must not be discarded in standard trash, or at a trash site. Take the
used batteries to a battery collection site according to your national
legislation and the Batteries Directive 2006/66/EU.
In the USA
The Mobius loop symbol (three chasing arrows) indicates that Ni-Cd
and lead-acid rechargeable batteries must be recycled. Take the used
batteries to a battery collection site according to local laws.

Congratulations on your choice of the FURUNO DFF3 Network Sounder. We are confident you
will see why the FURUNO name has become synonymous with quality and reliability.
Since 1948, FURUNO Electric Company has enjoyed an enviable reputation for quality marine
electronics equipment. This dedication to excellence is furthered by our extensive global network
of agents and dealers.
This equipment is designed and constructed to meet the rigorous demands of the marine environment. However, no machine can perform its intended function unless operated and maintained
properly. Please carefully read and follow the recommended procedures for operation and maintenance.
Thank you for considering and purchasing FURUNO.
Features
The DFF3 network sounder is a dual frequency echo sounder designed for use with the FURUNO
NavNet, NavNet vx2, NavNet 3D and NavNet TZtouch series. The DFF3 feeds data about underwater conditions via a LAN.
• FURUNO Free Synthesizer (FFS) transceiver design allows use of user-selectable operating
frequencies (28 - 200 kHz).
• Automatic operation selects correct range and gain to show fish echoes and bottom in both
shallow and deep waters.
• Improved discrimination of near-surface fish by eliminating the transmission line.
• Heaving compensation* stabilizes the picture against ship’s pitching and rolling. * Requires
NavNet 3D/TZtouch display device plus Satellite Compass SC-30.
• Approximate fish length calculation available with conenction of transducer 50/200-1T. (NavNet
3D and TZtouch only.)
• 1/2/3 kW output

1. MOUNTING
Transducer, thru-hull pipe and tank com bination s
The network sounder can be installed on a desktop, deck or on a bulkhead. When selecting a
mounting location for the network sounder, keep the following in mind:
• The temperature and humidity at the mounting site should be moderate and stable.
• Locate the unit away from exhaust pipes and vents.
• The mounting location should be well ventilated.
• Mount the unit where shock and vibration are minimal.
• Keep the unit away from electromagnetic field-generating equipment such as motors and generators.
• Leave slack in cables for maintenance and servicing ease.
8
Page 17
1. MOUNTING
• A magnetic compass will be affected if the network sounder is placed too close to it. Observe
the compass safe distances noted i n the safety instructions to prevent disturbance to the magnetic compass.
Fasten the network sounder to the mounting location with four se lf-tapping screws (5×20), referring to the outline drawing at the back of this manual for mounti ng dimensions.
1.3Transducer
The performance of the echo sounder largely depends upon the transducer posi tion. Select a
place least affected by air bubbles since turbulence blocks the sounding path. Further, select a
place least influenced by engine noi se. I t is known that ai r bubbles ar e fe west at the p lace wher e
the bow first falls and the next wave rises, at usual cruising speed.
Note: The face of the trans ducer must be facing the sea bottom in nor mal cruising tr im of the boat.
1.4Optional Speed/Temperature Sensors
ST-02MSB, ST-02PSB
1.4.1Mounting considerations
Select a suitable mounting location considering the following points:
• Select a mid-boat flat position. The sensor does not have to be installed perf ectly perpendicular.
However, the sensor must not be damaged in dry-docking operation.
• Select a place apart from equipment generating heat.
• Select a place in the forward direct ion viewing from the drain hole, to allow for circulation of cooling water.
• Select a place free from vibration.
• Do not install near the transducer of an echo sounder, to prevent interference to the echo
sounder.
1.4.2Mounting procedure
1.Dry dock the boat.
2.Make a hole of approx. 51 mm in diameter in the
mounting location.
3.Unfasten locknut and remove the sensor section.
4.Apply high-grade sealant to the flange of the sen-
sor.
5.Pass the sensor casing through the hole.
6.Face the notch on the sensor toward boat's bow
and tighten the flange.
7.Set the sensor section to the sensor casing and

TD-ID transducer (Airmar make transduc er)
The TD-ID type transducer can be connected to t h is equipment. However, note the following limitations:
• TD-ID transducer cannot be used with NavNet, NavNet vx2.
• TD-ID transducer cannot be used with non-TD-ID transducer.
• Connect single TD-ID transducer to low frequency WAGO connector, regardless of actual frequency.
Cable fabrication
Fabricate the transducer cable as shown below. Separat e the transducer cable well away from
other electric cab les to prevent interf erence to the sounder. T his is especially i mportant in the case
of power cables from televisions and monitors.

4.2Replacing the Fuse
The 5A fuse (Type: FGBO-A 125V 5A PBF, Code No. 000-155-853-10) in the snap-in fuse holder
on the power cable protects the equipment from equipment fault and reverse polarity of the ship's
mains. If the equipment cannot be powered, the fuse may have blown. Find out the cause for
blown fuse before replacing it. If the fuse blows again after replacement, contact a FURUNO agent
or dealer for advice.
WARNING
Use the proper fuse.
Use of a wrong fuse can damage the equipment and cause fire.
4.3Restoring Default Settings
This procedure restores all default sounder settings on the NavNet series. You can restore all default settings or restore those other than transducer and LAN. This procedure should only be performed by a suitably qualified FURUNO technician.
1.Disconnect the power and LAN cables from the DFF3.
2.Turn on the #1 and #2 switches of the Mode switch. See section 3.2 for the location.
3.Turn on the #7 or #8 switch of the Mode switch as applicable.
#7: Restore default settings other than LAN and transducer.
#8: Restore all default settings. Use this when changing transducers.
4.Connect the power cable to the DFF3, and turn on the power at the ship’s switchboard.
5.The LED blinks (every four seconds) when default settings are completely restored.
