TRADE MARK REGISTERED

MARCA REGISTRADA

Offering a broad variety of presentation

modes with fast and simple operation

MARKER ZOOM BOTTOM-LOCK

The bottom is displayed as a straight
line on the lower part of the screen,
regardless of bottom contour.
This mode is useful for detection of fish
close to or on the bottom.

The portion of water column to be
enlarged can be freely set by the
zoom markers. The zoomed picture
appears on the left half of the screen.

BOTTOM ZOOM

The zoom markers follow the bottom
contour automatically giving us an
expanded view of the area near the
bottom. This is done even under
conditions of changing depth.

The FURUNO FCV-291 (single frequency) and
FCV-292 (dual frequency) are compact, cost-effective
color video sounders

(1, 2 or 3 kW model selectable) for

professional fishermen. The operating frequency can
be selected from 28, 38*, 50, 88 or 200

kHz (two

frequencies selectable for FCV-292).

They feature a variety of display modes, user-friendly
operation and easy evaluation of seabed conditions.
The echoes are presented on the 10-inch screen in
up to 16 colors. One of the 16 colors can be
displayed in white to emphasize the specific echo
level.

Display modes include: Single

(Low-frequency/Hi-

frequency selectable for FCV-291), Dual (FCV-292),

Marker Zoom, Bottom-Lock, Bottom Discrimination,
Bottom Zoom, NAV data and A-scope. The Bottom
Discrimination mode enhances the bottom echo tails
to easily discriminate between soft, rocky or sandy
bottom. This is done by noting the different colors
and lengths of bottom tails. In the Nav data display,
own ship navigation data can be displayed using
appropriate sensors.

*A 38 kHz model is available for the FCV-291 only.
(The transducer should be supplied locally)

NAV DATA

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.

ECHO COLOR

CHANGE

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

A-SCOPE

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.

CHANGE OF

DISPLAY COLOR

BOTTOM

DISCRIMINATION

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

DUAL
FREQUENCY

(FCV-292 only)

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.

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

Bottom fish

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.
