Hi everybody.
Has anybody connected the garmin gps128 to the
Raymarine 54e vhf.
Cant seem to figure it out (doh).
What interface setting should I use on the Garmin. i.e
GRMN/GRMN, None/None,RTCM/None
RTCM/NMEA,NMEA/NMEA,or None/NMEA.

Use NMEA/NMEA at 4800 or 9600 Bouds.
I Connected a raymarine VHF (GMDSS + DSC) to a garmin GPS. It works perfect.

How did you configure the wiring.
The raymarine has green and yellow.
The garmin has nmea (blue ) out
NMEA ( brown ) in

The Garmin NMEA Out (blue) should connect to the Ray54 NMEA In+
(yellow). The Ray54 NMEA In- (green) should be connected to DC ground
(the radio's black power lead).

The message you replied to is about a month old, so the original
poster probably has the radio wired up by now.

However...

In the usual three conductor SeaTalk cable, the yellow wire does carry
SeaTalk data. - BUT: the Ray 54 radio does not use SeaTalk, and its
manual clearly indicates that the yellow wire in its data cable is
NMEA In +.

Hi Geert,
Thanks for the advice.
If the manual made any sense I wouldn't be posting on this site.
Will try the wiring above.
If I connect the green to the radios earth, will I have to earth the
radios casing
or will they be ok joined together and then sent to earth?

I checked the manual. Do like peter wrote. see pag 17 of the manual. You
must also connect the MINUS (-) or ground from both things to the MINUS
or ground. Ohterwise it wound work.
Were are you located. I'm sailing in NIEUWPOORT.
