FCV1900G with R109LHW problem

Hi, i have few problems with this combo and i would appreciate some help.

1. No TD-ID inormation with R109LHW transducer (td-id page is blank) can FCV1900 read TID from this transducer?

2. Can i setup this transducer for ACCU-FISH accurately as it is not officially supported (as i read only CM265LH-PM111LH-CM599LH are)

3. If i choose on FCV1900 own XDCR page transducer type HF/CM265LH and LF/PM111LH , it kinda works but CM265LH voltage is not proper voltage for R109LHW (it should be 94V); and if i manually enter transducer type and voltages (for R109LHW should be LF-147 and HF-94) then i can't enable ACCU-FISH, even if i choose CM275LHW which has correct voltage of 94V ACCU-FISH still can't be enabled

4.As i don't have any info on TD-ID information page and (swTDIDcalib) is grayed out i can't enter TVR-RVR values with formula from installation manual

What am i doing wrong?

tonik,

The only transducers that can provide ACCU-FISH for the FCV1900 are the following: CM265LH, PM111LH, CM599LH, and the CA50/200-1T. And the reason why is that these transducers are equipped with right kind of High Frequency/Low Frequency Elements that allow for use with Furuno's ACCU-FISH features.

The R109LH-W uses a totally different High Frequency Element (High-Wide), and will not provide the correct values needed for use the ACCU-FISH feature, and is reason why its grayed-out when you try to select it.

Airmar does extra testing for the CM265LH, PM111LH,and CM599LH and encloses those testing values that are written on a card in the box with the transducer.

In short, you cannot use ACCU-FISH with the R109LH-W. :noway

Deep Blue thanks for your reply but as i stated in my post i can activate ACCU-FISH and it works with R109LH-W if i choose in FCV1900 own XDCR settings CM265LH and PM111LH and then i can calibrate with Fish Size settings, but wanted to make it more accurate. Fish Size.png
And what about TD-ID information that is blank, do you know if FCV1900 can read TID from R109LH-W?
Are you trying to say that i don't even need to try to make it work and that it is impossible and won't work properly? I am asking because Fish Graph is displaying fish size numbers...

Also Installation Manual says this:

And i have R109LHW TVR and RVR specs that i need to enter into formula but i can't change anything on TD-ID information window

R109LH-W Low Freq side is the same specification as approved PM111LH

There are some contradictions with your statement in this post as R509LH is also not supported for accu-fish
