Furuno FCV 295 & FCV 1150 compatibility with TZ Professional
Nobeltech has now released new software that allows you determine bottom hardness for units FCV-295 and FCV-1150.
We are pleased to announce the compatibility of the Furuno FCV 295 & FCV 1150 with TZ Professional and their Bottom hardness module. Thanks to this new feature it will now be possible to record sedimentology information from both these sounder models. Bottom hardness requires Firmware Version 2.05 on the FCV295 and 4.03 on the FCV1150.
Please note that you can see what firmware version is on the sounder at startup. To upgrade the sounder firmware, please contact us here at the shop for more information

ZOLEO users and check-in recipients will be able to use the free ZOLEO Mobile App to view the current location and breadcrumb trail on a map. ZOLEO users can start/stop location sharing any time, and download maps for use offline.
CLS Vessel Monitoring System
A fishing vessel monitoring system (VMS) is a cost-effective tool for the successful monitoring, control and surveillance (MCS) of fisheries activities. VMS provides a fishery management agency with accurate and timely information about the location and activity of regulated fishing vessels.
A fishing vessel monitoring system (VMS) is a cost-effective tool for the successful monitoring, control and surveillance (MCS) of fisheries activities. VMS provides a fishery management agency with accurate and timely information about the location and activity of regulated fishing vessels. The VMS consists of equipment that tracks a vessel’s geographic position through a satellite communication system. A VMS transceiver unit is installed aboard the vessel that communicates via a satellite to a processing center.
Now that you are acquainted with what VMS is we'd like to talk to you about the CLS VMS. CLS is a company that has been on the forefront of VMS for over 20 years. CLS VMS make compliance with regulations easy with a robust range of transponders that provide guaranteed secure data transmission. Cost effective satellite communication services and user friendly tracking visualization.
For those Fisherman looking to install VMS on their vessel we recommend ordering the CLS VMS which can be done right here at A.C.E. Why choose ACE to order? ACE has over over 40 plus years of experience in the Marine Electronics industry. Not only will we order this system but also help with installation.

TZ NAVIGATION SOFTWARE
TZ Professional software has been designed to answer the navigation needs and requirements of all professional seafarers. With features that are truly cutting-edge, TIMEZERO software has two main objectives: Supreme control and performance.
WASSP G3 FOR TZ PROFESSIONAL
WASSP (Wide Angle Sonar Seafloor Profiler) Generation 3 multi-beam CHIRP Sonar, a groundbreaking new system that allows you to simultaneously view and record bathymetry and seafloor hardness, find fish targets, and utilize true multi-beam sonar technology to discover wrecks and structures and more.
SCX20 SATELLITE COMPASS
The SCX20 (NMEA2000) and SCX21 (NMEA0183) Satellite Compasses are built using a quad-antenna design, configured in a manner that creates six unique baselines from which to calculate accurate heading information to within 1°. This unique design also reduces loss of signal, such as when going under bridges, and also greatly reduces multipath interference. The compact size, flexible mounting capabilities and very attractive pricing make these Satellite Compasses perfect for virtually any size boat.
Revolutionary Baseline Architecture
Utilizing four separate GNSS Antennas for the ultimate in responsiveness, the SCX20 and SCX21 set a new standard for reliable and accurate heading for all of your marine electronics. Traditionally, a Satellite Compass™ calculates heading using one baseline between two antennas; the SCX20/21’s four antennas can calculate heading information using any one of the six baselines drawn between the four antennas.
The unprecedented quad-antenna design of the SCX20 and SCX21 makes them capable of calculating extremely accurate heading, pitch, roll, and heave information. They are the perfect heading solution for complex vessel installations where the view of satellites may sometimes be obstructed.
Experience Superior Accuracy
The SCX20 and SCX21 enhance the performance of on-board equipment such as Radar, Fish Finders, Sonar, and Autopilots. Accurate heading information empowers your NAVpilot to keep a better course, saving time, fuel, and money on every voyage; meanwhile, precise pitch, roll, and heave information stabilizes the display for many Furuno Fish Finders and Sonars, allowing for an accurate presentation even in the roughest of seas.
Precision Navigation Data To Any NMEA2000
Full NMEA2000 Certification provides plug and play connectivity to any NMEA2000 network. Distribute high-accuracy navigation data as well as air temperature and barometric pressure. Initial Setup and configuration can be done from any Navnet TZT2/TZT3 MFD, Navpilot 300, or use the free Furuno SC Setting Tool PC Software when properly interfaced.
Radar Echo Trail Zig-Zag Domination!
When connected to Furuno SCX20/21, the Radar’s echo trails hold steady and clearly depict an accurate echo trail thanks to the SCX20/21’s amazing accuracy. Company A’s satellite compass fails to uphold a steady heading, making echo trails virtually unintelligible. Company B’s heading accuracy fluctuates by +/- 3˚ with a slower update, causing an echo trail that has a wide zig-zag pattern. Company C’s heading accuracy fluctuates by +/- 5˚ with a faster update, causing an echo trail that is indistinguishable and confusing.
