 ====== Furuno MFD Integration ====== ====== Furuno MFD Integration ======
  
-===== 1. Introduction ===== +Moved to: https://www.victronenergy.com/media/pg/Cerbo_GX/en/marine-mfd-integration-by-app.html#UUID-0e93850d-da2f-8bd9-9ce6-cc2546605459
- +
-This document explains how to connect to Furuno MFDs using an Ethernet connection. +
- +
-Make sure to also study the [[https://www.victronenergy.com/live/ccgx:start#marine_mfd_integration_by_app|Marine MFD Integration by App chapter in the manual]]. +
- +
-Note that there is an alternative method to connect, which is NMEA2000. See the [[https://www.victronenergy.com/live/ccgx:start#marine_mfd_integration_by_nmea_2000|NMEA2000 chapter in the main manual]]. Currently Furuno MFDs only have support for fluid level PGNs sent out by Victron equipment. +
- +
-===== 2. Compatibility ===== +
- +
-The MFD integration is compatible with the following Furuno MFDs: +
-  * NavNet TZtouch3 TZT12F +
-  * NavNet TZtouch3 TZT16F +
-  * NavNet TZtouch3 TZT19F +
-  * Navnet TZtouch2 TZT2BB Black box +
-  * NavNet TZtouchXL TZT22X +
-  * NavNet TZtouchXL TZT24X +
- +
-NavNet TZtouch3 MFDs need at least software version v1.08. The Navnet TZtouch2 TZT2BB needs at least software version v7.01. +
- +
-Note that the Navnet TZtouch2 TZT**L** models are **not** supported. +
- +
-From Victron side, all GX devices (Cerbo GX, CCGX, Venus GX, and so forth) can be used and are compatible. For details on detailed product compatibility with regarding to inverter/chargers and other components, see the [[https://www.victronenergy.com/live/ccgx:start#marine_mfd_integration_by_app|main Marine MFD App chapter in the GX Manual]]. +
- +
-===== 3. Wiring ===== +
- +
-The Furuno device needs to be connected to the [[venus-os:start|GX device]] using Ethernet. Its not possible to connect over WiFi. For the Ethernet connection, a standard Ethernet cable can be used. The GX device can either be connected directly to the MFD or through a network router/switch. +
- +
-===== 4. Configuration ===== +
- +
-==== 4.1 Ethernet configuration ==== +
-On the Victron GX Device, make sure that the Ethernet cable is connected and go to //Settings -> Ethernet//, and set the following configuration: +
-^ Setting          ^ Value                                                   ^ +
-| IP Configuration | Manual                                                  | +
-| IP address       | 172.31.201.12                                           | +
-| Netmask          | 255.255.0.0                                             | +
-| Gateway          | 0.0.0.0 or the IP address of the router in your network | +
-| DNS server       | 0.0.0.0 or the IP address of the router in your network | +
-{{:venus-os:furuno-ip-config.png?400|}} +
- +
-It is possible to connect a router to the same LAN; and that way connect the GX Device to the internet. Make sure the //Gateway// and //DNS Server// settings of the GX are set to the IP address of the router, and that the router has its LAN IP addressing configured in the same subnet. +
- +
-:!: It is not possible to use a [[https://www.victronenergy.com/accessories/gx-gsm|GX GSM]]. +
-==== 4.2 Services configuration ==== +
-On the Victron GX Device, go to //Settings -> Services//, and there enable both //MQTT on LAN (SSL)// and //MQTT on LAN (Plaintext)//+
-{{:venus-os:venus-html5-mqtt.png?400|}} +
- +
-Next, go to Menu → Settings → System Setup → Battery Measurements. And there set up what batteries you want to see on the MFD; and by what name. +
- +

-===== 5. Configuring Multiple Battery Monitors ===== +
- +
-{{youtube>0Mrk5Q4izvg}} +
- +
-===== 6. NMEA 2000 ===== +
- +
-The MFD can also be connected to the Victron system using NMEA 2000, see the [[ve.can:nmea-2000:start|]]. +
- +
-This chapter documents the specifics when displaying Victron NMEA 2000 information on a Furuno MFDs. Note that this is not meant to be an extensive guide. Its the simple result of our R&D checking everything on a Furuno MFD. The functionality is (mostly) dictated by Furuno software and may therefore also change and improve when Furuno company changes their software. +
- +
-The MFD can be configured easily to display the data from the GX device. To display tank data, there is no need to change any instance. \\ +
-In order to properly display battery/DC data from Victron equipment, you need to change the data instances of the PGNs that are sent out. See here for how to do that: [[https://www.victronenergy.com/live/ve.can:changing_nmea2000_instances|Changing NMEA2000 Instances]], section Data instances. +
- +
-To view NMEA 2000 devices on the MFD, go to //Settings > Initial Setup > Data Aquisition > Sensor List//. Here you can view basic information and change device instances and custom names. +
- +
-The following Victron PGNs are supported: +
-  * 127505 - Fluid level (tanks) +
-  * 127506 - DC Detailed Status (limited support); State-of-charge, Time-to-go <sup>(1)</sup> +
-  * 127508 - Battery Status (limited support); Voltage, Current <sup>(1, 2)</sup> +
- +
-**Notes** +
-  - The tested Furuno MFD firmware supports a maximum of 4 batteries, no more +
-  - Due to a bug in the MFD firmware, a negative battery current (ie. when discharging) is shown as ''- - -'' (three dashes) +
