B&G has released its
new Zeus multifunction displays and Broadband Radar.
Bringing the benefits of
B&G race performance to cruising sailors in an easy-to-use format, Zeus has
been designed as a fully-integrated, high-performance navigation system with
bright, sunlight viewable displays and features unique and dedicated sailing
functions.
Available in 20.3cm (8")
and 30.5cm (12") LED-backlit displays, the new high-specification B&G Z8
and Z12 displays come packed with a number of impressive features specific to
sailing navigation, including GRIB weather file display and animation, chart
overlays displaying sailing laylines and WindPlot and TimePlot histograms.
B&G Zeus incorporates
Navionics coastal cartography as standard, with the ability to add Navionics
Platinum+ with high-resolution aerial photography and Turboview 3D imagery.
The Zeus units are easy
to install and use, straight out of the box. With the rotary controller and
alphanumeric keypad, the control of menus and functions is simple and
intuitive.
The powerful Zeus system
integrates seamlessly with data from B&G H3000 instruments, GPS, radar and
AIS. Furthermore, award-winning Broadband Radar technology has been integrated
with the new B&G system, along with the new B&G ZG50 High Speed 5Hz GPS
antenna.
The Z8 and Z12 displays
also integrate with a range of other approved Ethernet, SimNet and NMEA2000
devices, such as the new SonicHub audio server for onboard entertainment, the
Broadband Sounder Module and the ground-breaking StructureScan Sonar Imaging
technology, which is ideal for finding safe anchorages and knowing what lies
below the keel.
Using innovative C-Zone
digital switching technology, it is also possible to control and monitor almost
any system on the boat from the Zeus display. Lights, bilge pumps and tank
levels are among the functions that can be operated, monitored and adjusted at
the touch of a button.
