Hi guys,
what kind of radars can be connected through network hub to the computer and are compatible with MaxSea TimeZero?
Why I ask:
I installed to board computer MaxSea TimeZero software, to use it as chartplotter, inside the boat.
On flybridge I had installed chartplotter 1824C/NT which is connected together with computer and sounder through network hub (ethernet).
The computer receives data from chartplotter about position, and data from sounder.
Chartplotter have connected Furuno radar, that was together with him as "set".
Unfortunately, MaxSea TimeZero sees the radar, but can not control and receive any radar data. But chartplotter of course, without problems.
This is comparability issue between TZ and NavNet vx2, as they said in furuno, no way to resolve that.
To have NavNet vx2 radar working on computer, only way to use MaxSea Classic software which is almost discontinued product, and so very old. Also I read somewhere about some comparability problems with OS Windows 7 and newer, so I don't wanna to use it.
The radar required only in case you located inside of the boat, in no-good weather conditions only, so it's more important to have a working radar here, than on flybridge (you will not drive from there in fog, right?).
I decided to remove my current radar, and purchase a new one, which can be used with computer, desirable with overlay in TZ (I have compass).
I found that Nobeltec radars are working directly with their software (very similar), but can someone tell me if it sure will work with MaxSea TZ too?
Exist some other radars which can be used this way?
Thank you!
