What to do if my Furuno FE-800 Marine Equipment has no picture and no reading measure?
If your Furuno Marine Equipment shows no picture and no reading measure, the issue might be due to low voltage. In this case, check the supply voltage. Another cause could be a blown fuse, refer to section 3.4. Finally, the power cable might be damaged, so you should repair the cable.
Why Furuno FE-800 loses seabed display?
If you are experiencing a loss of seabed display on your Furuno Marine Equipment, first check the range scale setting because it might be out of range. Also, air bubbles caused by going astern or running over other ships’ wake can cause this issue, but this is normal and not a sign of equipment trouble.
How to fix heavy noise on Furuno FE-800 Marine Equipment?
If your Furuno Marine Equipment is showing heavy noise, it could be due to incorrect installation of the transducer. Try to find the cause of the noise, and if it persists, relocate the transducer. Another cause may be the presence of other echo sounders nearby. Unfortunately, if more than one echo sounder is operating on the ship, there isn't an ideal solution to completely resolve the problem.
What to do if Furuno FE-800 Marine Equipment has no echo sounding picture?
If your Furuno Marine Equipment isn't showing an echo sounding picture, the transducer cable might be damaged, so you should repair the cable. Another possibility is that the transducer cable connection has loosened, so you should tighten the connections.
Why is Furuno FE-800 display irregular?
If your Furuno Marine Equipment display is irregular, it may be due to low sensitivity. Try increasing the gain (refer to section 1.7). It could also be caused by low reflectivity from the seabed, suggesting a muddy seabed. Another cause could be marine life on the transducer, so remove any marine life from the transducer when the equipment is dry-docked.
What causes surface noise in Furuno FE-800?
Surface noise in your Furuno Marine Equipment can be caused by aeration in near-surface water or rough weather. These issues are not equipment problems.
