1.22 Fish Information (ACCU-FISH
)
The ACCU-FISH
feature measures the length of individual fish and tags the fish with
a fish symbol whose size is proportional to the length of the fish. The length or depth
of the fish can be indicated digitally.
Notice for the ACCU-FISH feature
This feature requires an appropriate transducer. For the transducer compatible with
this feature, see "EQUIPMENT LISTS" on the installation manual (IME-23860).
For FCV-1900G, close the fish size histogram window to use the ACCU-FISH
.
The fish length calculated by this fish finder is intended for reference purposes; it is
not a completely accurate measurement of fish length.
The echo strength of a school of fish changes according to the fish. When the size
shown on the fish size histogram differs from the actual size, adjust [Fish Size] on
the [Calib] menu to compensate for the difference (see page 2-7).
A fish whose depth is shallower than 2 m can not be measured. Also, the maximum
range depends on the transducer’s performance, installation location, and seastate.
If the [Zero Line Rejection] on the [Calib] menu is turned on, the fish whose depth
is shallower than the transmission line can not be measured.
With the inside-hull transducer, signal attenuation changes according to the trans-
ducer’s frequency. Therefore, a fish may not be detected or the fish length indicated
may be smaller than actual length.
In case of a school of fish, echoes overlap one another, so the margin of error will
be greater.
The TX pulse length changes according to ACCU-FISH
On/Off state. This causes
a difference in both sensitivity and the echoes viewed.
