This entry allows you to assign a text label to the device. This label is visible in Maretron analysis and
display products and allows you to easily identify the particular device.

The operating mode of each channel may be set to either DCR (DC Relay), in which case the state of
the channel is controlled by “Circuit Breaker / Switch” controls in N2KView or “Switch/Breaker”
favorite screens in the DSM150/DSM250 displays. This section of the manual assumes the operating
mode has been set to “ALM”.

This entry allows you to program the instance number for the ALM function. You may use a value

annunciators to sound when programming an alert.

Select this entry to verify functionality of the channel in ALM mode. This will cause the annunciator to
