B&G Zeus SR Chartplotter, C-MAP DISCOVER X, No Sonar, NMEA 2000

Overview

The B&G Zeus SR is a sailing-focused multifunction display and chartplotter offered in 10 in, 12 in, and 16 in sizes, with C-MAP Discover X charts for the US and Canada and a 10 Hz GNSS receiver for GPS and GLONASS positioning.

It runs from 12V or 24V DC systems (10 to 31.2V) and uses a SolarMAX IPS touchscreen that stays readable from a wide range of viewing angles, even with polarized sunglasses. The housing is rated IPX6 and IPX7 for open-helm use where spray and washdowns are part of the routine.

Controls are set up for real conditions on deck, with touch plus a rotary dial and keypad. Built-in sailing tools such as SailSteer, LayLines, Routes, and StartLine make it easier to steer by the numbers, whether you are cruising or lining up for a start.

Key features

• SolarMAX IPS multi-touch display with brightness over 1200 nits for daylight helm viewing
• 12/24V DC input (10 to 31.2V) with recommended 5A fuse
• IPX6 and IPX7 waterproof rating for cockpit installations
• Hybrid control: touchscreen with rotary dial and keypad for wet hands and rough water
• Networking support: Wi-Fi 5, Gigabit Ethernet, and NMEA 2000 for sharing data across the boat
• 10 Hz GNSS receiver for GPS and GLONASS, with SBAS support (WAAS)
• Two microSD card slots for chart management, updates, and data handling
• Supports up to four IP video cameras for monitoring around the boat
• No internal echosounder; add a compatible network sonar module and transducer when depth and fishfinding are required

Variants

This display is offered in three screen sizes with the same Zeus SR interface, sailing tools, and network connections.

Screen size, physical dimensions, and resolution are the main differences to plan around when you are fitting a helm pod, a nav station, or a glass-bridge panel.

• 000-16021-001: Screen size 10 in. 1280 x 800 resolution in a 11.33 in W x 6.93 in H x 3.13 in D housing for tighter pedestals and smaller consoles.
• 000-16024-001: Screen size 12 in. 1280 x 800 resolution with a 13.34 in W x 8.20 in H x 3.34 in D footprint for a main helm display that still fits most sailboat pods.
• 000-16027-001: Screen size 16 in. 1920 x 1080 resolution and a 16.67 in W x 9.51 in H x 3.49 in D housing for wide views, split-screen layouts, and glass-bridge style installs.

Installation and setup

Plan the mounting location with room for rear clearance and cable bend radius, especially when you are flush-mounting into a composite pod or nav station panel. For exposed helms, aim for a spot with some spray protection and use a cover when the boat is unattended to cut down on UV and salt buildup.

The setup wizard helps get the basics in place after wiring is complete. If you are migrating from an existing network, confirm your NMEA 2000 backbone is properly terminated and powered, then add the Zeus SR as a device on the backbone for instrument data, wind, autopilot, and heading sources.

Electrical and system integration

Power the unit from a clean 12V or 24V DC feed within the 10 to 31.2V range and protect it with a 5A fuse. On boats with high-current loads like windlasses or bow thrusters, keeping electronics power separate helps prevent voltage dips and interference at the helm.

Gigabit Ethernet is the path for high-bandwidth devices such as radar, network sonar modules, and sharing across multiple displays. Wi-Fi supports connectivity for app features and onboard integration where running extra cabling is not practical.

On-board use

For cruising, this is a solid helm hub for charting, radar overlay, and pulling sailing data onto the same screen. For racing crews, the dedicated sailing functions and quick control access help when you are calling laylines, timing a start, and managing busy screens without taking your hands off the wheel for long.
