For complete instructions on setting up a new NMEA 2000 network or 

expanding an existing one, see the other document packed with your 
LGC-3000 GPS module, "Setup and Installation of NMEA 2000 Net-
works, General Information," part number 988-0154-173. If that docu-

ment is missing, it can be downloaded free from the Lowrance web site. 

The GPS module can be mounted on any flat surface, provided there is 

access behind the mounting surface for the screws. The optional mag-

net allows the module to be easily used on cars or off-road vehicles. The 

optional pole mount adapter lets you mount the antenna on a pole or 

swivel mount that uses standard marine 1"-14 threads. 

Surface Mount 
The GPS module can be easily installed on any flat surface that is at 

least 3-1/2" (90 mm) wide. Be sure that a clear, unobstructed view of 

the sky is available at the selected location. GPS signals travel "line-of-

sight" at very high frequencies, so nearly anything blocking the an-

tenna can stop the unit from finding a satellite. 
Caution: 

In an automobile, you may achieve good reception by simply placing the 

external antenna on the top of the dash, at the base of the windshield. A 

piece of the rubber non-skid shelf liner material available in recrea-

tional vehicle supply stores will help hold the antenna in place. This 

may not work well if you have a cab-over design pickup truck camper or 

motor home. If dashboard reception is poor, simply relocate the antenna 

module elsewhere on the vehicle for a clearer view of the sky. 
Once you’ve determined the mounting location, use the template on the 

following page to drill the screw holes. The screws supplied with this 

unit are about 1-1/8" long (4 mm x 30 mm). Drill 3/16" (4.75 mm) holes 

for the mounting screws. 
If you need to route the cable through the mounting surface, drill a 7/8" 

(22 mm) hole for the cable's connector. The notch in the antenna hous-

ing allows the cable to pass through, if desired, instead of routing it 

down through the mounting surface. 
After drilling the holes, pass the O-ring over the cable and press it into 

the groove on the bottom of the antenna housing. (If you are using the 

housing notch to route the cable outside, you may need to cut a notch in
