High frequency sonar for high-grade fish detection
Our full-circle high frequency sonar is effective in the detection of bonito and tuna.
To follow the swimming speed, it is not good enough to be dependent upon image processing. In other words, a transducer with strong sound pressure and high sensitivity is required. Our sonar achieves a longer detection range by using a transducer arrayed with thousand of elements around its circumference.
Compact and easy to use remote chontroller
Your favorite maximum 10 different sonar setting patterns can be memorized in (sonar memory) function, which enables you to recall suitable sonar setting for different fishing grounds and fish targets easily with one touch finger operation. The standard normal sonar setting is already memorized in the 11th memory as the default setting which is protected from over writing and therefore the standard normal setting can be recalled anytime whenever needed. Five preset keys and a maximum of 8 screen memory keys are for frequent use menu registration.
Cross section screen with various display modes
Multiple display modes such as single, dual and magnified screen function are available fo the cross-section mode. Furthermore, the display area in the depth direction is selectable as either large or small. The maximum detection range in the magnified screen mode is 1000m. The ratio between vertical and horizontal directions (distance/depth ratio) can be changed depending on the fishing situation. Thus, detailed fish school data can be provided even in the cross section mode.
New functions with high resolution and greater detection capability change your fishing style.
A new function to track a maximum of 3 different schools of fish has been added. In addition to showing the distance and bearing based on your own ship, the moving speed and direction of the fish schools are indicated on the screen. The fish volume estimation indicates the estimated amount of target fish schools in figures by setting the fish volume beforehand. These new functions have been developed to support your fishing and fish target selection.
Advanced TX/RX stabilization function
The stabilization function controls the depression angle in small 6.0 degree steps through 360 degress for both transmission and reception.
