NOTICE
To prevent corrosion due to moisture, you must use Garmin GPSMAP accessory cables when connecting the
chartplotter to the computer. Using different cables voids your warranty.
You can connect the chartplotter to a computer to see the computer screen and to control the computer using
a touchscreen. To see the computer screen, you must connect the computer to the HDMI IN port and connect
the touchscreen to the HDMI OUT port. To control the computer using the chartplotter touchscreen, you must
connect the computer to the USB OTG port and connect the touchscreen to the USB HOST port.
