Hooking LGC3000 to Lowrance LCX113HD

[FastBird]

I bought a LCX113HD basically just for navigation. The seller failed to mention that I would need extra wiring to hook the LGC3000 to the LCX unit......


So is there an adapter cable to do this or will I have to guy the nmea kit?


Thanks

You can buy an adaptor cable.

You can buy an adaptor cable.

I cant find the correct cable. I need a female to female cable.

Does one exist?

Those old cables that have a NMEA pigtail are non-exixtant. Really, your only choice is a NMEA starter kit. It contains everything you would need to connect the LCX with and LGC with the possible exception of one T connector.

is the nmea connection mandatory?

The seller seems to think that the 2 ft extension cable (straight cable without the nmea connection) and a T are all I need?

Read the pinned post at the top of this page about networking for LCX units.

Not the case.
