1. NavNet 3D System
Q1.SYS How many NavNet 3D MFDs are allowed in one network?
Any combination of up to 10 (ten) MFDs are allowed in one Network. However, the actual number of displays in the system may be higher if MFDBBs are installed using “Clone” or “Extended” Display Mode. More information about the Clone and Extended Modes for the MFDBB can be found in this document
Q2.SYS Can I connect multiple position, depth and other data sensors to the
system?
Multiple sensors of the same or different kinds (i.e. two GPS Sensors) may be connected to any NN3D network for backup purposes. When multiple sensors providing independent but redundant data are connected, the installer will have to define the primary sensor at the Master MFD during installation. Primary sensor selections are global settings, as they will be used and displayed by all NN3D MFDs in a network. All other sensors providing the redundant information will be used as “Back-Up” sensors. NN3D will automatically “Switch” and utili ze these back-up sensors in the event that a failure occurs with the primary sensor.
Q3.SYS How many Digital Radar Sensors (DRS) can be installed in one network?
Up to 2 (two) DRS can be installed and controlled in one network.
Q4.SYS How many Fish Finders can be installed in one network?
Up to two Network Fish Finders can be installed and controlled in one NN3D network. For example, both a DFF1 and DFF3 may be installed on one vessel and the operator may select which one to be enabled as the echo sounder source . This allows the vessel to change geographic regions and instantly select the optimal echo sounder source for a particular fishery.
Q5.SYS What is the NavNet 3D memory capacity?
All NN3D MFDs and Black Box systems have a ruggedized, shock resistant internal Hard Disk Drive (HDD) with 40 Gigabytes of memory storage capacity.
Q6.SYS Does MFD have a capability to convert NMEA2000<-->NMEA0183?
The NMEA0183 sentences and NMEA2000 PGNs that are used and accepted in the system can be converted and output with either/both NMEA0183/NMEA2000 format (except for the engine data that is input only). Note that only one type of data can be output at a time (one posi tio n, on e depth, one heading…). In case of multiple GPS, the position which is output i s th e o ne currently used by the display.
Q7.SYS Can Engine Data be displayed on MFD?
Yes, certain engine data (up to three engines) in NMEA2000 format is compatible and may be displayed on any NN3D MFD in the Network. The currently accepted engine data is as follows:
Engine Speed (Revolutions) (PGN 127488) Engine Boost Pressure (PGN 127488) Engine Oil Pressure (PGN 127489) Engine Temperature (PGN 127489) Engine Temperature Status (PGN 127489) Engine Warning Status (PGN 127489)

Q8.SYS What is the purpose of Audio In/Out?
An analog speaker can be connected to any MFD/MFDBB (for Alarm). Audio Input is provided for future applications.
Q9.SYS What is shared in the network?
The NN3D was designed as a network system. Radar, Sounder , IP C amera, Poi nt s, Routes, Tracks, Navigation Data, and System Settings are all shared via Ethernet on the NN3D network.
Please note that the Charts are not shared across the network and need to be installed on the Internal Memory of every MFD.
Q10.SYS What is the difference between MFD12 and DCU12?
The MFD12 is a NN3D 12” multi-function display/processor unit, while the DCU12 is an optional integrated 12” display and MFD BB Keyboard – essentially it is a 12” display and keyboard without its own processor. The DCU12 is a suitable option for those wishing to use the advanced features of the MFDBB with a display-ba se d keyboard. NavNet MFDBB Systems offer some unique features not available on the MFD8 and MFD12 such as a TimeZero Radar image, faster chart zoom performance, multiple USB 2.0 ports, selectable video resolutions, etc...

Q11.SYS Which combination of MFD+DRS requires the Power Supply Unit?
Power for the Digital Radar Sensor is suppli ed by MFD. Some combinations require the additional Power Supply Unit in order to provide enough power for the DRS.

2. NavNet 3D Connections
Q1.CON Can I connect a USB mouse?
Yes. A generic USB mouse may be connected to any NN3D MFD. Virtuall y any "o ff the shelf" USB mouse (wired or RF wireless but NOT Bluetooth) will work with NN3D. However , in order to util ize ful l RotoKey functi onality, you will need a mouse that has a scroll wheel that is also "clickable" wi th a middl e click, which will em ulate selection and confirmation of a desired RotoKey function. No loading of addi tio n al mouse software (driver) is permitted. However, the standard Mouse HID drivers will load automatically, allowing most mice and wireless mice to work fine. .
Q2.CON What is Power Synchronization?
A NN3D network is a system in which all components share information (navigation data, settings, points, routes, etc) with each other. To allow proper network synchronization and functionality, the MFDs have a special “sleep mode” that allows each MFD to process data while co nsuming low power. NN3D MFDs can be in 3 states:
[ON]
This is the regular mode of operation. The screen is ON and the user can interact with the device. The unit can process and share informati on on the networ k.
[Sleep Mode] The screen is off and no user interaction is possible (except turning the unit ON with the Power Key). Even though the MFD seems to be turned off, it will still process and share information with other MFDs on the network. The MFD consumes lower current in this state. Any sensors attached to the MFD data ports will still function normally.
[OFF]
The unit is completely OFF and don’t process information. No power is consumed in this state
Sleep Mode Functional Description: power key), all the other networked MFD(s) automatically start in sleep mode. Using the Power key on an MFD in sleep mode will turn it ON. Using the Power key
on any MFD that is turned “ON” will turn the system (all the MFDs) compl etely OFF. If you want to turn a MFD back in sleep mode (afte r he has been powered ON ), use the RotoKey “Sleep”
IMPORTANT: Full Power Synchronization functionality requires the use of Furuno proprietary Hubs. The Internal MFDBB Hub and the optional Furuno HUB101 both provide NN3D full Power Synchronization functionality. Use of other generic Ethernet Hubs/Switches, while allowed, will not allow the MFDs to power ON automatically! Caution must also be used in that only “Two Pair” Ethernet cables may be utilized with generic hubs/switches so that the Power Synchronization signal are not short circuited by “Four Pair” Ethernet cables.
When the first MFD is powered ON (using the
Q3.CON Can I connect non-Furuno devices to the HUB101 (PC, Sensor…)?
The Furuno HUB101 has a dipswitch for each Ethernet port that can enable/disable the Power Synchronizati on. When connected t o an MFD, th e switch must be setup to allow the Power Synchronization. When connected to any other device (PC, old generation sensors…) the switch MUST be setup to disable the Power Synchronization to protect other devices (such as PC) from the Power

Synchronization signal. Here is a list of all devices that support the Power Synchronization:
- All NN3D Display: MFD8, MFD12, MFDBB and DCU12
- All NN3D Radar Power Supply: PSU-012 and PSU-13
- Sounder: DFF1 and DFF3
Q4.CON Can a standard Ethernet Switch be used for NavNet 3D?
Yes, a 100Mbps Switch can be used. In this case, “2-pair” Ethernet cable must be used between each MFD and the generic Ethernet Switch so that the Furuno Power Synchronization signal does not interfere with or harm the Ethernet Switch.
Failure to do so could damage the switch and any other components connected to it. Note that when a regular switch is used, the Power Synchronization will not fully work. The use of the Furuno Hub is strongly advised. It wil l all o w power synchronization on the network and protect your equipment such as PC when regular CAT6 (4 pair Ethernet) cable is used.
Q5.CON How is the BB Keyboard Control Unit (MCU-001) connected to the BB
Processor?
The BB Keyboard is an Ethernet Network Device that is powered directly from the MFDBB via the Ethernet Cable. This is NOT true Power-Over-Ethernet (POE). Standard POE Devices may NOT be directly connected or powered by the internal hub in the MFDBB. Direct connection of the BB Keyboard to the MFDBB allows an easy single standard Ethernet cable connection to the MFDBB Keyboard. The MFDBB Processor Unit (MPU001) contains 4 Ethernet ports. Two of these ports provide special power and are dedicat ed ON LY for MFDBB Keyboard connections. MFDBB Keyboards must be directly connected to one of the dedicated Ethernet ports on the MFDBB (the Keyboard cannot be connected to a Switch). Note that the supplied Ethernet cable is 5M but other lengths are available.
Q6.CON Is it possible to connect dual monitors and dual control heads to an
MFDBB?
Yes, the following BB MFD installation configurations are poss ible.
