Review how the B&G Triton2 000-13294-001 connects, how it operates and which installation requirements apply to this model.
Open this example as a new project. Use your own parts and cable lengths to make the plan yours.
The Triton² receives power through the protected NMEA 2000 network. It has no separate battery-feed terminals. Plan backbone power, termination, network load and voltage drop using B&G's network instructions.

000-13294-001 is the Triton2 digital instrument display. It presents wind, depth, speed and other values received from compatible network sources. It does not create those measurements itself. Autopilot pages also require a compatible pilot system and the relevant controls; adding a display is not an autopilot installation.
The display is powered from a 12 V NMEA 2000 backbone, with a specified 10–16 V supply range. There is no separate battery-positive and battery-negative pair on this component. Use an appropriate drop cable and T-piece on a correctly powered and terminated backbone. A 24 V house bank requires a suitable 12 V network supply arrangement.
B&G specifies maximum consumption of 1.8 W and a network load of 3 LEN. LEN is a network power-budget unit, not a three-amp load. Add the display to the backbone's current and voltage-drop calculation with all the other devices. The product's 5 A fuse specification concerns its network supply arrangement; it is not the display's consumption or a reason to fuse an individual data pin.
The canvas therefore exposes a signal/network marker only. The planner does not carry network power through that marker. Include the display's 1.8 W allowance when budgeting the real backbone feed, and do not interpret an unmodeled network load as zero consumption.
After mounting where the display can be read and its connector remains accessible, power the network and open its source settings. Automatic source selection is a useful starting point, but installations with two GPS, depth or wind sources need an explicit check of the chosen source and any shared source group. A plausible number can still come from the wrong sensor.
Configure pages for the measurements actually installed, then set units and display behavior. Calibrate relevant sensor values using the operator manual. In particular, a depth offset changes the reference from the transducer to the keel or waterline; record its sign and purpose so the displayed clearance is understood.
Check every required page against a known source and verify alarms with suitable test settings. If the screen is dark, investigate backbone supply and drop voltage. If it is powered but displays missing or erratic values, check device discovery, source selection, termination and the sensor itself before replacing the display. Backlight changes are an operating preference; they do not replace planning for the published maximum network demand.

Build it out
Add 000-13294-001 to your diagram, then connect your batteries, chargers and loads. Crimp calculates cable sizes and checks the connections as you draw.
Every cable you draw there is sized against ABYC E-11, from the same tables as the reference on this page.
Technical reference
Check the model, ratings and connection points against your own unit before choosing installation hardware.
Check stud sizes, fuse type, run length and how warm the space gets against the gear you actually have before you order.
Catalog connection points, current direction and planning limits. Check the manufacturer's pinout and connector ratings before installation.

Method & provenance
Manufacturer specifications describe the equipment. Crimp calculates cable results from the circuit and assumptions you enter.
From the maker
Manufacturer, model, ratings and which terminal does what come from the catalog. A newer revision, or the nameplate on the unit in your hand, can say something different — when it does, the nameplate wins.
ABYC E-11
Sized against ABYC E-11. Boats built to UK or EU rules answer to ISO 13297 — check these figures against it before you build. The run length and the current above are what drive the result. Crimp doesn't know how warm your space gets; draw the cable inside an engine-bay zone on the canvas and it sizes for the heat.
