3 SETTINGS
The NTWB2 can be used straight out of the box in a typical installation without changing any
settings. The NTWB2 settings can be customised to suit particular user requirements through the use
of DIP switches and WiFi parameters can be customised using an NTWB2 Configuration app.
3.1 DIP Switches
Four DIP switches allow for simple selection of various settings. Refer to Figure 1 - DIP Switches for
their location on the NWTB2.
Figure 1 - DIP Switches
Table 1 below shows the DIP switch functions. The values shown with a grey background are the
switch settings from the factory.

3.2 NWTB2 Configuration App
An app for Windows PCs and laptops is available for download from the ‘Downloads’ page of
the Madman Marine website
www.madmanmarine.com/downloads
The app allows the user to set WiFi parameters such as passwords, IP address, WiFi channel
and SSID. It also provides the ability to monitor the NMEA data being received by the NTWB2.
It is not necessary to use the NTWB2 Configuration app if the NTWB2 is to operate in AP
Mode.
The app must be used to set the SSID and password of an existing WiFi network if the NTWB2
is to be operated in Join Mode. Refer to the NTWB2 Configuration app manual for further
details.

Use a small screwdriver or similar object to
move the orange switch levers to the ON or OFF
position as desired. The switches can be
operated at any time but the new setting does
not take effect until the power to the NTWB2 is
cycled.
The baud rate (4800 or 34800) can be set for
Input 2 and for the output.
The WiFi mode can be switched between AP
(Access Point) mode or Join Mode.
The LEDs can be turned off so that they do not
illuminate after the NTWB2 has completed its
power up sequence.
