The LGC-2000 GPS module contains a 12-parallel channel GPS receiver.
The LGC-2000 attaches directly to Lowrance products that display GPS
position information. It has a blue connector on the end of the cable.

The LGC-2000 requires 9 to 20 volts DC power. It draws power through
the unit or from the NMEA 2000 buss (see unit manual for instructions
on powering a NMEA 2000 buss).

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
pole mount adapter lets you mount the antenna on a pole or swivel
mount that uses standard marine 1" - 14 threads.

A 25-foot (7.62 m) Y-adapter extension cable is supplied with the LGC-

prevent the user from plugging the LGC-2000 directly into the unit.

GPS MODULE INSTALLATION
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: Do not mount
in line with a radar antenna. Radar radiates high-energy signals that
can interfere with GPS signal reception.

In an automobile, you may achieve good results by simply placing the
external antenna on the top of the dash, at the base of the windshield. A
