1
Use a pencil to mark the three screw locations
and to trace the cable-hole in the center of the
bracket.
2
Set the surface-mount bracket aside.
Do not drill through the surface-mount bracket.
3
Drill the three / in. (3.2 mm) pilot holes.

NotE: If you are mounting the GPS 19x
on fiberglass, it is recommended to use a
countersink bit to drill a clearance counterbore
through the top gelcoat layer (but no deeper).
This will help to avoid cracking in the gelcoat
layer when the screws are tightened.
4
Use a 1 in. (25 mm) hole saw to cut the cable
hole in the center.
5
Place the seal pad

Use the included M4 screws to attach the
surface-mount bracket to the mounting surface.

Verify that the large gasket
bottom of the antenna, place the antenna on the
surface-mount bracket, and twist it clockwise to
lock it in place.

Secure the antenna to the mounting bracket with
the included M3 set screw

Route the cable away from sources of electronic
interference, and connect it to your NMEA 2000
network (page 3).
Mounting the Antenna on a Pole
With the included pole-mount adapter attached to the
antenna, you can install it on a standard 1 in. OD, 14
threads per inch, pipe-threaded pole (not included).
You can route the cable outside of the pole or
through the pole.
Before you permanently mount the antenna, test the
mounting location for correct operation
Mounting the Antenna with the Cable
Routed outside of the Pole
1
Route the cable through the pole-mount adapter
, and place the cable in the vertical slot
➊
along the base of the pole-mount adapter.
2
Screw the pole-mount adapter onto a standard
1 in. OD, 14 threads per in., pipe-threaded pole
(not included).
Do not overtighten the adapter on the pole.
3
Connect the cable to the antenna.
4
Place the antenna on the pole-mount adapter
and twist it clockwise to lock it in place.
5
Secure the antenna to the adapter with the
included M3 set screw
6
With the antenna installed on the pole mount, fill
the remaining gap in the vertical cable slot with a
marine sealant (optional).

Attach the pole to the boat if it is not already
attached.

Mounting the Antenna with the Cable
Routed through the Pole
1
Position a standard 1 in. OD, 14 threads per in.,
pipe-threaded pole (not included) in the selected
location, and mark the approximate center of the
pole.
2
Drill a hole using a
3
cable to pass through.
3
Fasten the pole to the boat.
4
Thread the pole-mount adapter onto the pole.
Do not overtighten the adapter.
5
Route the cable through the pole and connect it
to the antenna.
6
Place the antenna on the pole-mount adapter
and twist it clockwise to lock it in place.

With the antenna installed on the pole mount, fill
the vertical cable slot

Route the cable away from sources of electronic
interference, and connect it to your NMEA 2000
network (page 3).
Mounting the Antenna under a
Surface
Notice
Before attaching the under-deck mounting bracket to
the surface, verify that the supplied screws will not
penetrate the surface. If the supplied screws are too
long, you must purchase surface-appropriate screws
to complete the installation.
Because the antenna cannot acquire signals through
metal, it must be mounted under a fiberglass surface
only.
1
Determine and test the location under a
fiberglass surface where you want to mount the
antenna (page 1).
