MBB300C User's Manual

Revision 1.0
The MBB300C connects to a monitor through a VGA or HDMI connector and associated touch screen
through a USB or serial port connection.
Alternatives to controlling the N2KView
®
software through a touch screen include keyboards, mice, or
track balls connected through USB. In addition to the two completely isolated CAN bus connectors
(M12) for easy connection to single or redundant NMEA 2000
®
networks, the MBB300C has an
Ethernet port for connecting Internet Protocol (IP) cameras for viewing within the N2KView
®
software.
Of course,
you get the same flexibility using Maretron’s N2KView
®
software from the MBB300C as
you would running the software on a PC, which includes the ability to configure as many screens as
you want with exactly the information you want to see. Plus, you get free upgrades to the software as
improvements and new features are added.
The Maretron MBB300C is designed to operate within the harsh demands of the marine environment.
However, no piece of marine electronic equipment can function properly unless installed, configured,
and maintained in the correct manner. Please read carefully and follow these instructions for
installation, configuration, and usage of the Maretron MBB300C in order to ensure optimal
performance.
