Does DFF1 have Bottom Discrimination Mode?

[Adeotec]

I'm replacing my BBFF1 with a DFF1 that was built in 2010. I thought this unit had the same technology as the 587. However is see Furuno website lists Bottom Discrimination Mode for the 587 but not the DFF1.

Thanks

Adeotec,
The DFF1 doesn't have Bottom Discrimination. However matched with the correct transducer the BBDS1 will do Bottom Discrimination.

Thank you very much for the response. I'm using a VX2 head unit. Will that unit be computable with the BBDS1 bottom discriminating function?

Is the bottom discriminating mode the only difference between the DFF1 and the BBDS1?

Thank you again.

Adeotec,
The BBDS1 needs to be used with either 3D or TZT for Bottom Discrimination. The BD mode is the only difference between the BBDS1 and the DFF1.
