Juodojo dėžės GND™ 10 modulis

The Garmin GND™ 10 module serves as a bridge between Nexus network devices and an NMEA 2000 network. It handles data conversion, enabling Nexus instruments, including the gWind™ and gWind™ Race wind sensors, to communicate with Garmin marine products and other NMEA 2000 devices.

Yes, the GND™ 10 module is designed to allow gWind™ and gWind™ Race wind sensors to communicate with Garmin marine products and NMEA 2000 equipment via the Nexus network.

Yes, the GND™ 10 module simplifies the use of Nexus sensor data with third-party navigation software such as Expedition and Adrena. It also allows the use of data from connected wind transducers with third-party navigation programs.

To connect the GND™ 10 to a computer, use the included USB cable. Connect one end to the module's USB port and the other to a free USB port on your computer. The LED near the USB port flashes green when the connection is correct. The driver should install automatically on Windows. If it does not, it can be downloaded from Garmin's website. Once connected, you can download and install the NexusRace™ software.

The dimensions of the GND™ 10 module are 170 mm (height) x 90 mm (width) x 50 mm (depth), or approximately 6.7 x 3.5 x 2 inches.

The operating temperature range of the GND™ 10 module is -15°C to 70°C (5°F to 158°F).

The GND™ 10 module has an IPX7 waterproof rating. This means it can withstand accidental immersion in water up to 1 meter deep for a maximum duration of 30 minutes.

To install the GND™ 10 module, first determine the mounting location. Use the device as a template to mark the two pilot hole positions on the surface. Drill pilot holes with a 3 mm (1/8 in) bit. Use the included screws to secure the device to the mounting surface. Ensure you check what is on the other side of the surface before drilling or cutting to avoid damaging the vessel.

When selecting the mounting location, ensure the device is not exposed to extreme temperatures or conditions. To avoid interference with a magnetic compass, the module must not be installed closer to a compass than the 10 cm (3.9 in) safety distance specified in the product documentation. If the included screws are unsuitable for the mounting surface, appropriate hardware must be purchased separately.

The GND™ 10 module connects to an NMEA 2000 network on your boat to share data from connected Nexus network devices. You will need an NMEA 2000 power cable, an NMEA 2000 drop cable, an NMEA 2000 terminator or backbone cable, and an NMEA 2000 T-connector. The module requires a 12 Vdc power source.

You must connect a Nexus network device to one of the NEXUS ports on the GND™ 10 module. A Nexus mast cable with a field-installable connector is included.

Yes, if you connect other devices in addition to a gWind™ sensor on the Nexus network, you must provide a separate power supply connected directly to the Nexus power terminals.

Yes, the GND™ 10 module allows updating its own software via the NMEA 2000 network.

The GND™ 10 provides extended control capabilities. It allows adjusting the lighting levels of Nexus Marine instruments from devices connected to the NMEA 2000 network. It also supports configuration and reset of race start timers and distance logs from Garmin devices connected to the NMEA 2000 network.

The GND™ 10 has status LEDs near the ports to simplify troubleshooting. For NMEA 2000, a flashing green LED indicates normal operation. For NEXUS and USB ports, a flashing green LED indicates the connected device is functioning correctly. Other colors and activities (solid red, flashing orange, flashing red) indicate power-on, a software update, or an error, respectively.

The GND™ 10 module is compatible with Nexus network devices, including gWind™ and gWind™ Race wind sensors. It also integrates with Garmin marine products and other NMEA 2000 equipment. Via its USB connection, it can interact with PC software such as NexusRace™ and third-party navigation software like Expedition and Adrena.

Yes, via its USB connection, the GND™ 10 module enables advanced calibration of the gWind Race™ wind sensors using the NexusRace™ software.

The GND™ 10 module weighs 196 grams (6.9 oz).

Yes, non-aeronautical products are warranted against material or manufacturing defects. Garmin will repair or replace, at its sole discretion, any defective component under normal use.

The limited warranty does not apply to cosmetic damage (scratches, dents), consumable parts (unless the damage is due to a manufacturing defect), damage caused by accident, abuse, misuse, water, flooding, fire, or other external causes. It also does not cover damage caused by service performed by a service provider not authorized by Garmin, nor damage related to prolonged exposure to extreme temperatures outside the specified range.
