One Account - Every Device - Always in Sync
Modern navigation is no longer confined to a single chart plotter. Today's skippers expect to plan routes at home, navigate on the water, review trips back at the office and have every device display the same information. That's exactly what the myTimeZero account is designed to do.
Think of myTimeZero as your personal cloud service for the TimeZero ecosystem. Once you sign into your account on each compatible device, it automatically keeps your navigation data synchronised, securely backed up and readily available across your entire fleet of devices.
Whether you use a Furuno NavNet TZtouchXL (TZTXL / TZtouchE or TZMAP) onboard, TimeZero Professional or TimeZero Navigator on your PC, or the TZ iBoat mobile app on your phone or tablet, your information follows you.
Your Navigation Data Everywhere
Instead of manually copying files using USB drives or memory cards, MyTimeZero continuously synchronises your important navigation data between devices.
This includes:
• Events/Waypoints
• Routes
• Boundary Areas
• Catch Logs
• Screen Shots & Photos
Create a route at home on your PC and it appears on your FURUNO TZ chart plotter. Add a waypoint while fishing on your compatible FURUNO TZ chart plotter and it becomes available in TZ Professional and TZ iBoat or mark a productive fishing spot from your phone and it synchronises back to your onboard system.
All your devices work from the same, up-to-date information.
Automatic Cloud Backup
Navigation data often represents years of experience and knowledge. Losing it can be frustrating and, in many cases, impossible to replace.
myTimeZero automatically stores your synchronised navigation data securely in the cloud.
If your PC is replaced, your chart plotter is upgraded or you purchase another compatible device, simply log into your myTimeZero account and your navigation information is restored automatically.
• No manual backups
• No USB transfers
• No worrying about losing valuable fishing marks or important routes
Synchronisation Across Every Platform
One of the biggest strengths of the TimeZero ecosystem is that every platform works together.
Your FURUNO onboard navigation system remains the centre of your vessel's navigation, automatically synchronising with your myTimeZero account whenever connected to the internet.
Perfect for:
• Offshore navigation
• Fishing operations
• Route management
• Waypoint collection
TimeZero Professional & TimeZero Navigator
Plan your voyage in the comfort of your office or home. Large PC displays make route planning, chart management and trip preparation significantly easier than working solely on a chart plotter. Once complete, everything synchronises directly to your FURUNO chart plotter.
After returning from a day on the ocean and connecting to the internet, saved routes, waypoints and marks are automatically available back on your PC.
TZ iBoat
Your smartphone or tablet becomes an extension of your navigation system.
Use TZ iBoat to:
• View synchronised routes
• Access waypoints
• As a remote to activate Go-To while onboard
• Plan simple trips
• Prepare navigation while away from the boat
• View Weather and Oceanic Data Overlays
