JFC-600 Fish nder
– performance features

Unique features

The JFC-600 sh nder continues the tradition
of high performance, operating in dual
frequency as standard, resulting in a highly
accurate and reliable read-out.

Display modes

JRC’s new sh nder incorporates a 6.5” high denition
colour LCD display. The innovative display modes (eleven
available) allow you to select and view eortlessly the
information you require. The operating status indicates gain,
noise suppression and interference. The numerical data, such
as speed, position, depth and temperature are conveniently

Dual frequency mixed mode

The JFC-600 includes a “dual frequency mixed mode”,
enabling you to overlay 2 dierent frequencies, a unique
feature normally only available on high-end sh nders.
Generally the lower frequency is more suitable for bottom
discrimination, while the high frequency is more useful for
shallow water detection.

Dual frequency
mixed mode

The unique “mix mode” of the JFC-600 enables you to see the
dierences of the two frequencies more clearly, giving you
better potential for a more protable catch.

Alarms

The JFC-600 incorporates three sh nding alarms, a ‘sh, shallow and deep’ alarm. In
addition, the sh nder integrates three water temperature and four navigation data alarms,
and a function to turn the alarm buzzer on or o. These alarms will contribute to safer
navigation and more ecient sh nding.

Flexible interfacing

The JFC-600 also known as the FF60 integrates a highly reliable interfacing eld. The
transducer is the heart of the operation, receiving speed, depth and temperature
information, sending ultrasonic signals which determine seabed conditions and the
presence of life underwater.

You also have the opportunity to connect a (D)GPS sensor and the JFC-600 has as well an
NMEA 0183 input and output, enabling you to display navigation information.

Easy operation

The compact design of JRC’s sh nder incorporates a new style of Man-Machine-Interface,
providing enhanced ergonomics and user-friendliness. The large LCD screen accompanied
by JRC’s customary menu structure ensures logical, accurate and convenient operation.

Automatic mode selection

If situations arise where automatic scaling is essential, the JFC-600 easily adapts to the mode
selection, providing an optimised view. As you navigate to your next catch and you need
a certain waypoint (up to 400 possible), depth or area, the automatic mode selection will
simply adapt to the mode and displays what is required at that point.
