After all the wiring is complete, the cables are attached on the backside of the GPSMAP 3005C MFD. If the MFD is not being networked, 

firmly affix the weather cap over the open connector to limit corrosion of the contacts. The connection ports are labeled on the back of the 

MFD.

1.  Align the notch and locking ring tab on the black Power/Data cable with the black 

POWER/NMEA port on the back of the unit. Carefully 

press the cable in until it is firmly seated. 

2.  When the cable is seated, turn the locking ring clockwise until it stops.
3.  If networking the MFD with the Garmin Marine Network, insert the RJ-45 connector into the 

NETWORK port on the back of the unit and 

screw the locking ring in clockwise until it is firmly seated.

With power applied to the circuit, test the installation by pressing the POWER key on the front of the unit. See the GPSMAP 3005C Owner’s 

Manual for instructions on initializing the receiver.
