The FCV-620 is Furuno's New Dual Frequency (50 Khz and 200 Khz) Color LCD Sounder featuring Furuno's DSP Technology. Comprised of a display unit and a transducer, the FCV-620 displays underwater conditions in 8, 16 or 64 Colors on a Superbright 5.6" LCD Screen.
You've probably heard about digital fish finders, but aren't quite sure what the difference is. The main difference is the filtering capabilities and auto adjustments. Furuno's new DSP (Digital Signal Processing) technology helps adjust gain, STC "Clutter" and output power, as well as suppress main bang (the echos just below the transducer.) It also makes the picture clearer and easier to decipher. But even the best digital filter won't help unless you start with a solid basis, such as Furuno's renowned fishfinder technology.
The Furuno's waterproof construction allows it to be installed on any bridge. Audio and visual alarms alert you whenever preset limits are met for water depth, water temperature and fish echos. Selectable display modes include High or Low Frequency, Dual Frequency, Zoom, Nav Data, A-Scope, Marker Zoom, Bottom Zoom or Bottom Lock, Furuno's TLL (Target Lat/Lon) output allows you to interface the FCV-620 with your Furuno Chartplotter so you can mark any spot you desire and save it as a waypoint, enabling you to return to it whenever you desire.
