Installing the GHC 10
Install the GHC 10 by ush-mounting it in the dashboard near the helm, connecting it to power and to the yellow CCU signal wire
from the CCU/ECU interconnect cable, and connecting it to a NMEA 2000 network. Optionally, you can connect the GHC 10 to a
NEMA 2000 or NMEA 0183-compatible GPS device to use waypoint and route data.
Mounting the GHC 10
Flush mount the GHC 10 in the dashboard near the helm.
When you select an installation location for the GHC 10, choose a location with the following characteristics:
Provides optimal viewing as you operate your vessel.
Allows easy access to the keypad on the GHC 10.
Is strong enough to support the weight of the GHC 10 and protect it from excessive vibration or shock.
Allows room for the routing and connection of the cables for power and data. There should be at least a 3-inch (8 cm) clearance
behind the case.
Is at least 9

in. (0.24 m) from a magnetic compass, to avoid interference.
Is in an area that is not exposed to extreme temperature conditions.
NOTE: The temperature range for the GHC 10 is from 5°F to 158°F (from -15°C to 70°C). Extended exposure to temperatures outside of
this range (in storage or operating conditions) may cause failure of the LCD screen or other components. This type of failure and related
consequences are not covered by the manufacturer’s limited warranty.
To ush mount the GHC 10:
1. The ush-mount template is included in the product box. Trim the template and ensure it will t in the location at which you want to
ush mount the GHC 10.
2. The ush-mount template has adhesive on the back. Remove the protective liner and
apply the template to the location where you want to ush mount the GHC 10.
3. If you will be cutting the hole with a jigsaw, and not a 3

/
32
in. (90 mm) hole saw, use a
3
/
8
in. (10 mm) drill bit to drill a pilot hole as indicated on the template to begin cutting the
mounting surface.
4. Using the jigsaw or the 3
17
/
32
in. (90 mm) hole saw, cut the mounting surface along
the inside of the dashed line indicated on the ush-mount template. Use a le and
sandpaper to rene the size of the hole.
5. Place the GHC 10 into the cutout to conrm that the four mounting holes are correct
after rening the hole. If not, mark the correct locations of the four mounting holes.
Remove the GHC 10 from the cutout.
6. Using the center punch, indent the center of each of the four pilot-hole locations.
7. Drill the four
1
/
8
in. (3.2 mm) pilot holes.
NOTE: If you are mounting the GHC 10 in berglass, it is recommended to use a countersink bit to drill a clearance counterbore through
only the top gel-coat layer. This will help to avoid any cracking in the gel-coat layer when the screws are tightened.
8. Remove the remainder of the template.
9. Place the GHC 10 into the cutout.
10. Securely tighten the four mounting screws through the GHC 10 into the drilled mounting holes.
NOTE: Stainless-steel screws may bind when screwed into berglass and overtightened. Garmin recommends applying an anti-galling,
stainless anti-seize lubricant to the screws before installing them.
11. Snap the mounting covers into place to install them.
