  • Page 9 Device can function in one of three modes: MOB button, digital switching alarm unit or engine alarm unit. 1. MOB button mode This mode is factory default. Press connected button for two seconds (button hold time can be changed in settings) and Device will start sending NMEA 2000 MOB messages (PGNs 129038, 129802 and 127233), using current GPS position data received from NMEA 2000 network.
  • Page 10 Alarm Buttons with the same function installed at different places on the boat. Temperature, pressure and humidity sensors from Yacht Devices can be set up to turn target digital switching equipment channels ON or OFF when the measured value is too high or too low. For example, the Digital Thermometer can trigger an alarm on the Alarm Button when the temperature in an engine room or live well is too high.
  • Page 11 List of supported engine and transmission warnings is available in Appendix D. One Device can handle events from all engines, or you can link it to a particular engine by NMEA 2000 engine instance. For example, you can use two separate Devices (each one with its own dedicated speaker), one for port (instance 0) and another for starboard (instance 1) engine.
