Installing the Maretron CLMD16 involves the following steps.

When unpacking the box containing the Maretron CLMD16, you should find the following items:

1 – CLMD16 – 16 Channel DC Load Controller Module

1 – CLMD16 Quick Start Guide

1 – CLMD16 Mounting Template

1 – USB Flash Drive with Maretron Documentation

1 – Warranty Registration Card

If any of these items are missing or damaged, please contact Maretron Technical Support

(please refer to the Technical Support section for contact information).

Please consider the following when choosing a mounting location.

• The CLMD16 is waterproof, so it can be mounted in a damp or dry location.

• The CLMD16 is temperature-rated to 70°C (158°F), so it should be mounted away from

engines or engine rooms where the operating temperature exceeds the specified limit.

• Mount the unit so that the connections are at the bottom if possible.

Locate and drill mounting holes according to the mounting template supplied with the CLMD16.

Attach the CLMD16 securely to the vessel using mounting screws or other fasteners through the four

mounting holes at each corner of the unit. Do not use thread-locking compounds containing

methacrylate ester, such as Loctite Red (271), as they will cause stress cracking of the plastic

enclosure.

Connecting the CLMD16 consists of making the following six connections outlined below:

• Connecting the unit's (2) main DC connections

• Connecting output and input connections (J1-J3)

• Connecting to the vessel's NMEA 2000 ® network

Required connections for the CLMD16 are shown in Figure
