Furuno FCV 295

[Jsaronitman]

FCV 295 I have a Airmar R109LM hooked up it, is it possible to hook up a second ducer to the unit, if so new Transducer will be a Furuno B275LMW

 

[TheReaper]

No. There is only 1 connection for low freq and one for high frequency. Depending on the transducer, the low or high frequency connection may be connected to a medium frequency.

Thank you.. now if I wanted to just hook up the B275LMW to my fcv295 what would be the wiring diagram for that ducer to machine, and correct settings to select transducer

I looked on Airmar's webpage and don't find a B275LMW...I find a B275LHW. Is that what you mean?

 

[TheReaper]

If it is the B275LHW, here's a document that will help in your install.

 

[Jsaronitman]

Yes LHW

 

[TheReaper]

Yes LHW

Ok. Then my previous reply has the instructions.

 

[Jsaronitman]

Mahalo for your help

Jsaronitman,

I've found that when testing the B275LHW that is really performs well with the FCV295 when you select the following frequencies: 42kHz for the Low Frequency, and 155kHz for the High Frequency.

Keep in mind that these following frequencies have been "locked-out" on the FCV295 due to combating any potential inverter noise:
53-65kHz, 111-139kHz, and 171-183kHz.

Do you know if the R109lM, bolt up pattern is the same as the R109LMH thinking of taking out my LM and putting in the LMH back into the same holes

 

[Jsaronitman]

That’s a thru hull

Jsaronitman,

Yes the R109 series transducers all use the same housing and have the same bolt patterns. The only difference between these transducers are the transducer's elements.
