How to check your display in 30 seconds

  1. 1Find your modelIt is printed on the display bezel or in the settings menu (About or System Info).
  2. 2Read the video inputPick your brand and model above. You will see BNC (analog), HDMI, both, or no camera input.
  3. 3Order the matching versionChoose the Nitron XR1 or XD Pro in the Analog or HDMI version, and add the display maker's cable if your model needs one.

Which video port does your display have?

BNC (coax)Round metal plug with a twist lock. Labeled Video In, CVBS In or Composite. Order the Analog version.
RCASingle round plug, often yellow. Use the BNC to RCA adapter in our box with the Analog version.
HDMIFlat plug, like a TV. It must be an HDMI input. Many displays have HDMI out only.

Which night vision camera is best for my chartplotter?

Both Nitron cameras connect the same way, so the choice comes down to where you run. Inshore and coastal, the XR1 is the popular pick. Far offshore on the darkest nights, the XD Pro has the more sensitive sensor and a wider view. Add an IR light to either camera for runs with no ambient light.

Compatibility questions

What is the best night vision camera for my chartplotter?
The best camera is one your display can show and that fits how you run. Most chartplotters with a video input take either Nitron camera. Inshore and coastal, most boaters choose the Nitron XR1. Far offshore on the darkest nights, the Nitron XD Pro has the more sensitive sensor and a wider view. Pick your display above to see which version, Analog or HDMI, to order.
What comes in the box with a Nitron camera?
The camera, a 25 ft harness with a 4-pin quick connect, a video lead that ends in a standard BNC (coax) connector on the Analog version or an HDMI connector on the HDMI version, red and black 12V DC leads, a BNC to RCA adapter, and stainless mounting screws. The XD Pro adds a 5 A inline fuse, an anodized aluminum mount and dielectric grease.
Do I need any other adapters, connections or cables?
Most Garmin GPSMAP, Raymarine Axiom Pro, Axiom XL and eS, and Simrad NSO displays need nothing else. Simrad NSS evo2, evo3 and evo3S, and B&G Zeus3S, need the video/data cable, part 000-00129-001. Lowrance HDS displays need the Lowrance Video Adapter Cable, part 000-11010-001, for analog video. Humminbird APEX needs the AD HDMI IN 10 cable, part 720119-1. Pick your model above to see the exact answer.
How do I know if I need the Analog or HDMI camera?
Your display's video input decides it. A BNC or RCA video input takes the Analog version. An HDMI input takes the HDMI version. If your display has both, either version works.
My display has an HDMI port. Why does the chart say Analog?
Many displays have an HDMI output only, used to send the screen to a second monitor. An output port cannot receive a camera. Garmin GPSMAP 1243xsv and 1643xsv, Simrad NSS evo3 12 and 16, and Raymarine Axiom 2 Pro are common examples. Order the Analog version for those.
Does the Simrad NSO evo3S take the HDMI camera?
The NSO evo3S 16 and 19 inch displays have an HDMI input and two BNC video inputs, so either version works. The NSO evo3S MPU processor box has BNC video inputs and an HDMI output only, so order the Analog version for the processor.
My display is not listed. What do I do?
Text a photo of the back of your display or your helm to 941-408-5516, or call 800-348-1287. We will confirm the input and the right version before you order.
Will a Nitron camera work with a network or IP camera input?
No. Nitron cameras send analog or HDMI video, not a network (IP) feed. Displays that only take IP cameras over Ethernet, such as Simrad NSX and B&G Zeus S, cannot show a Nitron camera.
Can I see the camera on more than one display?
Plan on the picture showing on the display the camera is wired to. Garmin shares analog video across the Garmin Marine Network, while most brands do not share HDMI video. Tell us your setup and we will help you plan it.
I am mounting the camera upside down under a T-top. Will the picture be right side up?
Yes. Order the undermount build and we set the camera up for inverted mounting. Some displays can also flip the image in their settings.
Still not sure? We will check it for you.Text a photo of the back of your display to 941-408-5516 or call 800-348-1287.
