1  Introduction 
Congratulations on your purchase of the Maretron Run Indicator Module (RIM100).  Maretron 
has designed and built your RIM100 to the highest standards for years of dependable and 
accurate service.  
 
Maretron’s RIM100 monitors both AC and DC electrical circuits and reports, over an NMEA 
2000
®
 network, whether or not the electrical circuit is energized and running. The RIM100 
works equally as well for monitoring manually switched loads (e.g., running lights, anchor 
lights, or deck lights) as it does for automatically switched loads. Monitoring automatically 
switched loads (e.g., bilge pumps, engine exhaust/intake fans, and transfer pumps) via the 
RIM100 is especially useful because you know exactly when equipment is, or isn't running. 
 
The Maretron RIM100 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 RIM100 in order to 
ensure optimal performance.
