Addendum I
Additional Instructions for
Lowrance M52i S/GPS
Your sonar/GPS unit, the M52i, functions exactly like the M52 de-
scribed in the manual provided (part 988-0152-001). In addition, the
M52i contains a communications port for NMEA 0183 output. The in-
structions for connecting data cables and setting up the communica-
tions port appear in this addendum.

NMEA 0183 Data Cable Connections
NMEA is a standard communications format for marine electronic
equipment. The M52i can send information to any device that receives
NMEA 0183 data. This allows the unit to work with VHF marine radios
equipped with the Digital Selective Calling (DSC) distress call feature.

To send NMEA 0183 data, the M52i has one NMEA 0183 version 2.0
communication port. The com port can be used to send NMEA format-
ted data such as your current position.

The provided M52i data cable plugs into the accessory socket on the right
side of the back of your unit's case. The data cable ends in two wires that
connect to your VHF radio or other NMEA device. The M52i uses the
yellow wire to transmit and the black shield wire for signal ground.

NOTE:
Some VHF radios, such as the popular Uniden
brand, have input lev-
els which require use of an additional diode and resistor built into the
M52i data cable. This is Wiring Diagram A, which is described on
page 2. The majority of the DSC radios will work with the resistor and
diode as provided by Lowrance Electronics.
