3 SYSTEM INSTALLATION
This chapter provides specific information enabling you to
install the TT-3606E Opt. 003 NMEA Adapter on a TT-3000E
mini-C GMDSS System with a minimal effort. The default, or
factory configuration, is described together with procedures
for altering this configuration.

The current drawn will range from around 30mA when used as
a listener only. When the talker is active, the current drawn
can be up to 130mA when fully loaded.

TT-3606E Opt. 003 NMEA Adapter Installation & User Manual
The TT-3606E Opt. 003 NMEA Adapter has one talker port
(labelled “NMEA OUT”) and one listener port (labelled
“NMEA IN”). The labelling is shown in Figure 9.
To ease wiring there are 2 terminals for each signal. They are
internally connected to each other as can be seen in Figure
10.
In case the listener is placed at the end of the cable and the
baud rate is higher than 4800 baud, it is recommended to
terminate the cable. Provided the impedance of the cable is
around 120Ω, an internal 120Ω resistor can be enabled by
connecting jumper W1.
