Furuno FCV1150 12.1 Color Fishfinder [FCV1150]

Furuno FCV1150 12.1-Inch Color Fishfinder

The Furuno FCV1150 is a top - notch color digital sounder crafted for various professional fishing operations. Its 12.1 - inch high - brightness color LCD with an AR coated glass filter offers excellent, glare - free viewing, even under direct sunlight.

This fishfinder uses Furuno Free Synthesizer (FFS) technology, allowing you to choose from a wide range of operating frequencies between 28 and 200kHz. When using a Furuno transducer, the operating frequency is automatically set in the menu and can be manually adjusted anytime. This is great for boats targeting different fish species and helps avoid interference from nearby vessels with same - frequency transducers. You can select the output power from 1, 2, or 3 kW.

There are numerous display modes and functions. It provides captains with straightforward and intuitive information for all fishing needs, such as Single (HF/LF), Dual, Single + Zoom, Zoom (Bottom Lock, Bottom Zoom or Marker Zoom), Mix Mode, Nav Data, and A - Scope. You can also program two custom display modes. It can be connected to a Furuno Satellite Compass to compensate for ocean - induced heaving, ensuring stable detection in rough seas.

Faster Transmission Rate:
Compared to regular fish finders, the transmission rate of the FCV1150 is increased by over 30%. This means you can get more detailed underwater information in the same sounding interval. It has a new transmission technique that automatically adjusts the echo transmission rate according to the water depth, giving better seabed and target detection.

Quick Gain Setting:
You can easily adjust the gain of all echoes on the screen by rotating the Gain knob. This way, you can quickly find the right setting for any situation.

White Edge:
The top of the seabed is shown in white to reveal the seabed structure and help distinguish bottom fish from the seabed.

Using the Furuno FCV1150 fishfinder is quite simple. First, make sure to connect it to a suitable power source. You can choose between 12 - 24 VDC (with a maximum of 50W) or use an optional rectifier for 100/110/220/230 VAC. Once powered on, the operating frequency is usually set automatically if you're using a Furuno transducer, but you can manually change it in the menu. This is handy when you're after different types of fish or want to avoid interference from other boats.

When it comes to display modes, you have a bunch of options. Pick the one that suits your fishing needs, whether it's Single (HF/LF), Dual, or any of the others. You can even program two custom display modes for your convenience. To adjust the gain of the echoes on the screen, just rotate the Gain knob. This helps you get the best view in various situations.

One thing to note is that the product may not be returned to the place of purchase. If you have any problems, contact the manufacturer directly. As for maintenance, keep the 12.1 - inch LCD screen clean. Use a soft, dry cloth to wipe it gently. Also, make sure the AR coated glass filter and anti - polarized sunglass filter are free from dirt and scratches. Check the power connections regularly to ensure they are secure. This will help your fishfinder work well for a long time and give you accurate information about what's underwater.
