You can use the DSM250 to configure other remotely-located DSM150 and DSM250 units by using the Remote DSM150/DSM250 configuration menu as shown in below. This describes the configuration of the Maretron DSM150/DSM250 firmware version 1.4.16. There are three configurable items for the remote DSM150/DSM250: “Remote Device Selection…”, “Copy device selection from local display”, and “Copy favorite settings from local display”.

6.8.1 Remote Device Selection

A DSM250 unit can be used to configure a remote DSM150/DSM250 to set which NMEA 2000® devices are selected for display on the remote DSM150/DSM250 unit. In this manner, multiple devices of the same type may be used on a NMEA 2000® network in a fail-safe configuration. For example, a certain compass unit may be selected from several available compasses for display on the remote DSM150/DSM250. The Remote DSM150/DSM250 Device Selection Menu for an example network configuration can be seen in below.

WARNING: Do not select multiple devices of the same type for display. This will result in multiple and possibly conflicting readings.
