This intermediate system allows the Blue Seas Systems remote battery switch to be monitored and controlled over an NMEA 2000 network using Maretron’s 4.1” color display. The state of the battery (On or Off) is indicated on the display and the battery switch can be turned On or Off from the display. In addition, the Ethernet gateway (IPG100) and WiFi/Router allow a Smartphone or tablet device running N2KView® Mobile to monitor and control the battery switch.
The following table shows the products included within this example system plus a list of the information or data available for display.
