Connection Considerations
You can connect the MS-NRX300 remote control to a Fusion® stereo using one of two methods, depending on
the stereo:
• A new Fusion remote control network
• An existing NMEA 2000 network
The main difference between a Fusion remote control network and a NMEA 2000 network is how they receive
power. A NMEA 2000 network receives power through a power cable connected to the backbone and a power
source.
A Fusion remote control network receives power from the stereo. The stereo can supply power to a Fusion
remote control network if it has the NRX POWER option in the SETTINGS menu or if a red drop cable is included
in the stereo box. The Fusion remote control network can support up to three remote controls.
If the stereo cannot supply power to the Fusion remote control network, you must connect the MS-NRX300
remote control using the NMEA 2000 network.
NMEA 2000 Connection Considerations
You may connect the remote control to the stereo using an existing NMEA 2000 network.
• You can connect more than three MS-NRX300 remote controls to one Fusion stereo.
• You are connecting to a Fusion stereo that cannot provide power to the remote.
• You can control a connected Fusion stereo from a FUSION-Link™ compatible chartplotter.

Compatible chartplotter
MS-NRX300 remote control*
12Vdc power source with an ignition or in-line switch
NMEA 2000 drop cable and T-connector, dependant on stereo. See the following table.
NMEA 2000 drop cable
NMEA 2000 power cable, 2m (6ft.)
NMEA 2000 terminator or backbone cable
NMEA 2000 T-connector*
*Components included with the MS-NRX300 remote control.
NOTE: The NMEA 2000 network may include other NMEA 2000 devices.
NMEA 2000 Cables and Software Settings
The cables required to connect to the NMEA 2000 network vary depending on the stereo. See the table below to
determine which cables and possible software settings are required for your stereo model.
All stereos require a T-connector to connect the drop cable to the NMEA 2000 network. You can extend the drop
cable to a maximum length of 6m (20ft.) using a standard NMEA 2000 cable.

Fusion Remote Control Network Connection Considerations
You may connect the remote control to the stereo using a standalone powered Fusion remote control network if
you have the following conditions.
• You do not have a full NMEA 2000 network on your boat.
• You are connecting three or fewer MS-NRX300 remote controls to one Fusion stereo.
• You are connecting to a Fusion stereo that can provide power to the remote. The stereo can supply power to
the remote control if it has an NRX POWER option in the SETTINGS menu or if a red drop cable is included.

Fusion Remote Control Network Cables and Software Settings
The cables required to connect to the Fusion remote control network vary depending on the stereo. See the
table below to determine which cables and possible software settings are required for your stereo model.
The stereo can supply power to the remote control if it has an NRX POWER option in the SETTINGS menu or if a
red drop cable is included.
Stereo characteristics Cables and software settings required
NRX POWER option in software.
• Included NMEA 2000 drop cable required.
• You must enable the NRX POWER setting to provide power to the remote
control. Select > SETTINGS > POWER OPTIONS > NRX POWER.
NRX POWER option in software,
NMEA 2000 cable hardwired to
stereo.
• Use the cable on the stereo wiring harness. No additional cables needed.
• You must enable the NRX POWER setting to provide power to the remote
control. Select > SETTINGS > NRX POWER.
No NRX POWER option in
software. Not supported. Connect to a NMEA 2000 network.
Mounting Considerations
When selecting a mounting location, observe these considerations.
• The device must be mounted in a location where there is at least 75mm (3in.) of clearance behind the
mounting surface and you can access the controls after it is mounted.
• If you want to mount the device outside the boat, it must be mounted in a location well above the waterline,
where it is not submerged.
• If you want to mount the device outside the boat, it should be mounted in a location where it will not be
damaged by a docks, pilings, or other pieces of equipment.
Mounting the Remote Control
1At the mounting location, use a 50mm (2in.) hole saw to cut through the mounting surface.
2Place the remote control in the cutout and mark the pilot holes.
3Remove the remote control from the cutout, and using a 2.5mm (3/32in.) drill bit, drill the pilot holes.
4Apply marine sealant around the cutout (optional).
5Place the gasket on the back of the remote control.
6Feed the attached NMEA 2000 cable through the cutout.
7Place the remote control in the cutout.
8Secure the remote control to the mounting surface using the included screws.
9Install the decorative bezel around the edges of the remote control.
10 Route the NMEA 2000 cable away from sources of interference and connect it to the NMEA 2000 network or
the Fusion remote control network.
