Important Safety and Warning Information

Please read carefully before use.

When navigating the vessel, use the B&G Zeus system only as a navigational aid. Proper navigation of the vessel is the sole responsibility of the vessel operator.

The electronic chart used by the Zeus System is an aid to navigation only and is designed to supplement, not replace, ofﬁ cial government charts. Only ofﬁ cial government charts supplemented by notices to mariners contain the information required for safe and prudent navigation. Always supplement the electronic information provided by the B&G Zeus with other plotting sources such as observations, depth soundings, radar and hand compass bearings. Should the information not agree, the discrepancy must be resolved before proceeding any further.

Never operate the Zeus in Simulate Mode while you are underway. It is the user’s responsibility to ensure that Simulate Mode is used only in safe situations such as when you are moored in a marina.

The Global Positioning System (GPS) is operated by the US Government which is solely responsible for its operation, accuracy and maintenance. The GPS system is subject to changes which could affect the accuracy and performance of all GPS equipment anywhere in the world.

6 | Introduction

The accuracy of the Echosounder depth display can be limited by many factors, including the type of transducer, the location of the transducer, and water conditions. Ensure that the transducer is installed correctly and the Echosounder is used correctly.

Installing the Display 5.

Mounting location

Choose the mounting locations carefully before you drill or cut. The display should be mounted so that the operator can easily use the controls and clearly see the display screen. Be sure to leave a direct path for all of the cables. The display screen is highcontrast and anti-reflective, and is viewable in direct sunlight, but for best results install the display out of direct sunlight. The chosen location should have minimal glare from windows or bright objects.

Ensure that any holes cut are in a safe position and will not weaken the boat’s structure. If in doubt, consult a qualified boat builder.

At least 100 mm (4”) away from the compass, at least 300 mm (12”) away from any radio transmitter and at least 1.2 m (4 ft) away from any antenna.

Before cutting a hole in a panel, make sure that there are no hidden electrical wires or other parts behind the panel.

Do not mount any part where it can be used as a hand hold, where it might be submerged, or where it will interfere with the operation, launching or retrieving of the boat.

If bracket mounting chose a flat area where the display will not be subjected to excessive vibration.

Leave sufficient clearance space behind the display to connect all relevant cables. Good ventilation is required behind the mounting panel. Poor ventilation may cause the

display to overheat. The display is designed to operate in temperatures from -15° C to +55° C (+5° F to +131° F).

For overall width and height requirements, please see the drawings at the back of this manual.

Installing the Display | 11

Bracket Mount

An alternative to flush mounting the Z8 or Z12 is to bracket mount the unit. This method has the advantage that the display can easily be removed when not in use. The display may be tilted for best possible viewing angle when bracket mounted.

Press the ratchet washers into the 1 bracket.

Temporarily mount the display 3 unit in the bracket and make sure the display can be adjusted to the correct angle without interfering with the surrounding. Allow space for cables attached to the rear of the unit.

Loosely screw securing knobs to the 2 Display unit.

Remove the display unit and use the 4 mounting bracket as a template to mark the ﬁ ve positions of the screw holes.

12 | Installing the Display

Drill a pilot hole for the ﬁ ve screws 5 and an optional hole large enough for the cables to emerge from.

Secure 5 the bracket to the surface6

Connect the cables.7 Slide the display into the mounting 8

bracket and secure in place with the bracket knobs.

Zeus Bezel Removal

Attach the bezel. Firmly clip the 9 front bezel in place.

Protect the dash area adjacent to the top edge (or bottom edge) of the display. Apply upwards pressure on the bezel (A), this will create an opening between the

bezel and the case. Insert a medium size ﬂ at blade screw driver into the gap (B) Slide the screw driver along the gap to release the clips along the top. Continue down the side until the bezel releases. The same routine can be applied to the bottom edge if accessible.

System Architecture 6.

This section explains how the Zeus connects to other devices as part of a system. The Zeus has a highly scalable system architecture. A system can consist of a basic stand alone chart plotter, or expand to a networked, multi-display system connected to a wide range of accessories.

The system architecture is modular with a wide range of peripherals and accessories that can be connected to SimNet or NMEA2000 devices such as instrument systems, AIS, GPS and heading sensor to Ethernet devices such as Radar and Echosounder. For multi display installations the system can be set up to be truly masterless, i.e. have no dependency on other displays being powered on.

A Zeus display can connect to other devices in the system by Ethernet, SimNet / NMEA2000 or NMEA0183.

A system can have:

between one and six displays, the displays can be any mix of Z8 and Z12 • one or two radars • one echosounder • one StructureScan •

Networking, Data Interfacing

The Zeus system can use four data protocols. SimNet (NMEA2000), Ethernet, NMEA0183. and H-Link.

SimNet / NMEA 2000

SimNet is a proprietary CAN bus network for transfer of navigation data such as wind, • Position, AIS, etc between all SimNet or NMEA2000 devices on a SimNet/NMEA2000 network.

SimNet is lower bandwidth than the Ethernet network, but is 50 times faster than • NMEA0183

Ethernet: (NETWORK ports)

Zeus uses an Ethernet network for the transfer of high bandwidth data between other • Zeus displays and from network modules such as Radar, Echosounder and Weather module

Each Zeus display has three Ethernet network ports. An optional 5 port expansion • port is available. (Recommended for multiple Zeus displays)

Ethernet does not transfer navigation data such as position, heading etc. This is • handled either by SimNet and or NMEA 0183. However navigation and display settings are synchronized over Ethernet

NMEA0183

NMEA0183 is a point to point connection. Each Zeus display has one NMEA0183 port • using RS422 protocol. Each display can output to one NMEA0183 “Listener” and receive from one NMEA0183 “Talker”.

14 | System Architecture

B&G H-Link

H-Link is B&G’s protocol for comprehensive and efficient interfacing of the B&G H3000 • processor range with the Zeus chartplotters and external PC navigation programs.

H-Link Communications are available with Zeus via USB cable. •

Data Bridging

Supported NMEA0183 sentences entering the system are bridged (converted) to • SimNet/NMEA2000 and distributed on the SimNet backbone for all other displays to use

Certain SimNet /NMEA2000 PGNs (messages/sentences) are bridged across to • NMEA0183 to be available as an output from any Zeus display

Ethernet to SimNet. Limited data is bridged from the Ethernet echosounder. Speed, • depth and temperature are bridged to SimNet and NMEA0183. Depth, speed and temperature data from the echosounder is the only data bridged from Ethernet

Example of Data Bridging

A In this example a NMEA0183 (talker) is connected to DISPLAY 1 B The NMEA sentences are bridged across to SimNet and distributed on the

SimNet network

C The NMEA0183 listener connected to DISPLAY 2 can receive the NMEA0183

sentences from the device connected to DISPLAY 1 and also from other devices that are on the SimNet network

An NMEA talker can be connected to each Zeus display and both set of data will be converted to SimNet. Each display can be setup for outputting selected NMEA sentences.

Speed, temp and depth data from the echosounder transducer that is to be displayed as an instrument has to bridged from ethernet to SimNet. A Zeus display has to be nominated to bridge the data. If this nominated display is turned off, no data will be displayed, until the display is turned on or another display is selected to bridge the data (see Source Selection).

NMEA0183 to SimNet bridging only applies to the NMEA0183 sentences outlined in the Supported NMEA0183 Sentences section of this manual.
