Furuno FCV-295 Specifications Download Page 2

With the FCV-295's Quick Gain control, 
changes in the Gain setting are applied to 
not only to new echoes, but to all past 
echoes on the screen. You can compare 
the past and current echoes under same 
gain setting. Because the changes are 
applied to both new and existing returns, 
you will be able to quickly and easily find 
the right Gain setting for your conditions.

The FCV-295 is a new color digital sounder designed for a 

variety of professional fishing operations. It features a 

bonded 10.4" LCD display providing superior 

viewing even in direct sunlight. You can display echoes in 8, 

16, or 64 colors, with color assignment dependent on the 

strength of  the returned echo.

The FURUNO Free Synthesizer (FFS) Transceiver allows a 

wide selection of operating frequencies. You may choose 

any two frequencies between 28 and 200 kHz to fit your 

fishing operation. Output power is selectable from 1, 2 or 3 

kW. A wide variety of display modes and functions are 

available, which provide skippers with simple and intuitive 

information.

FURUNO Digital Filter delivers crystal clear target presentation

FURUNO Free Synthesizer transceiver allows adjustable operating frequency 

When FURUNO transducers are connected and set to the FCV-295, 
the operating frequency range will be registered and shown in the 
menu. The user can shift the operating frequency freely between the 
ranges at any time from the menu. With the FURUNO 82B-35R 
transducer, the operator can select any operating frequency from 66 
to 109 kHz. This feature is particularly useful for vessels targeting 
many different species, or when the fish finders of other ships in the 
area cause interference.

FURUNO Digital Filter

The rate of transmission is increased by more than 30% compared to conventional fish 
finders. As the result, more detailed information about underwater conditions can be 
gained through the same sounding interval. With the FCV-295’ s AUTO transmission 
function, the rate is automatically raised in shallow waters and lowered in deep waters, 
which  provides for detailed detection of seabed targets.

An often-used function such as TVG (Time 
Varied Gain) can be programmed and made 
available with the press of the 
Function key. This will give you 
access to any menu item 
without opening the menu.

New digital fish finder delivers crystal clear image of fish targets and bottom structure

Gain: 5

Gain: 8

The top of the seabed is displayed in white to easily discern seabed structure from 
bottom fish returns. While conventional bottom discrimination function called 
“White Line” applies also to the strongest echoes, the White Edge function 
enhances the discrimination of bottom fish and seabed by painting a very thin line 
above the bottom contour regardless of gain setting or display color.

FURUNO  digital  filter  optimizes  the 
gain  to  obtain  highly  defined 
images  of  underwater  conditions. 
The  FCV-295  can  clearly  show 
target fish close to the seabed.

The  digital  filter  also  eliminates  noise  to  deliver 
sharp  and  detailed  echo  presentation,  achieving 
detection  of  fishing  reef  and  even  individual  fish 
with absolute clarity.
