GNT™ 10 Installation
Instructions
The GNT 10 extends the range of Garmin
®
 wireless
marine devices, such as a remote control or wireless
mouse, and adds additional capabilities to more
feature-rich wireless devices, such as the quatix™
watch. The GNT 10 connects to an existing NMEA
2000
®
 network on your boat. Additional GNT 10
devices can be installed on your NMEA 2000
network to provide a larger coverage area on your
boat.
Important Safety Information
 CAUTION
Always wear safety goggles, ear protection, and a
dust mask when drilling, cutting, or sanding.
NOTICE
When drilling or cutting, always check what is on the
opposite side of the surface.

Mounting Considerations
NOTICE
This device should be mounted in a location that is
not exposed to extreme temperatures or conditions.
The temperature range for this device is listed in the
product specifications. Extended exposure to
temperatures exceeding the specified temperature
range, in storage or operating conditions, may cause
device failure. Extreme-temperature-induced
damage and related consequences are not covered
by the warranty.
When selecting a mounting location, observe these
considerations.
• Metal and other dense materials may inhibit
communication between this device and Garmin
wireless marine devices. The intended mounting
location must be tested to make sure this device
reliably communicates with your wireless devices
everywhere you plan to use them on the boat.
• You can use the included screws to mount the
device on your boat. If the included screws are
not appropriate for the mounting surface, suitable
hardware must be purchased separately.
Mounting the Device
1
Determine the mounting location.
2
Using the device as a template, mark the two
pilot hole locations on the mounting surface.
3
Using a 
1
/
8
 in. (3 mm) bit, drill the pilot holes.
4
Use the included screws to attach the device to
the mounting surface.
NMEA 2000 Connection
Considerations
• This device connects to an existing NMEA 2000
network on your boat.
• If you are unfamiliar with NMEA 2000, you
should read the “NMEA 2000 Network
Fundamentals” chapter of the Technical
Reference for NMEA 2000 Products, available on
the Garmin web site. Click the “Manuals” link on
the product page for your device at 
www.garmin.com.
• If the cable connected to the device is not long
enough to reach your NMEA 2000 network, an
extension of up to 16.5 ft. (5 m) can be used,
according to the NMEA 2000 guidelines.

About the Status LED
The device has a two-color LED that you can use to
troubleshoot problems, if necessary. The LED is
labeled STATUS on the device.
Color State
Status
Green Flashing
The device is working correctly.
Solid
The device software is being updated
Red
Flashing
slowly
The device is starting up. If the LED
does not change to flashing green
after a short time, the device may not
be not working correctly. A software
update using a Garmin chartplotter
connected to the same NMEA 2000
network may correct the problem.
Flashing
quickly
The device is not receiving NMEA
2000 data. The NMEA 2000 network
should be checked for proper
installation and operation.
Auto MOB
When paired with a Garmin quatix watch, this device
is capable of triggering an automatic man overboard
(MOB) event.
A Garmin quatix watch must be paired with this
device for the auto MOB feature to work properly.
The owner's manual provided with your watch
contains detailed instructions on pairing and auto
MOB setup.
After auto MOB is enabled on a paired watch, this
device monitors the connection with the watch.
When the connection to the watch is lost for ten
seconds, this device triggers a system-wide MOB
event. During an MOB event, an MOB waypoint and
alert appear on all connected Garmin chartplotters.
The owner's manual provided with your Garmin
chartplotter contains additional information on MOB
features and actions.
