Certification
To ensure that SmartCraft vessel integration systems function without connectivity
or information transfer problems, all products sold as compatible with the system
must be "SmartCraft Certified". After certification, the product's manufacturer is
authorized and required to brand it with the "SmartCraft Networked" diamond logo.
