Replaced color

The bottom is displayed as a straight line. Echoes immediately below this line will have enhanced bottom tails. Harder bottom creates darker and longer tails. The nature and any changes in bottom density can be easily determined by any changes in color or tail lengths.

One of any colors among the color bar can be replaced with white color to emphasize the specific echo level.

The NAV data screen shows own ship's position, speed, distance run, waypoint data with wpt number, range/bearing to wpt and XTE, water depth and temperature.

The A-Scope picture on the right 1/3 of the screen shows an instantaneous echo envelope at each ping, clearly showing echo differentials and positional relationship. This is useful for closer observation of target depth.

Background color can be changed in the Menu for optimum viewing even at night time. A monochrome amber presentation is also available.

The FCV-291 and FCV-292 have an AUTO mode for hands-off operation. It automatically acquires and tracks the seabed, while adjusting receiver sensitivity for optimum echo presentation.

The stylish display unit allows flexible installation, fitting nicely on a table top or overhead location.

DUAL FREQUENCY

(FCV-292 only)

Dual-frequency operation assures better resolution using a high frequency and deeper range and penetration using a low frequency.
