Furuno MCU004 Remote Control f/NavNet TZtouch/TZtouch2 Product Description
Enhance Your Helm Control with the Furuno MCU004 Remote
Navigating busy waters or managing a multi-display setup on your vessel demands precision and quick access to controls. The Furuno MCU004 steps in as the ultimate sidekick for NavNet TZtouch and TZtouch2 multifunction displays (MFDs), blending tactile feedback with touchscreen efficiency. Imagine steering through choppy conditions without wrestling with wet screens or gloves— this compact remote delivers rotary knob precision for menu navigation, joystick agility for chart panning, and instant shortcuts for critical tasks like man overboard (MOB) alerts or autopilot engagement.
Crafted for real-world marine environments, its piano-black finish complements sleek TZtouch2 aesthetics while fitting seamlessly into dashboards, captain's chair arms, or even transom stations on center consoles. Captains rave about its ability to toggle between up to four displays effortlessly, keeping your focus on the horizon rather than fumbling with interfaces.
Core Features That Stand Out at Sea
- Versatile Joystick and Rotary Knob: Doubles as a RotoKey for TZtouch menu scrolling and zoom control across both TZtouch and TZtouch2, mimicking mouse-like cursor movement for intuitive chart interaction.
- Dedicated Function Buttons: Quick-access keys for edge swiping, home screen return, display brilliance adjustment, vessel centering, and a programmable shortcut button tailored to your most-used feature.
- Multi-Display Mastery: Active Display switching lets one MCU004 command multiple MFDs—perfect for expansive bridges or flybridges with several screens.
- Autopilot Integration: STBY/AUTO button for seamless NavPilot 700 series engage/disengage when networked with TZtouch2.
- Practical Alerts: Built-in buzzer ensures cockpit alarms grab your attention without missing a beat.
Robust Build for Marine Demands
Flush-mounted design measures just 2.95 inches wide by 6.88 inches tall, making it unobtrusive yet commanding. IP56 front panel waterproofing shrugs off spray and splashes, with IP22 rear protection for covered installs. The included 3-meter USB cable connects directly to your MFD, simplifying setup without extra adapters.
Real-World Benefits for Skippers and Crew
Touchscreens shine in calm harbors, but at speed or in rough seas, physical controls prevent errors. The MCU004 reduces fatigue during long watches by enabling gloved operation and one-handed zooming/panning. For fishing ops, mount it transom-side to adjust sonar views without climbing back aboard. Tournament anglers appreciate MOB instant activation, while cruisers value autopilot toggles from the flybridge. Its dual-press buttons (short for quick actions, long for deeper menus) unlock efficiency, turning complex nav systems into extensions of your instincts.
Whether outfitting a black-box TZtouch setup or a full TZtouch2 array, this remote elevates usability, safety, and control—proving indispensable on everything from sportfishers to workboats.
Seamless Compatibility Guide
Works flawlessly with all NavNet TZtouch models (TZT9, TZT14, TZTLBB) and TZtouch2 (TZTL12F, TZTL15F) running the required software—v3.01 or later for TZtouch2, with updates available for first-gen TZtouch. Network it via USB for plug-and-play control over radar overlays, fishfinder gains, or chart plotting.
