We have a Furuno GP 32 we need to connect to our I-COM 502.
The wires from the gps are blue,green,yellow & white.
The wires from the VHF have two plugs that are RCA type plugs that are red & white. Anyone know what goes to what?

Thanks in advance from the FORDOTY Crew.

I'll get you an answer when I return to my office. In the meantime, anybody else feel free to jump in.

Fordity, here is what you do. The inner wire of the red rca jack is nmea in+. The outer ring is nmea in-. You are going to need to cut off that rca jack but keep track of which wire went to the inner pin and which went to the outer ring. Connect those wires to the furuno unit as shown below:


Furuno-----------><----------ICOM
White -----------><---------- inner wire
Black -----------><---------- outer wire

This will get you hooked up correctly. If you have a charplotter that can display DSC functions you can hook the white rca jack wire up to it. If you need instructions on that let me know. Good luck.
