port uses a BNC connector. You can use a BNC to RCA adapter to connect a composite-video source with RCA connectors to the CVBS IN port.
• Video is shared across the Garmin Marine Network, but it is not shared across the NMEA 2000 network.
