JFS-80

 

Features

The JFS-80 is low cost and very compact sonar, offering omni-directional scanning, which is unique for its class, with a detection range as broad as large sonar’s.

 

Remarkably compact

The JFS-80 color scanning sonar is a remarkably compact sonar with omni directional scanning, a unique model for its class, offering a detection range as broad as large sonar’s. It is also equipped with a fish-school tracking function, previously available only on large sonar’s, which enables the ship to pursue the fish-schools while it is running. By entering a ‘fish mark’ on a targeted echo, the fish-school volume can be indicated numerically, which makes it easy to determine the fish-school volume and density. It is also possible to multiple echoes for more efficient fishing.

 

Fish-school track

For easy pursuit of fish-schools, the JFS-80 supports the fish-school track function that normally is only provided on larger sonar’s. To monitor fish-school tracks continuously, the tilt angle of the pulse beam automatically adjusts to the movement of the ship.

 

Fish-school volumes

By entering a ‘fish mark’ on the echo of a targeted fish-school, the volume of the fish-school can be calculated and indicated numerically. This function makes it easy to determine the fish-school volume and density, and also enables comparison of multiple echoes.

 

Easy operation

By pressing the ‘CUSTOM’ key, it returns to your normal (and customized) display. There is also the convenient ‘IMAGE MODE’ switch, which lets you select optimum settings without the need for the nagging ‘sensitivity and interference rejection’ adjustments.

 

Two-unit design

Considering the JFS-80 consists of a display and a transducer unit, it is compact enough to fit neatly in a small boat.
