Section 1: Introduction
Thank you for buying the Lowrance
®
LMF-200. Your unit is a high-
quality, multi-function, digital gauge designed to work with a
LowranceNET™ network. This is the NMEA 2000
®
networking system
developed by Lowrance Electronics.
Caution:
Installing LowranceNET NMEA 2000 devices is significantly
different from installing earlier Lowrance components without
NMEA 2000 features. You should read all of the installation
instructions before proceeding.
This gauge will only work with a NMEA 2000 network. It MUST be
connected to a NMEA 2000 network or it WILL NOT function. When
properly installed, the LMF-200 will display information from a variety
of Lowrance Electronic Probe (EP) sensors and other NMEA 2000
devices connected to the network.
A NMEA 2000 network using LowranceNET components.
All Lowrance NMEA 2000 capable devices are either NMEA 2000
certified or certification is pending. See our web site,
www.lowrance.com,
for the latest product status information.
To get started with your Lowrance gauge, first read Section 2:
Installation. It contains instructions for installing the LMF-200. fter
you have read those instructions, install the gauge and any EP sensors
you may have purchased and read the rest of this manual. Each sensor
comes with its own installation instruction sheet, but his manual
describes how the gauge operates with each sensor, and how to
configure and calibrate the sensors. Your gauge includes another
manual, NMEA 2000 Networks General Information, part number 988-
0154-172, which contains complete instructions for creating or
expanding a NMEA 2000 network.
