Installation Instructions 
This instruction sheet tells how to install your LGC-3000 or LGC-Baja 
GPS module and connect it to a NMEA 2000
®
 network using 
LowranceNET
™ network components. 
The LGC-Baja is a ruggedized module designed to withstand the rigors of off-
road automobile racing. It works just like the LGC-3000, and for simplicity 
we will only refer to the LGC-3000 in the rest of this instruction sheet. 
The LGC-3000 GPS module, like the other Lowrance Electronic Probe 
(EP) sensors, is designed only for use with a NMEA 2000 Network. It 
MUST be connected to a NMEA 2000 network or it WILL NOT function. 
CAUTION: 
Installing LowranceNET NMEA 2000 devices is significantly 
different
 from installing earlier Lowrance components without 
NMEA 2000 features. You should read all of the installation in-
structions before proceeding. You should decide where to install 
all components before drilling any holes in your vessel or vehicle. 
Some sonar or GPS display units may require: 1. a software upgrade to 
display NMEA 2000 data correctly; and 2. a manual addendum describ-
ing how to operate the sensor. You can download these free and get ad-
ditional information on the NMEA 2000
®
 compatible LowranceNET
™ 
system at our web site, www.lowrance.com. 
All Lowrance NMEA 2000 capable devices are either NMEA 2000 certi-
fied or certification is pending. See our web site for the latest product 
status information.
