LED Lighting Control
If you have installed a Garmin Spectra™ lighting controller, you can use the chartplotter to activate and change connected LED lights. You can quickly turn LED lights on and off, and you can adjust the brightness, color, and effects. You can also create groups of connected LED lights and specialized scenes to quickly toggle different lights and lighting effects.
When a compatible Fusion® stereo is connected to the same NMEA 2000® as the Garmin Spectra lighting controller and chartplotter, you can control lights from the stereo and you can configure lights so they react to music played on the stereo.
Before you can access LED lighting control on the chartplotter, you must install one or more Garmin Spectra lighting controllers and connect your LED lights. See the installation instructions provided with the Garmin Spectra lighting controller for installation details.
You can access LED lighting screen by selecting .
Setting some LED light effects or setting the LED lights to react to music may result in lights flashing at various intervals. Consult your physician if you have epilepsy or are sensitive to bright or flashing lights.
Before you can control any connected lights using the chartplotter or a compatible stereo, you must first initialize the lights (Initializing Connected LED Lights).
