A Word to the Owner of the FURUNO FSV-84

Congratul ations on your choice of the FURUNO FSV-84 Color Scanning Sonar. We are conf ident you will see w hy the FURUNO name has become synonymous with quality and reliability.
For over 50 y ears FURUNO Electric Com pany has enjoyed an enviabl e reputation for quality marine electronics equipment . This dedication to excellenc e is furthered by our extensive global netw ork of agents and dealers.
This equi pm ent is designed and construct ed to meet the rigorous d em ands of the marine environment . However, no m achine can perform its intended function unless oper ated and maintained properly. Please carefully read and follow the recommended procedures for oper ation and maintenance.
Thank you for considering and purch as ing FURUNO equipment .

Features

The FSV-84 is a full-ci r c le, multibeam electronic c olor scanning sonar which detects and displays fish school s on a 21- inch non-glare, high-resolution color monitor. (System also availabl e without monitor.)
The mai n features of the FSV-84 are
Cylindrical + sphere transducer pr ovides 90 degrees vertical detection.
Vivid 32- c olor echo strength dependent display for im pr ov ed recognition of
bottom, f ish school concentration, distribution and volum e.
Fish schools can be searched from horizontal (range direc tion), vertical ( depth direction) with vertical and half-circle features.
Function k eys for direct access to desired menu item.
User programs for one-touch setup of equipment.
Menu-dri ve n operation.
Fish hi s t ogr am s hows signal strength distribution of echo within estimate
mark.
Various marks and alphanumeric fishing and navigation information for intuitive operation.
Memory cards for storage and replay of picture and settings.

1.7 Adjusting the Gain

The [G AIN] control adjusts receiver gain (s ensitivity) for the hori z ontal, slant vertical modes . Adjust it so fish echoes are clear ly displayed with minimal noise on the screen. Too high a gain sett ing not only displays excess noise and makes it difficult to discriminate wanted echoes but also causes bottom echo es to be painted in strong colors, resul ting in echoes being maske d by bottom reflections. Normally, set the control somewhere between positions 3 and 7.
1. If the horizontal and vertical m odes ar e ac tive, press the [HSV] k ey to show the range and g ain indications of the mode you wish to adj us t in yellow. Pressing t he [ HS V ] key changes the range and gain indicati on in yellow between hor izontal1 and horizontal2, or horizontal and vertical, alternately.
2. Adjust the [GAIN] c ontrol. New gai n s etting is mom entarily displayed in large charac ters at the top of
each display. Gain is always displ ay ed at the top right-hand corner of the horizontal display and bottom on the vertical 1 display.
