6.8 Maretron DSM150, DSM250 Configuration
You can use the DSM150 to configure other remotely-located DSM150 and DSM250 units by using
the Remote DSM150/DSM250 configuration menu as shown in Figure 61 below. This describes the
configuration of the Maretron DSM150/DSM250 firmware version 1.4.18. There are three
configurable items for the remote DSM150/DSM250
: “Remote Device Selection…”, “Copy device
selection from local display”, and “Copy favorite settings from local display”.

6.8.1 Remote Device Selection
A DSM150 unit can be used to configure a remote DSM150/DSM250 to set which NMEA 2000
®
devices are selected for display on the remote DSM150/DSM250 unit. In this manner, multiple
devices of the same type may be used on a NMEA 2000
®
network in a fail-safe configuration. For
example, a certain compass unit may be selected from several available compasses for display on
the remote DSM150/DSM250. The Remote DSM150/DSM250 Device Selection Menu for an example
network configuration can be seen in Figure 62 below.
WARNING : Do not select multiple devices of the same type for display. This will result in multiple and
possibly conflicting readings.
