Why does noise or interference appear on my Furuno Sonar screen?
If you're seeing noise or interference on your Furuno Sonar screen, it could be due to several reasons. First, check if the gain setting is too high. A poor ground connection could also be the cause. Additionally, ensure that cables from other equipment are not too close to the Surface Processor Unit. Finally, a noise problem might be the root cause, so inspect the cable, winch, and slip ring using a test cable.
What to do if the Furuno TS-331A image undulates on a CRT monitor?
If the image on your Furuno Sonar's CRT monitor undulates, a magnetic field-generating device (like a rectifier or transformer) might be too close to the monitor. To identify the culprit, turn off all equipment and then turn them on one by one. Also, try increasing the distance between the interfering equipment and the Surface Processor Unit.
