B&G Zeus2

[Cdicko]

I’m about to purchase a 2015 beneteau with a 7inch Zeus2. Question is there an app to mirror the screen on the iPad, if so do i need the extra B&G WiFi module? The only app i can find on App Store is B&G sailing and navigation which does not support zeus2

Its called B&G link app

.... if so do i need the extra B&G WiFi module?

Yes, I think you need the Wifi-1 module.

Yes, I think you need the Wifi-1 module.

That makes sense now Thankyou. Found the app too. It’s “link: connect your boat”

I have a vulcan plotter and just used the app to mirror on tablet without any module

I think the Vulcan and the zeus3 have built in WiFi,

You can also use the app to save your waypoints etc.

I'm struggling with this.
Does anyone know the procedure to get the wifi1 talking to the zeus2? I've wired it in using the ethernet cable and socket. The power and signal LEDs light up but the Zeus2 doesn't appear to "see" the wifi1

I was give to understand that the Zeus and Vulcan have built-in wifi which will conect to your tablet via the app.

should be under wireless devices in the wireless menu. Your Zeus won't connect to the wireless as far as I know, your phone/tablet will connect and the Zeus will give them an IP Address on the wireless network.

Thanks.
Yes the Zeus 3 and Vulcan, I believe, have wifi built in but not the Zeus 2

Thanks. Perhaps I'm doing it the wrong way round and should try to connect via the tablet first. I'll try that tomorrow.

Thanks for all replies so far. I've got a few leads to try.
