Furuno TZT14 - CAN Bus;Nmea0183 Data Conversion and CAN Bus Bridging

DVI-D (external monitor)
A DVI monitor can be connected to the TZT9/14 to repeat the screen at a remote lo-
cation. The plug is DVI-D format and only a DVI monitor with VESA DDC (Display Data
Channel) can be connected. The TZT9/14 uses the monitor information (EDID) given
via DDC to output the video data with the appropriate resolution. (The TZT14 has an
1280x800 (WXGA) DVI-D output and the TZT9 has an 800x480 (WVGA) DVI-D out-
put.) Furuno offers two lengths of DVI cables, 5 m and 10 m.
Note: Use an external monitor that has the same aspect ratio as your equipment
(TZT9: 5:3, TZT14: 16:10) to show the picture with proper size.
USB port
The TZT9/14 has one USB Ver. 2.0 port. This USB port can be used to connect a ge-
neric USB Touch Screen (compatible with Windows
®
7 HID generic driver).
Audio
Outputs the audio line from the left-hand connector (Audio In is reserved for future de-
velopment).
2.2 CAN bus/NMEA0183 Data Conversion and CAN
bus Bridging
2.2.1 CAN bus networks/backbone
All DRS radar sensors have one CAN bus port (Terminal Block connector). You can
directly Furuno CAN bus sensors to the DRS radar without having to run another CAN
bus cable up the mast. In this case, each separate CAN bus network (the DRS CAN
bus and the ship CAN bus) will be “Bridged” together via the Ether Network. Note that
the TZT9/14 and DRS CAN bus ports must not be connected together.
Connection of multiple TZTs, no DRS radar sensor
Connect multiple TZTs with Ethernet and CAN bus cables.
