6.5 ACCESSORY CABLE\\
Wire Color/Description Connection Examples\\
WHITE - External Speaker (+) Connect to external 4 Ohm audio speaker\\
SHIELD - External Speaker (–) Connect to external 4 Ohm audio speaker\\
BLUE - NMEA GPS Input (+) Connect to NMEA (+) output of GPS\\
GREEN - NMEA GPS Input (–) Connect to NMEA (–) output or common ground of GPS\\
GRAY - NMEA DSC Output (+) Connect to NMEA (+) input of GPS\\
BROWN - NMEA GPS Output (–) Connect to NMEA (–) input of GPS\\
: Some GPS chart plotters have a single wire for NMEA signal ground. In such a case
connect the NMEA input (–) to the GPS chart plotter’s single NMEA signal ground wire, and
leave the NMEA output (–) open. In case the assignment of power supply and ground of a
GPS chart plotter to be used is different from that of the radio, connect the signal ground
wire of the GPS chart plotter to the ground terminal (GND) on the rear panel of the radio.
When connecting the external speaker, chart plotter, or external GPS
antenna, strip off about 1 inch (2.5 cm) of the specified wire’s insulation, then
splice the ends together.

Connecting to a GPS Receiver\\
If you connect the radio to a GPS receiver, the radio can automatically transmit your
current position during an automated distress call or during a normal DSC call.\\
Your radio supports a standard NMEA0183 input from a GPS receiver. Follow the steps
below to connect your radio to your GPS receiver:
1. Connect the GREEN wire of the included accessory cable to the GPS DATA OUTPUT (-)
WIRE or the GROUND WIRE on your GPS receiver.\\
2. Connect the YELLOW wire of the included accessory cable to the GPS DATA OUTPUT
(+) WIRE on your GPS receiver.\\
3. Be certain all wire connections are secure and that all open wires are adequately
covered.
# NOTE: to extend the life of the radio, use waterproof tape to seal electrical connections.\\
4. Plug the accessory cable into the accessory cable pigtail on the back of your radio.
GPS Verification\\
If the GPS receiver is correctly connected and it transmits valid data, the display shows GPS
Data OK. Press ENT-1W25W to open the GPS status screen and see detailed GPS data:
