Afișaj multifuncțional GMI 20 - 4''

The GMI 20 display is designed to centralize and show over 100 marine and vessel parameters. Here are the most common data:

Navigation: Speed, depth, GPS data (COG/SOG), position, heading.Wind: Wind speed and angle (true and apparent).Engine: Engine parameters and fuel level.System: Battery status, water temperature.It can also display route, waypoint, and cross-track error (XTE) information.

Yes, the 4-inch color screen of the GMI 20 is specifically designed for optimal readability in all conditions. It features a bonded glass lens with an anti-reflective finish that significantly improves daytime visibility and prevents fogging.

Yes, the GMI 20 offers dual compatibility. It is NMEA 2000® certified and can also connect to devices using the NMEA 0183 protocol. This allows it to integrate easily with most navigation systems, whether recent or older.

Absolutely. The GMI 20 is very flexible. It offers preconfigured profiles for powerboating, sailing, or fishing. Additionally, you can create your own fully customized profiles to organize and display the data most useful to you from over 100 available parameters.

Yes, the GMI 20 display has an IPX7 waterproof rating. This means it is protected against accidental immersion in water up to 1 meter deep for 30 minutes, ensuring reliability in harsh marine conditions.

The GMI 20 offers two installation options for a perfect integration on your dashboard. It can be installed as a flush mount or as a flat mount. Mounting templates are provided to simplify cutting and installation.

Yes, as long as the sensors are NMEA 2000-certified, they can communicate with the GMI 20 and display their data. The NMEA 2000 certification ensures interoperability between equipment from different manufacturers.

Yes, the GMI 20 allows you to set multiple audible alarms for enhanced safety. You can configure alerts for:

Depth (high and low)Anchor draggingWind (speed and angle)Battery voltageWater temperatureFuel levelEngine status

Yes, if your engine is NMEA 2000 compatible and connected to the network, the GMI 20 can display its data. It supports standard PGNs (Parameter Group Numbers) for engine parameters, such as RPM, temperature, pressure, etc.

The GMI 20 display is powered directly by the NMEA 2000 network. It does not require a separate power cable. The required input voltage via the NMEA 2000 network must be between 9 and 16 Vdc.

Yes, the GMI 20 has a "Color Mode" setting that lets you switch between a daylight color display optimized for high brightness and a night color display to avoid glare in the dark.

To avoid any interference with your steering compass, it is recommended to install the GMI 20 display at a minimum distance of 209 mm (8.25 inches) from any magnetic compass.

The GMI 20 comes with several preconfigured profiles to suit your activity. These profiles organize the most relevant instrument pages for each use:

Sailboat: Default display of apparent wind, heading, speed, etc.
Powerboat: Highlights GPS speed, position, distance to waypoint.
Fishing: Prioritizes GPS speed, water temperature, and depth display.
Customizable profiles are also available.

Yes, via the "Network Sharing" function on the NMEA 2000 network, the GMI 20 can share parameters such as the color mode (day/night) and backlight brightness with other compatible devices on the network. This allows you to adjust the display of all your screens in one go.

Yes, the "Auto Power" function allows the GMI 20 display to power on automatically as soon as the NMEA 2000 network is energized. This simplifies starting your onboard electronic system.

Installing the GMI 20 display is relatively straightforward. Carefully follow the installation instructions provided in the user manual (available on our website: https://www.garmin.com/support/manuals/gmi20/). It is recommended to prepare the mounting surface, cut the hole according to the provided template, and connect the NMEA 2000 cables in accordance with the instructions. Ensure the display is securely fastened to the surface using the supplied screws. For optimal installation, we recommend consulting a professional if you are not familiar with marine installations.

Yes, the GMI 20 display is designed to work with NMEA 2000 systems. It is compatible with most NMEA 2000 sensors and instruments, allowing you to centralize and display navigation data from various sources. It is compatible with NMEA 0183 protocols via an optional data cable (not included). Check the list of compatible sensors on our website: https://www.garmin.com/support/compatibility/

Yes, the GMI 20 display is IPX7 certified, meaning it is waterproof up to a depth of 1 meter for 30 minutes. However, we recommend that you always use the supplied sealing gaskets to protect the display from moisture and water spray. Do not submerge the device in water.

No, the GMI 20 display is not touch-sensitive. It is a color screen with control buttons for navigating menus and operating the device. It is designed for hands-free use while sailing.

You can configure the GMI 20 display alarms via the configuration menu. Each alarm (depth, water temperature, wind speed, etc.) can be customized by setting the threshold value and the type of alert (visual, audible). Refer to the user manual for detailed instructions on configuring alarms.

No, the GMI 20 display does not perform mapping directly. It displays navigation data from sensors connected to the NMEA 2000 network. For mapping, you will need a device compatible with the NMEA 2000 protocol, such as a GPS or chartplotter (not included).

The GMI 20 display is designed to withstand the shocks and vibrations encountered during navigation. However, it is recommended to handle it with care to avoid damage. It is also recommended to protect it from extreme shocks.

The GMI 20 screen dimensions are 110 x 115 x 30 mm (without the cover) and 115 x 120 x 35.5 mm (with the cover). The screen weight without the cover is 247 g and with the cover is 283 g.

Yes, the GMI 20 display is compatible with a wide range of sensors via the NMEA 2000 network. It can receive data from speed, direction, depth, water temperature, wind, and other sensors. Specific compatibility depends on the sensors used.

If you experience NMEA 2000 connection issues, check that all cables are properly connected and that the connections are secure. Ensure the NMEA 2000 power isolator is correctly connected and functioning. Also verify that the sensors and GMI 20 display are compatible with the NMEA 2000 protocol.

Yes, the GMI 20 display is IPX7 certified, meaning it is waterproof up to a depth of 1 meter for 30 minutes. However, we recommend always using the supplied sealing gaskets to protect the screen from moisture and water splashes. Do not submerge the device in water.
