   * NavNet TZtouch3 TZT16F
   * NavNet TZtouch3 TZT19F
   * Navnet TZtouch2 TZT2BB Black box
-NavNet TZtouch3 MFDs need at least software version v1.08. The Navnet TZtouch2 TZT2BB needs at least software version v7.
+  * 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]].

 ===== 6. NMEA 2000 =====
-The MFD can also be connected to the GX device using NMEA 2000, see [[https://www.victronenergy.com/live/ccgx:start#marine_mfd_integration_by_nmea_2000|NMEA2000 chapter in the main manual]]. However, there is only limited support for NMEA 2000 PGNs sent from Victron equipment.
+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.
-The MFD can be configured easily to display the data from the GX device. There is no need to change any instance.
 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
+  * 127506 - DC Detailed Status (limited support); State-of-charge, Time-to-go <sup>(1)</sup>
-  * 127508 - Battery Status (limited support); Voltage, Current
+  * 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)
