Page 21: Toggle A Load On / Off From Multiple Momentary Input Sources
“Toggle Element” will be needed. Multi-Function Displays (MFDs) using 127500 Load Controller PGN or any equipment running Maretron’s N2KView® software could have direct access to the CLMD16’s ECB channels and the CLMD16 configuration will not be able to change the Digital Switching origination command for this type of equipment. - Page 22 CLMD16 Configuration Guide___________________________________ In the following circuit configuration example, there will be two momentary input sources used to switch a single CLMD16 load in a toggle fashion. One input is from a hardwired switch that has a momentary DC (-) signal called “Binary Event Low” and one input is a momentary Discrete I/O input called “Discrete I/O 1”, both will be used to toggle the single CLMD16 load.

Page 35: Turning On Or Off A Circuit Based On Fluid Level
____________________________________________________________ Turning On or Off a Circuit Based on Fluid Level In the following example there will be a freshwater pump load that turns Off based on tank level becoming low and restores functionality when filled back up. The freshwater pump in this example is connected to “ECB / Breaker 4”... - Page 36 CLMD16 Configuration Guide___________________________________ Step 2: Remembering our “Marker Point” of: “230 Ohms” the next step will be to navigate to the “Inputs Tab” and create a “Binary Event High Level” based on this “Marker Point”. The reason this is going to be a “High Level” indication is because the variable resistive sender Ohm level continuously goes higher as to tank level gets lower in fluid level.
- Page 37 ____________________________________________________________ Step 3: Next, an interjection of a “Logic Element” needs to be inserted into the freshwater pump circuit control. Find out what type of “Input Signal” is currently being used for the freshwater pump load. In this case it is “Network Input 4”. Remove “Network Input 4” and add an available “Logic Element”.

- Page 52 CLMD16 Configuration Guide___________________________________ Step 3: Map the “Toggle Elements” and the single “Logic Element” into the ECBs “Input Signals”. ensure “Toggle Mode” is Off. Because damage to the motor can occur if operated incorrectly, it is best this circuit has “Manual Mode” enabled on its ECBs. This will prevent an MFD using 127500 Load Controller PGN to have direct access to control the ECBs.
