The Garmin GMI™ 52 Wired Starter Pack is an all-in-one solution designed for digital instrumentation on your vessel. It enables the creation or expansion of an NMEA 2000 network, providing centralized display of essential boat data. It is ideal for owners of small sailboats or motorboats looking to modernize their analog systems.

The GMI 20 instrument can display a wide range of marine data, including:

Speed (water-referenced, COG/SOG)Water depthWind data (direction, speed)Vessel headingGNSS positionSystem timeEngine parameters (fast and dynamic updates)Battery statusEnvironmental data (temperature)Navigation information (course error, route data, and waypoints)

The dimensions of the GMI 20 display are as follows:

Without sunshade: 110 x 115 x 30 mm (height x width x depth)With sunshade: 115 x 120 x 35.5 mm (height x width x depth)

The GMI 20 instrument is rated IEC 60529 IPX7. This means it can withstand accidental immersion in water up to 1 meter deep for a maximum of 30 minutes.

The weight of the GMI 20 instrument is 247 g without the sunshade and 283 g with the sunshade.

The GMI 20 instrument housing is made of fully waterproof polycarbonate. The lens is glass with an anti-reflective finish.

No, damage caused by extreme temperatures, as well as their consequences, are not covered by the GMI 20 instrument warranty. It is critical to respect the specified operating temperature range, which is -15°C to 70°C (5°F to 158°F), for storage and use of the device.

The GMI 20 instrument is designed for flush mounting in the dashboard. A mounting template and necessary hardware are included in the package to facilitate installation.

Yes, when mounting the instrument in fiberglass, it is recommended to use a countersink drill bit to drill a relief pilot hole through the gelcoat layer only. This helps prevent cracking of the gelcoat layer when tightening the screws. It is also advisable to use an anti-seize lubricant when securing the screws.

Yes, it is recommended to place the supplied seal at the back of the device and apply marine sealant around the seal to prevent any water infiltration behind the dashboard.

The GMI 20 instrument connects to your boat's NMEA 2000 network. This network provides power and data from other NMEA 2000 devices, such as wind sensors. The pack includes the necessary NMEA 2000 cables and connectors to connect it to an existing network or to create a basic NMEA 2000 network.

The NMEA 2000 power cable must be connected to the boat's ignition switch or via another inline switch. It must not be connected directly to the battery, as NMEA 2000 devices can drain the battery if power is not cut off.

To avoid any interference with a magnetic compass, the GMI 20 instrument must not be installed closer to a compass than the specified safety distance, which is 209 mm.

To prevent corrosion of the metal contacts, it is important to cover the unused connectors with the supplied protective caps.

The GMI 20 instrument can receive NMEA 0183 data from a single device via an NMEA data cable (not included). However, it cannot transmit this NMEA 0183 data to the NMEA 2000 network. To display NMEA 0183 data from sources connected to a GNX™ 20 or GNX 21 device (sold separately), these devices must be on the same NMEA 2000 network.

Yes, the GMI 20 instrument can receive data from NMEA 0183 sensors, but this requires an optional NMEA 0183 data cable (not included). Note that the instrument will not retransmit NMEA 0183 data over the NMEA 2000 network.

Yes, the GMI 20 instrument can receive data from Nexus® instruments and sensors using a GND™ 10 device (sold separately).

A NMEA 2000 power isolator (part number 010-11580-00) is recommended in installations where the manufacturer of the existing NMEA 2000 network is unknown. This ensures the network operates correctly.

Yes, if you will not have access to the rear of the device after installation, it is imperative to connect all necessary cables to the GMI 20 instrument before placing it in the dashboard cutout.
