Maretron SMS Text Module - North America

Maretron's SMS200 SMS Text Module is a reliable cellular modem designed specifically for vessel monitoring. It seamlessly integrates with your boat's NMEA 2000® network, providing real-time text message notifications directly to your phone. Stay informed about critical conditions on board, no matter where you are, with the SMS200.

Key Features

• IP67 Protection - Durable and waterproof, ensuring reliable performance in harsh marine environments.
• Programmable Alerts - Automatically trigger text messages for alarms or warnings from Maretron-installed displays and sensors.
• Pre-Installed SIM Card - Enjoy unlimited text messaging within the covered region with a pre-installed SIM card (user activation and monthly subscription required).

Seamless Integration with Maretron Systems

The SMS200 works in tandem with Maretron's dedicated displays, including DSM Series Displays and N2KView® based software. Whether you're using the MBB Series Black Box, TSM Series Touchscreen Displays, or a PC, you can define programmable alert conditions from sensors connected to your NMEA 2000® network. When an alert condition is met, the DSM Displays or N2KView® software instructs the SMS200 to connect to the cellular network and send a text message to your selected phone numbers.

Real-Time Monitoring and Alerts

Stay updated on essential vessel parameters with SMS200's real-time notifications. Whether it's high bilge water, low battery voltage, unplugged shore power, or an opened hatch or door, the SMS200 ensures you receive timely alerts wherever there is cellular network coverage.

Two-Way Communication Capabilities

Enhance your vessel's monitoring system by sending text messages directly to the SMS200. With the appropriate sensors installed, the module can respond with comprehensive status information, including:

• Vessel’s Position
• Bilge Status
• Battery Voltage
• Shore Power Voltage
• Wind Speed
• Inside Temperature
• Outside Temperature

Additionally, N2KView® can be configured to respond to more complex queries, allowing you to request virtually any NMEA 2000 parameter. Customize command strings and response messages, with dynamic parameter values, to suit your specific monitoring needs.
