Figure 5 - NBE100 Advanced Tab
2.5.3 PGN Filter Tab
The NBE100 has a feature with which only certain messages will be passed from one port to
the other, as opposed to the default state, in which all messages are passed between both
ports. Messages to be passed are selected on the basis of the Parameter Group Numbers
(PGN's) of the messages. This is useful for passing only certain information from the NMEA
2000 network on one port of the NBE100 to the NMEA 2000 network on the other port.
If the PGN Filter is enabled the NBE100 will filter all PGNs except for the PGNs entered into the
"Exception Field". Where "CAN1" refers to the NBE100's "N2K Port A" and "CAN2" refers to the
NBE100's "N2K Port B", the PGN Filter can filter PGNs traveling from CAN1 to CAN2, CAN2 to
CAN1 or PGNs traveling both directions. To enable PGN Filtering, select "Enable" in the drop-
down box located under the desired PGN traveling direction to be filtered. To enable PGN
filtering exceptions, enter the PGN number into the "PGN" field located under the "Filter Enabled"
dialog. See example of the NBE100 PGN Filter Tab in the preceding figure for example of this
feature.
