1 Introduction
Congratulations on your purchase of the Maretron USB100 NMEA 2000® / NMEA 0183
Gateway. Maretron has designed and built your gateway to the highest standards for years of
dependable and accurate service.
Maretron’s USB100 is a gateway for bridging USB equipment using NMEA 0183 sentences –
such as an on-board computer running navigational software – with an NMEA 2000® network.
The gateway automatically converts incoming NMEA 2000® messages (referred to as PGNs)
to NMEA 0183 sentences so you can continue benefiting from navigational and charting
software that you already own while enjoying the many benefits of networked NMEA 2000®
instruments. The USB100 also converts navigational NMEA 0183 sentences (RMB, BOD)
originating from charting systems into corresponding NMEA 2000® navigation PGNs so you
can display rolling road information on NMEA 2000® display products such as the Maretron
DSM200.
The Maretron USB100 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, and maintained in the correct manner. Please read carefully and follow
these instructions for installation, configuration, and usage of the Maretron USB100 in order to
ensure optimal performance.

2.1 Unpacking the Box
When unpacking the box containing the Maretron USB100, you should find the following items:
1 – USB100 NMEA 2000® to NMEA 0183 Gateway
4 – Mounting Screws
1 – USB100 Driver / Support Software CD

If any of these items are missing or damaged, please contact Maretron.
2.2 Software Installation
In order to use the USB100 with a PC running Microsoft Windows 2000 or Microsoft Windows
XP, you must first install the software on the provided “USB100 Driver / Support Software CD”.
To begin, insert the CD into your CD-ROM drive. If you have AutoPlay enabled for the CD-
ROM drive, the installation program will start automatically; otherwise, open the CD-ROM drive
in Windows Explorer and execute the “setup.exe” file in the root folder of the CD-ROM drive.
Once started, the GWUtilities setup program will display the following screen. Click the button
marked “Next” to continue the installation of the software.

The next screen gives you the opportunity to specify the installation directory for the
GWUtilities program. The default selection should be acceptable for most installations. If
desired, select a different installation directory. Finally, click the button marked “Next” to
continue the installation process.
The next screen allows you the opportunity to change the name of the Start Menu folder into
which program shortcuts are installed. If desired, specify a new Start Menu folder name and
click the button marked “Next” to continue; otherwise, simply click the button marked “Next” to
accept the default choice and continue the software installation.

The following screen allows you the opportunity to create an icon for the GWUtilities program
on your desktop or in the Quick Launch bar. If you wish, select one or both of these options.
Then, click the button marked “Next” to continue.
Now, a screen appears allowing you to confirm the installation options you have selected and
initiate the installation process. If you wish to change any of these options, click the button
marked “Back”. If you are satisfied with the options you have selected, click the button marked
“Install” to begin the installation process.

You will now see status screens that indicate the progress of the installation. After the
installation is complete, a screen appears which indicates successful completion of the
installation. Click the “Finish” button to complete the installation process.
2.3 Choosing a Mounting Location
The USB100 can be mounted in any location and in any orientation; however, the mounting
location should be close to the location of the computer. The maximum legal length of a USB
cable is 5 meters (16’ 5”) so the USB100 should be mounted within this distance of the
computer. If the distance between the USB100 and the computer is greater than 5 meters, a
USB hub or USB extender must be used.

fasteners as shown in Figure 1 below.
Figure 1 – Mounting the USB100
2.5 Connecting the USB100
