Did your kit come with a row of T's. That plus the end cap resistor and that part labeled C is Called the NMEA 2000 Backbone. What do those Square plugs you left in go to? Looks Like Smartcraft stuff. I Know they make a box that will convert that to NMEA 2000.

I know the Square plugs go into the unit you removed but where do they go from there?

Whats labeled C in the kit is simply the 12V power cord into the NMEA network. Those plugs are smartcraft stuff??! I thought the point of this whole kit was to get the smartcraft stuff onto the NMEA network???

Ya that is just for the Gateway.. lol for a 1000 bucks you would think it came with a NMEA backbone. Anyway this should complete your setup.

Yes it will. How many Simrad screens are you running? Anything else going to need NMEA 2000 connectivity.. Like fusion radio or anything else?

2 simrad screens, one for Nav and one for gauges/smartcraft. Only other thing hooked in will likely be stereo and fuel level.

Got the first Simrad unit installed and hooked onto the NMEA/Smartcraft backbone, but it does not give me the 1075 option when selecting what type of engines I have. I’m sure it is just a matter of downloading something, but anyways just waiting on Outerlimits to send me back a new blank carbon dash and I’m going to put a 12” Simrad on the other side.
