Introduction

Congratulations on your purchase of the Maretron MBB300C Vessel Monitoring and Control Black
Box. Maretron has designed and built your system to the highest standards for years of dependable
and accurate service.
Maretron's Black Box (MBB300C) is a dedicated processing unit that includes Maretron's N2KView
®
vessel monitoring and control software. Unlike a PC that allows any software to be loaded, the
®
MBB300C runs only N2KView software, making it extremely stable and dedicated to monitoring and
controlling your vessel.
The MBB300C is ruggedized for marine use and includes a solid state disk drive to withstand the
pounding associated with waves. And since the MBB300C dissipates less than 10 watts, there is no
need for internal cooling fans that are noisy and wear out causing electronics to overheat and fail.
