True Motion Display

The relative motion display places the own ship mark at the screen center, and echoes from fish and the seabed move on the screen relative to own ship’s movement. This means that even when the ship is dead in water, fish echoes move on the display.

In the true motion display, however, stationary objects are fixed and own ship and fish echoes move on the display in accordance with their true courses and speeds. Thus you can observe own ship and fish echo movement with respect to the seabed.

Open the data setting window and select SONR•BEAM. Set UP/ TM in the SONAR menu to TM. This function requires speed and heading inputs.

Although the true motion mode is available for use in all modes, use in the combination mode is not recommended since the own ship mark may move into the combination picture area.

The intuitive user interface facilitates quick access to essential radar functions, making it user-friendly even for those who may not be experts in radar operation.

A notable technological advancement in the CSH-73 is its digital signal processing (DSP) technology, which dramatically improves target detection capabilities, especially in adverse weather conditions. This technology helps to filter out noise and clutter, enabling the radar to provide accurate readings and reliable targeting information. The advanced target tracking capabilities allow users to monitor multiple vessels simultaneously, enhancing situational awareness.

In addition to its impressive detection capabilities, the CSH-73 features an Automatic Radar Plotting Aid (ARPA), which aids in collision avoidance by tracking the course and speed of approaching vessels. This sophisticated system simplifies decision-making for the crew, promoting safer navigation.

Another key innovation is the integration of Ethernet and NMEA 2000 connectivity. This feature enables seamless integration with other onboard systems, such as chart plotters and autopilots, creating a comprehensive navigation network. This connectivity allows for real-time data sharing, which enhances the overall operational effectiveness of the vessel.

The CSH-73 is also equipped with a range of customizable settings, allowing mariners to tailor the radar display to their specific needs and preferences. Features such as adjustable gain, sea clutter, and rain clutter suppression enhance the radar's performance under various environmental conditions.

Constructed with durability in mind, the CSH-73 adheres to robust marine standards, ensuring reliable performance even in the harshest maritime environments. This resilience is crucial for commercial vessels that regularly operate in challenging conditions.

In summary, the Furuno MODEL CSH-73 stands out as a powerful tool for enhancing maritime safety and navigation. Its advanced technologies, user-friendly interface, and durable construction make it an essential component for modern vessels, providing mariners with the confidence they need to operate effectively in any navigational scenario. The CSH-73 continues to uphold Furuno's reputation for excellence in marine electronics, making it a trusted choice for professionals worldwide.
