Whether you are interested in monitoring your vessel’s systems while underway or remotely from your home or office, Maretron’s N2KView^® software displays the information you need including engines, generators, tanks, rudders, navigation instruments, local weather, and much, much more. N2KView^® is completely user-configurable and you are free to create different screens for your exact needs while easily switching from screen to screen for monitoring all your systems. Digital displays, analog gauges, graphic displays, warning lights, and bar graphs, all can be configured exactly how you want them to be. You can even set the operating limits and color bands for analog gauges so you know when things are within limits and when they are not.

N2KView^® is a comprehensive vessel monitoring and control software that goes beyond simple monitoring. With N2KView^® you get additional functionality including alerts, video, control, and fuel management. The alerts functionality allows you to setup as many warnings and alarms as you need so you can be forewarned of potential problems. With alerts, you can relax knowing that the system is watching for smoke, CO, high bilge water, or anything else you deem important. N2KView^® video capability allows you to add cameras as part of the monitoring system - for example a camera in the engine room - or the cameras can be used as part of the security system. The control functionality gives you the ability to manage your electrical system; for example, you can turn lights or pumps on or off directly from N2KView^® and even tell if the lights or pumps are burned out and not working. Lastly, the fuel management function uses information from the fuel flow monitor, tank monitors, and GPS to provide advanced information like distance and time to empty as well as fuel rate and fuel economy.

Maretron’s N2KView® Mobile software allows you to monitor and control your vessel’s systems from your smart phone or tablet device. This includes Android (2.2 and higher) smart phones and tablets as well as Apple iPod, iPhone, and iPad. Whether it’s onboard via WiFi or ashore via an Internet connection, you can see what is happening aboard your vessel and even control things like your air conditioner, watermaker, lights, pumps, and more.

What makes N2KView® Mobile so diverse is its ability to configure your own screens. You have complete control of the number of screens, the layout of each screen, and the size and type of each parameter you wish to display. You customize each display exactly the way you want it. You use N2KView® on a computer to design the screens, and then download them to your smart phone or tablet device.

N2KView® may be downloaded free of charge directly from Google Play to your Android device or directly to an Apple device from the iTunes store. Although the application is a free download, you will need a Maretron Internet Protocol Gateway (IPG100) to get the sensor data onto the vessels Wifi for onboard viewing or onto the Internet for remote viewing (see Maretron Real Time Cloud Service for remote viewing).

Maretron N2KTracker® works together with Maretron Telemetric Cloud Service to allow you to use your Android or iOS smartphone or tablet to observe the position of your vessel as well as view selected vessel operating parameters.

*NOTE: The following are required to interface N2KTracker® to the vessel:

An Internet connection from the vessel
Hardware capable of supporting Maretron Telemetric Cloud Service (see example systems)
Maretron Telemetric Cloud Service subscription

(see http://www.maretron.com/products/telemetricCloudService.php for details).

N2KTracker® shows your boat’s position and recent track on a Google map. It also allows you to create, enable, and disable a geo-fence around your boat’s position so that you or others can be alerted if your boat leaves a specified area, and allows you to enable and disable notifications via e-mail or SMS text message.

N2KTracker® also has a dashboard function so that you can select any data stored on the cloud for viewing, such as engine hours for maintenance tracking, fuel levels for cost management, engine parameters so that you can ensure proper operational procedures are being followed, or bilge pump runtime to ensure your boat will remain safely afloat.

N2KTracker® works equally well whether you have a single boat and want to share your voyage with friends, or if you manage a fleet, allowing you to quickly and easily change the selection of the vessel you are viewing.

The TSM810C is an 8” dedicated touchscreen that includes Maretron’s N2KView® vessel monitoring and control software.

Maretron Real Time Cloud Service allows you to remotely and seamlessly connect to your vessel using N2KView® or N2KView®-Mobile software, so you can monitor and control your vessel from anywhere in the world. As long as there is an Internet connection to the vessel, Maretron's Internet Protocol Gateway (IPG100) will automatically log into Maretron Real Time Cloud Service and the vessel's information will be made available to any remote N2KView® or N2KView® Mobile. Connection between your vessel and remote N2KView® software has never been easier, whether your vessel's Internet connection is via a marina WiFi, satellite connection, GSM or cell phone modem, or any other type of Internet connection, you'll have access to the vessel from anywhere in the world.

Using Maretron Real Time Cloud Service is simple, just imagine receiving an email or text notification from the vessel indicating a problem and you simply log onto the vessel using a smart phone, tablet, or PC. Using Maretron's N2KView® vessel monitoring and control software you get a better understanding of the problem and you can even initiate a corrective action like resetting tripped breakers, turning on auxiliary pumps or lights. Or maybe you just want to adjust the air conditioner or start the ice maker on your way to the boat. Whatever the reason, Maretron Real Time Cloud Service provides you with a seamless connection to your vessel for peace of mind and convenient access from anywhere in the world.

Maretron® Telemetric Cloud Service uses the vessel’s existing Internet connection (cellular, Wi-Fi, satellite, etc.) to broadcast information about the vessel to Maretron’s Cloud Server where the data is stored and subsequently accessed from the shore via a computer, smartphone, or tablet device. Using Maretron's Telemetric Cloud Service allows you to protect your investment through near real-time tracking of your vessel and it allows you to manage the operation of your assets such as scheduling preventive maintenance or optimizing performance such as fuel usage.

The type of data transmitted off the vessel is limited only by the Maretron NMEA 2000® sensors making up the onboard vessel monitoring system. This might be as simple as a single GPS antenna/receiver used for tracking the vessel, or it may include many sensors for monitoring engines, generators, fuel rate, tank levels, batteries, and more. Selecting which data is monitored and how often it is transmitted to the cloud from the vessel is a simple matter using a Maretron touchscreen or black box (TSM800C, TSM1330C, or MBB300C). This gives you the flexibility to decide which information is important and how often it is transmitted while balancing it against your airtime cost. The system has been designed to be extremely efficient for minimizing airtime, plus the system is designed to be very robust for situations where Internet connectivity is intermittent or moving through areas of spotty coverage.

With regards to accessing cloud data from ashore, there are two methods. First, there is a free smartphone/tablet application called N2KTracker®, which is a Google map showing your boat’s current position and its track over the last hour. You can set a geo-fence so if the boat moves outside your programmed circle radius, you’ll get a text message or email notifying you that the vessel is on the move. N2KTracker® also has a dashboard function where you can select any data stored in the cloud for display.

For a more detailed analysis of the data stored in the cloud, Maretron offers a free PC-based software program called N2KExtractor®. N2KExtractor® shows the boat and track on a map for the selected time period, plus it allows you to graph up to four parameters while correlating the data with vessel’s position. Alternatively, N2KExtractor® allows any number of user selected parameters for a user selected time period to be extracted in the form of a spreadsheet file for detailed performance analysis or preventive maintenance.

So if you are looking to protect your investment through vessel tracking, or if you are looking to manage your assets using performance analysis or preventive maintenance, then Maretron Telemetric Cloud Service provides you with ready access to the data you need.
