1 General
1.1 Introduction
Congratulations on your purchase of the Maretron TSM800C Vessel Monitoring and Control
Touchscreen. Maretron has designed and built your display to the highest standards for years of
dependable and accurate service.
The TSM800C is an 8” dedicated touchscreen that includes Maretron’s N2KView® vessel monitoring
and control software. The N2KView® software allows you to configure as many favorite screens as
you want with exactly the information you want to see. The TSM800C provides an extremely simple
touch interface for monitoring and controlling critical systems from anywhere on the vessel.
The TSM800C is ruggedized for marine use and includes a solid state disk drive to withstand the
pounding associated with waves. And since the TSM800C only dissipates 20 watts, there is no need
for internal cooling fans that are noisy and wear out causing electronics to overheat and fail. The
TSM800C can be mounted outside given the high bright screen and waterproof front.
As an alternative to controlling the TSM800C through the touch screen, the TSM800C includes two
USB ports for connecting keyboards, mice, or trackballs. The TSM800C also has an Ethernet port for
connecting Internet Protocol (IP) cameras for viewing within the N2KView® software. Lastly, the
TSM800C contains two completely isolated CAN bus connectors (M12) for easy connection to single
or redundant NMEA 2000® networks.
The Maretron TSM800C is designed to operate within the harsh demands of the marine environment.
However, no piece of marine electronic equipment can function properly unless installed, configured,

NOTE
Although the TSM800C looks similar to the former TSM800 product, there are
important differences. The TSM800C is a standalone NMEA 2000® display, with the
following features:
The TSM800C includes two CAN interfaces for direct connection to one or
two NMEA 2000® networks.
The TSM800C includes all N2KView® capabilities that were formerly
licensed separately in the TSM800: Alerts, Control, Fuel Management, and
Video. No gateways (such as the IPG100), hardware license keys, or
additional software licenses are needed.
You don’t need to connect or configure LAN connections, unless you are
using Video or E-mail alert actions.
N2KView® configurations are transferred to and from other N2KView®
devices using a USB flash drive plugged into one of the TSM800C’s USB
ports.

and maintained in the correct manner. Please read carefully and follow these instructions for
installation, configuration, and usage of the Maretron TSM800C in order to ensure optimal
performance.
1.2 Firmware Revision
This manual corresponds to the TSM800C running N2KView® Version 4.0.2.
1.3 TSM800C Features
The Maretron TSM800C has the following features:
8” TFT LCD Panel, LED Backlit
Widescreen Aspect Ratio 5:3
800 x 480 Pixels
600 nits Brightness (Optically Bonded)
Solid State Disk Drive
Fanless Cooling System
Flush mounting hardware included
Optional VESA mounting capability
All N2KView licenses included
2 isolated NMEA 2000® connectors for direct connection to single or dual NMEA 2000®
networks
1.4 Quick Install
Installing the Maretron TSM800C display involves the following five steps. Please refer to the
individual sections for additional details.

2 Installation
2.1 Unpacking the Box
When unpacking the box containing the Maretron TSM800C, you should find the following items:
1 – TSM800C 8” Vessel Monitoring and Control Touchscreen
1 – TSM800C User’s Manual
1 – N2KView® Documentation CD-ROM
1 – 1m USB Cable with Waterproof Bulkhead Connector
1 – Warranty Registration Card
If any of these items are missing or damaged, please contact Maretron.
2.2 Choosing a Mounting Location
The TSM800C front panel is splash proof (IEC IP66 rating – protected against the effects of powerful
water jets), while the rear of the TSM800C is drip proof (IEC IP22 rating – protected against the
Page 4 Revision 1.0
effects of dripping water when tilted up to 15°). The TSM800C may be mounted either in an indoor or
outdoor location.
Adequate ventilation is a necessary prerequisite for the life of the product. The air inlet and outlet
openings must definitely be kept clear; coverings which restrict ventilation are not permissible.
Generally, do not install the unit in a horizontal position (laying down), as this will cause heat to build
up inside the unit which will damage the LCD Panel. To prevent this problem, we recommend
installing the unit in a vertical position (±30 degrees) to improve the airflow through the unit.
To further improve the cooling of the unit, we recommend installing Cooling Fans underneath blowing
upwards into the unit air inlet. This may be required in high temperature applications and also when
there is reason to expect temperature problems due to non-optimal way of mounting.
Exposure to extreme direct sunlight can cause a considerable increase in the temperature of the unit,
and might under certain circumstances lead to overtemperature. This point should already be taken
into consideration when the bridge equipment is being planned (sun shades, distance from the
windows, ventilation, etc.).
Space necessary for ventilation, for cable inlets, for the operating procedures and for maintenance,
must be provided.
Proper strain relieve should be installed on cables attached to the TSM800C so that cable breaks will
not occur, e.g. during service work.
Do not paint the product. The surface treatment influences on the excess heat transfer. Painting,
labels or other surface treatments that differ from the factory default, might cause overheating.
Expose to heavy vibration and acoustic noise might under certain circumstances affect functionality
and expected lifetime. This must be considered during system assembly and installation. Mounting
position must carefully be selected to avoid any exposure of amplified vibration.
2.3 Mounting the TSM800C
The TSM800C has two mounting options, which include:
Wall/Panel mounting
Arm mounting (requires purchase of a VESA 75mm mounting arm)
2.3.1 Mounting Considerations
The useful life of the components of all Electronics Units generally decreases with increasing ambient
temperature; it is therefore advisable to install such units in air-conditioned rooms. If there are no
such facilities, these rooms must at least be dry, adequately ventilated and kept at a suitable
temperature in order to prevent the formation of condensation inside the display unit.
Since the TSM800C is fanless, cooling takes place via the surface of the casing. The cooling must
not be impaired by partial covering of the unit or by installation of the unit in a confined cabinet.
