RM600D REMOTE UNIT
The RM600D remote unit provides a remote head
connection to allow operation of the GX600D from
a flybridge or second station on your vessel.
The RM600D conveniently plugs into the GX600D using
an interconnecting cable and no additional interface
wiring is required.
The RM600D is supplied with a DC lead for connection
to a 12 Volt power source and 5 metres of terminated
interconnecting cable. Additional terminated cables are
available in 5 and 10 metre lengths.
When connected, the RM600D can duplicate all functions
of the GX600D. In addition it includes an Intercom feature
that allows internal communications between the GX600D
and the RM600D.
The RM600D is supplied with a standard PTT microphone
which is interchangeable with the alphanumeric
microphone supplied with the GX600D. Because of the
additional functions accessible from the alphanumeric
microphone, master control is given to whichever device
has the alphanumeric microphone connected. However
the main unit GX600D always has priority. If the GX600D
is switched off the system will not operate and no back
lighting will show on the RM600D LCD display. Before

changing the microphones, both units should be
switched off.

Note: Only one alphanumeric microphone should be
connected to any GX600D/RM600D combination.

INSTALLATION
INSTALLING THE UNIT
After choosing your location, hold the unit with the
mounting bracket attached into the desired position and
mark the location with a pencil. Remove the mounting
bracket from the radio and drill the mounting holes. Bolt or
screw the bracket in place using hardware suitable for the
mounting surface. The unit is supplied with stainless steel
screws; however, if the mounting surface is unsuitable for
screws you may need to replace these with stainless steel
bolts. Remember the fixings for overhead mounted units
may have to withstand heavy pounding when the vessel is
in rough water or being towed on a trailer.

It is advisable to spend a little time selecting the best
location for your RM600D. The mounting bracket can be
rotated above, below or behind the radio enabling the radio
to be mounted in a wide range of locations. In addition,
using the optional flush mounting kits (MK600, MK001,
MK002) the RM600D can be mounted directly in a panel or
dashboard. The flush mounting kits allow for installation or
replacement of any existing VHF radio.

It is recommended that the microphone be left permanently
connected to the RM600D, but if it must be disconnected,
proceed as follows:
1. Insert a small screw driver between the rubber boot
and the lip of the raised area on the front panel.
2. Ease the rubber boot out of the cable entry hole and
slide it along the cable away from the front panel.

months from the date of purchase from their
authorised retailer.
Should the product require servicing during this period,
all labour and parts used to effect repairs will be supplied
free of charge. GME reserve the right to determine whether
damage has been occasioned by accident, misuse or
improper installation whereby the warranty would be void,
including equipment which has been damaged due to:
(a)
Incorrect or reverse polarity connection to a battery or
power supply or to an incorrect supply voltage.
(b)
 peration of the main unit GX600 without an
antenna or by connection to an antenna which has
been incorrectly installed, resulting in damage to
the radio’s output circuit.
(c)
Non-factory modifications.
Cable entry hole
If required, replacement microphones are available with
plug and rubber boot already fitted.
WATER PROOFING CONNECTIONS
Although the RM600D itself is designed to resist the
ingress of water, the cable connectors are not completely
waterproof. After installation, the speaker and remote
connectors should be wrapped in waterproof tape or similar
to minimise the risk of corrosion or water damage. Do
not use normal electrical tape as this will not provide an
adequate seal against water. The connectors should then be
positioned where they are not directly exposed to
the elements.
WARRANTY
GME limit this warranty to the original purchaser of
the equipment.
GME warrant the RM600D to be free from defects in
material and workmanship for a period of twelve (12)
Procedure to be followed by Claimant:  In the event of a
defect occurring during the warranty period, the original
purchaser may return the defective unit along with suitable
proof of purchase date (i.e. receipt, docket, credit card slip
etc.) and a full description of the defect to the retailer from
whom the unit was purchased. All freight charges incurred
for transportation by the retailer or GME are the
purchaser’s responsibility.
GME AFTER SALES SERVICE
Your GME radio is especially designed for the environment
encountered in marine installations.  The use of all solid
state circuitry, careful design and rigorous testing, result in
high reliability. Should failure occur however, GME maintain
a fully equipped service facility and spare parts stock to
meet the customer’s requirements long after expiry of the
warranty period.
