1.1
detects incoming messages from the J1939 network and translates them into corresponding
NMEA 2000
®
PGNs. For example, if the J2K100 receives engine-related messages from the
J1939 network but no transmission or genset messages, then the J2K100 will generate the
corresponding NMEA 2000
®
engine PGNs, but it will not transmit any NMEA 2000
®
transmission or genset messages. As another example, let’s say that there is an engine and a
genset connected to the J1939 network, yet we are only interested in having the engine
messages translated to corresponding NMEA 2000
®
PGNs. In this case, the J2K100 can be
configured to enable engine PGNs while disabling genset PGNs. You can configure the
J2K100 using a Maretron DSM200 or DSM250 display or other NMEA 2000
®
display unit that
is capable of configuring the J2K100. Please refer to the Maretron
DSM200 User’s Manual
or
DSM250 User’s Manual
, as appropriate, for details.
3 Maintenance
Regular maintenance is important to ensure continued proper operation of the Maretron
J2K100. Perform the following tasks periodically:
•
Clean the unit with a soft cloth. Do not use chemical cleaners as they may remove
paint or markings or may corrode the J2K100 enclosure or seals.
•
Ensure that the unit is mounted securely and cannot be moved relative to the mounting
surface. If the unit is loose, tighten the mounting screws.
•
Check the security of the cable connected to the NMEA 2000
®
and J1939 connectors
and tighten if necessary.
