GUID-0E8EFC1A-5B75-4554-B74B-B79F5E3CC812 v3July 2022

Mounting Considerations
• You must mount the remote control on a flat surface.
• If there is not much clearance behind the mounting surface or you prefer to drill a smaller hole in the
mounting surface, you can use an MS-ERX400 spacer accessory (010-12922-02)
• If you are connecting the remote control to a stereo that may be exposed to water, add a drip loop to the
cable near the stereo to allow water to drip off of the cable and avoid damage to the stereo. The drip loop
should include the Ethernet cable and the power wires.
• If you need to mount the remote control on the exterior of a boat, you must mount it in a location far above
the waterline, where it is not submerged, and where it cannot be damaged by docks, pilings, or other pieces of
equipment.
• To avoid interference with a magnetic compass, you must install the remote control at least 15cm (5.9in.)
away from a compass.
Mounting the Remote Control
NOTICE
Do not use the remote control as a template when drilling the mounting holes because this may damage the
remote control and void the warranty.
Do not apply grease or lubricant to the screws when fastening the remote control to the mounting surface.
Grease or other lubricants can cause damage to the remote control housing.
Before you can mount the remote control, you must select a location in accordance with the mounting
considerations.
1Trim the template and adhere it to the mounting surface.
2Drill a hole inside the corner of the dashed line on the template, and use a jigsaw or rotary cutting tool to cut
along the inside of the solid line on the template.
NOTE: If you are using the accessory spacer and you would like a smaller hole in the surface, use a 44mm
(13/4) hole saw to cut the hole shown on the template.
3Ensure the mounting holes on the remote control line up with the pilot holes on the template.
2

4Using an appropriately sized drill bit for the mounting surface and screw type, drill the pilot holes.
5Remove the template from the mounting surface.
6Complete an action:
• If you are installing the remote control in a dry location, place the included mounting gasket on the
back of the remote control.
• If you are installing the remote control in a location that is exposed to water, apply silicone-based marine
sealant on the mounting surface around the cutout.
NOTICE
Do not install the included mounting gasket if you applied sealant to the mounting surface. Using sealant
and the mounting gasket may reduce water resistance.
7If you are using the spacer accessory, install the gasket or sealant on the back of the spacer.
8If you will not have access to the back of the remote control after installation, connect the network/power
cable to the back of the remote control, and tighten the locking ring.
9If you are using the spacer accessory, install the spacer and gasket or sealant between the mounting surface
and the remote control.
Refer to the diagram that came with the spacer.
10 Secure the remote control to the mounting surface using the included screws .
11 Snap the screw covers in place .
Power and Network Considerations
If you must extend the power and ground wires, you must use the appropriate gauge of wires. 18AWG
(0.82mm2) wires are suitable for most installations.
If you must extend the network cable, extension cables and couplers are available. See your Garmin® dealer for
details.
This remote control can either connect to a single stereo, such as an MS-RA770, or it can connect to the Fusion
PartyBus™ network to view and control all of the stereos on the network.
You can use this example to help plan a basic Fusion PartyBus network. If you need information about
creating a more advanced network with additional stereos and devices, see the installation instructions for
your compatible stereo.

Connecting to Power and the Network
1Route the network/power cable to the stereo or to the network switch or router.
NOTICE
Do not connect the cable to the stereo until after you have connected the power wires to avoid possible
damage to the stereo.
TIP: To avoid running additional wires to the battery, you can connect the power and ground wires from this
remote control to the power and ground wires used by the stereo. The stereo should be connected to power
though the ignition or another manual switch.
2Connect the red power wire to the positive (+) battery terminal through the ignition or another manual
switch .
WARNING
Do not remove the in-line fuse holder , to prevent the possibility of injury or product damage caused by fire
or overheating. Connecting the wire without the appropriate fuse in place voids the product warranty. If you
must extend the wire run, you should relocate the fuse so it is near the power source.
3Connect the black ground wire to the negative (-) battery terminal.
4Select an option:
• If you are using this device to control one stereo and do not have additional devices on a Fusion PartyBus
network, connect the network connector to the ETHERNET port on the stereo.
• If you have a network on the boat connecting multiple compatible devices, connect the network connector
to an open port on the network switch or router.
