To connect a RuuviTag sensor, go to the Bluetooth page. If the RuuviTag is detected, it will appear in the Unregistered Devices section.
If you do not see the RuuviTag, please follow the Ruuvi pairing process and check the device using the Ruuvi mobile application.
Note that when the device is shipped, a battery isolation tab is installed. This tab must be removed for the device to operate.
Once the device appears in the list, click “Pair”.
After clicking the Pair button, the a configuration window will appear.
You will be able to configure the following parameters:
- Instance
This allows multiple RuuviTag sensors to be connected and uniquely identified on the NMEA 2000 network.
In most installations, leaving the instance set to 0 (default) will work correctly. - Temperature Source
Select the temperature source from the RuuviTag that will be transmitted and displayed on your MFD. - Humidity Source
Select the humidity source to be transmitted.
Note that Garmin MFDs only display humidity when the source is set to “Outside Humidity.”
If you experience issues with the selected data source, you can unpair the device and repeat the pairing process, selecting a different source to troubleshoot the system.
