FOREWORD

A Word to FCV-1200L/1200LM Owners

Congratulations on your choice of the FURUNO FCV-1200L/FCV-1200LM COLOR LCD

SOUNDER. We are confident you will see why the FURUNO name has become synonymous

with quality and reliability.

FCV-1200L is a dual-frequency color LCD sounder, and FCV-1200LM is a monitor which

displays the signal from an external video sounder.

For over 50 years FURUNO Electric Company has enjoyed an enviable reputation for innovative

and dependable marine electronics equipment. This dedication to excellence is furthered by our

extensive global network of agents and dealers.

This equipment is designed and constructed to meet the rigorous demands of the marine

environment. However, no machine can perform its intended function unless installed, operated

and maintained properly. Please carefully read and follow the recommended procedures for

operation and maintenance.

We would appreciate hearing from you, the end-user, about whether we are achieving our

purposes.

Thank you for considering and purchasing FURUNO equipment.

Features

• ^{8- or 16- color presentation (including background) provides detailed information on fish}

density and bottom composition, on a 10.4 inch color LCD.

• ^{Furuno Free Synthesizer (FFS) transceiver design allows use of user-selectable operating}

frequencies.

• ^{You can select display orientation; Portrait (vertical) or Landscape (horizontal).}

• ^{Automatic bottom tracking features permits unattended operation.}

• ^{Frequency mixing picture helps discriminate fish species.}

• ^{Alarms: Fish, Bottom, Fish-Bottom, Water Temperature (temperature data required).}

• ^{A-scope presentation displays echoes at each transmission with amplitudes and colors}

according to intensities.

• ^{Unique split range control allows independent range settings in dual-frequency mode.}

High frequency (HF)

The higher the frequency of the ultrasonic pulse the better the resolution. Therefore, the high

frequency pulse is useful for detailed observation of fish echoes.

The bottom lock display shows the area between the zoom marker and the bottom as a straight

line to distinguish it from fish near the bottom, and thus it is useful for discriminating fish near

the bottom.

*Mix

This mode compares echo intensity between low and high frequencies, and displays echoes

from tiny fish in discriminative colors. This is done by utilizing the fact that tiny fish return a

stronger echo against a high frequency rather than a low frequency. This is done as below.

1. If a high frequency echo is stronger than the corresponding echo on the low frequency, the

high frequency echo is displayed.

2. If the low frequency echo is stronger than or equal to the high frequency echo, it is less

likely to be a tiny fish and therefore is displayed in blue.

3. If the echoes on both frequencies have the intensity corresponding to reddish brown or red,

they are displayed in reddish brown or red: this is necessary to display the zero line and

bottom in reddish brown or red.

In other words, the echoes displayed in orange thru light-blue may be considered to be tiny fish

such as whitebait.

The TVG compensates for propagation loss of sound, so that the echoes from the same size

fish schools are displayed in the same color. Avoid excessive TVG; weak echoes may not be

displayed. The TVG is also useful for reducing surface noise.

Ship’s speed dependent mode

With speed data provided by a speed log, current indicator or navigation equipment, the display

advance speed may be set according to ship’s speed, the ship’s speed dependent mode. As

shown in the figure below the horizontal scale of the display is not influenced by the change of

ship’s speed, thus the speed-dependent picture advance permits judgement of fish school size

and abundance at any speed. The picture advance speed indication is suffixed with an “S” when

the ship’s speed dependent mode is active. For example, “1/1S.” For how to enable the ship’s

speed dependent mode see page 2-9. This function is available with ship’s speed of 2-20 kt.

second reflection echoes may appear between surface and actual bottom echo. In this case

lower the PRR level.

The choice “S” means the ship’s speed dependent mode, where the PRR changes

automatically with ship’s speed. (Requires ship’s speed input.) For further information about the

ship’s speed dependent mode, see page 1-20.

STC (High and Low Frequencies)

Adjusts STC level for the high and low frequencies, and is useful for suppressing surface noise.

The setting range is 0-10; the higher the setting the greater the extent of suppression. Setting

10 suppresses noise up to about 5 m. Turn off the STC when there is no noise on the screen,

otherwise weak echoes may be missed.

GAIN ADJ (High and Low Frequencies)

control cannot effectively adjust the gain.

4.3 Bottom Echoes

Bottom echoes are normally strongest and displayed in reddish brown or red, but colors and

width will vary with bottom material, depth, sea condition, installation, frequency, pulselength

and sensitivity.

Bottom profile

A hard and rough bottom appears with a longer tail because it reflects more of the ultrasonic

pulse. Because of their stronger return, shallow echoes appear wider than deep ones even

when all botom conditions are equal. Also, a longer bottom tail appears on slopes because of

the difference in traveling time at both edges of the beam angle. In the rugged bottom, echoes

are reflected on many different planes, overlapping to present a 3D effect.

Bottom nature

The nature of the bottom is known from the intensity and length of the bottom tail. Generally,

when observing the bottom nature, the lower sounding frequency is used, the pulselength is set

to long, and the gain setting is not disturbed. In the hard and craggy bottom, the bottom appears

more reddish and with a long tail. However, the bottom with a sediment may give a short tail if a

low frequency sounding is used.

Fish Schools

Fish quantity

Fish quantity can be estimated to a certain extent from fish echoes on the screen if fish school

size and fish school density are kept in mind.

Fish school size

Usually the size of fish echoes on the screen is proportional to the actual size of the fish school.

However, if two fish echoes appear at different depths with the same size, the fish school at

shallower depth is smaller because the ultrasonic beam widens as it propagates and a fish

school in deep water is displayed larger.

Fish school density

If two fish scools appear with the same color at different depths, the one in deeper water is

denser because the ultrasonic wave attenuates as it propagates and the fish school in deep

water tends to be displayed in a weaker color.

the screen. It can be suppressed with the CLUTTER function.

Aerated water

When the sea is rough or the ship makes a quick turn, gaps in the bottom echo on the screen

may appear. This is caused by air bubbles which block propagation of the sound wave.

Generally low frequency ultrasonic waves are interrupted more easily than high ones.

Wipe the LCD carefully to prevent

necessary

scratching, using tissue paper and an LCD

cleaner. To remove dirt or salt deposits,

use an LCD cleaner, wiping slowly with

Use the proper fuse.

Use of a wrong fuse can cause fire or

If…

Then…

there are no echoes but the scale appears

•

check if the transducer is properly connected.

there is no zero line or zero line is not in correct

position

check if the range shifted. (Zero line does not

appear when the range is shifted.)

•

press the [-] key so as the scale appears from

you suspect low sensitivity

•

check that gain control is properly set.

the bottom is traced in zigzag pattern or you

experience occassional loss of echo

the sea may be rough. Bottom is traced zigzag

when the sea is rough.

•

own boat may have passed over other boat’s

wake, which blocks propagation of sound wave.

there is no depth readout

check to see if bottom is present on the normal

picture range.

check if bottom echo is strong enough (red,

reddish brown in color).

automatic shift is inoperative

picture is distorted

check if bottom echo is strong enough (red,

reddish brown in color)

check if magnetic field generating equipment

(transformer, rectifier) are nearby.

color is strange in a given area

occasional noise is seen

•

check if a magnet is near the equipment.

check if the cables of pulse generating

equipment are near the equipment.

there is noise and interference

•

check that GAIN and CLUTTER properly

adjusted.

•

check the setting of the noise limiter.
