Eagle Electronics 640c specs

Satellite Status Page. The first figure (left) indicates unit has not locked on to any satellites and does not have a fix on its position. The second figure (right) shows satellite lock-on with a 3D position acquired (lati- tude, longitude and altitude), and WAAS reception.

This screen shows a graphical view of the satellites that are in view. Each satellite is shown on the circular chart relative to your position. The point in the center of the chart is directly overhead. The small inner ring represents 45° above the horizon and the large ring represents the horizon. North is at the top of the screen. You can use this to see which satellites are obstructed by obstacles in your immediate area if the unit is facing north.

The GPS receiver is tracking satellites that are in bold type. The re- ceiver hasn't locked onto a satellite if the number is grayed out, there- fore it isn't being used to solve the position.

Beneath the circular graph are the bar graphs, one for each satellite in view. Since the unit has twelve channels, it can dedicate one channel per visible satellite. The taller the bar on the graph, the better the unit is receiving the signals from the satellite.

NOTE:

One of the data display options for the Satellite Status page is "Po- sition Error" (horizontal position error), which can appear in one of the page's data boxes. Position Error will show you the expected er- ror from a benchmark location. In other words, if the Position Error box shows 50 feet, then the position shown by the unit is estimated to be within 50 feet of the actual location.

It also gives you an indicator of the fix quality the unit currently has. The smaller the position error number, the better (and more accu- rate) the fix is. If the position error flashes dashes, then the unit hasn't locked onto the satellites, and the number shown isn't valid. For details, see Customize Page Displays, on page 76.

640c specifications

Eagle Electronics has made a significant mark in the world of marine electronics with its innovative and reliable products, notably the Eagle Electronics 640C, 640cDF, and the 640c models. These devices are designed for anglers and navigators who seek advanced functionality combined with user-friendly operation.

The Eagle Electronics 640C is a high-performance fish finder that is primarily admired for its vibrant display and precise mapping capabilities. Equipped with a 640x480 pixel, full-color LCD screen, it provides crystal-clear visibility even in bright sunlight. This device uses advanced sonar technology to offer detailed underwater images, allowing users to locate fish with remarkable accuracy. The high-resolution graphics enhance the experience while providing an intuitive interface for easy navigation through its various features.

The 640cDF, a variant of the 640C, elevates the standard fish finder experience by incorporating dual-frequency sonar capabilities. This model operates on both 200 kHz and 83 kHz frequencies, allowing users to switch between narrow and wide beams based on their fishing needs. The dual-frequency technology provides a more comprehensive view of the underwater environment, making it easier to identify different types of fish and underwater structures. Additionally, the 640cDF boasts temperature sensing capabilities, giving anglers valuable data regarding water conditions that can influence fish behavior.

All models in the Eagle 640 series feature built-in GPS navigation. The integrated GPS provides a reliable mapping system that allows users to mark waypoints and create routes, significantly improving navigation efficiency. This technology is vital for those who engage in long-distance fishing trips or travel in unfamiliar waters. The GPS functionality, combined with the sonar capabilities, makes these devices essential tools for successful fishing excursions.

Furthermore, the Eagle 640 series devices come equipped with customizable display options, allowing users to tailor the information presented based on their preferences. The intuitive menu system simplifies the navigation of the device's various features, empowering users to quickly access critical data without unnecessary complications.

In summary, the Eagle Electronics 640C, 640cDF, and the 640c represent a blend of cutting-edge technology and user-centric design in the marine electronics space. With features such as high-resolution displays, dual-frequency sonar, built-in GPS navigation, and customizable settings, these devices enhance the fishing experience, making them invaluable assets for anglers and navigators alike.
