The Furuno FCV600 represents the latest evolution in professional fishfinding technology, combining the proven reliability of Furuno engineering with cutting-edge TruEcho CHIRP™ technology. This versatile 5.7-inch fishfinder delivers exceptional performance with its dual capability to drive both CHIRP and traditional CW transducers, providing unprecedented flexibility for any fishing application.

Professional Fishfinding Excellence

  • Dual Transducer Compatibility: Works with both CHIRP and CW transducers for ultimate versatility
  • TruEcho CHIRP Technology: Superior target separation and fish identification across frequency spectrum
  • 600W Power Output: Professional-grade power for deep water and challenging conditions
  • ACCU-FISH Sizing: Advanced fish size identification and depth assessment capabilities
  • RezBoost Processing: Up to 8x clearer images from conventional CW transducers

TruEcho CHIRP™: Next-Generation Sonar Technology

The FCV600's TruEcho CHIRP™ technology delivers superior fish detection by transmitting across a broad spectrum of frequencies rather than a single frequency. This revolutionary approach provides enhanced target separation, improved baitfish identification, and exceptional clarity for structure and game fish detection in all water conditions.

CHIRP Technology Benefits

  • Frequency Spectrum Transmission: 40-225 kHz CHIRP range for comprehensive water column coverage
  • Enhanced Target Separation: Clearly distinguish individual fish in schools and near structure
  • Superior Bottom Definition: Exceptional bottom contour detail and composition analysis
  • Improved Signal-to-Noise Ratio: Better performance in thermoclines and difficult conditions
  • Extended Range Performance: Consistent target identification at maximum depth ranges

ACCU-FISH™: Advanced Fish Size Assessment

The exclusive ACCU-FISH™ technology provides precise fish size identification and depth assessment capabilities, displaying individual fish sizes from 10 to 199 cm in depths ranging from 2 to 100 meters. This advanced feature helps anglers target specific fish sizes and species with unprecedented accuracy.

Fish Identification Capabilities

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between CHIRP and CW transducers with the FCV600?

CHIRP transducers transmit across a spectrum of frequencies (40-225 kHz) providing superior target separation and fish identification, while CW transducers operate on single frequencies (50/200 kHz). The FCV600 can drive both types, with TruEcho CHIRP offering enhanced performance and RezBoost technology improving CW transducer performance up to 8x.

How does the ACCU-FISH technology determine fish size?

ACCU-FISH analyzes echo return strength and characteristics to calculate fish size from 10-199cm in depths from 2-100 meters. The system uses advanced algorithms to differentiate fish targets from structure and provides real-time size assessment displayed on the sonar screen.

Can I use my existing CW transducer with the FCV600?

Yes, the FCV600 is fully compatible with existing 50/200 kHz CW transducers. The RezBoost signal processing technology will dramatically improve image quality from your existing transducer, providing up to 8x clearer images without requiring transducer replacement.

How does the wireless second display feature work?

The FCV600 creates a built-in wireless network that allows connection of a second FCV600 display unit. The second display receives real-time echo data and navigation information wirelessly, enabling monitoring from different vessel locations without additional cable installation.

What transducers are recommended for maximum performance?

For maximum 600W performance, recommended CHIRP transducers include B75H, B75HW, B75M, B785M, P75M, SS75H, SS75M, and TM165HW. For 300W applications, B75L, B150M, P95M, SS75L, and TM150M provide excellent performance. Choice depends on vessel size, installation location, and fishing applications.

How does Bottom Discrimination help with fishing?

Bottom Discrimination identifies seafloor composition (Rock, Sand, Gravel, Mud) using distinct graphical displays. This helps anglers understand fish habitat preferences, locate productive structure, and identify bottom changes that attract fish. Different species prefer different bottom compositions, making this information valuable for targeted fishing.

Manufacturer: Furuno | Model: FCV600 | Category: Fishfinder Only

Professional CHIRP fishfinder designed for serious anglers, charter captains, and commercial fishermen requiring advanced fish detection, bottom analysis, and superior sonar performance in all fishing applications.

FCV600 CHIRP Fishfinder

The 5.7” FCV600 is capable of driving either a CHIRP or dual-frequency CW (continuous wave) transducer, allowing users to configure the Fish Finder to suit almost any need. With a sleek, piano-black presentation, comfortable rubber keys, and a robust rotary knob controller, the FCV600 gives users the freedom to choose from a wide variety of transducers. The soft-touch keys are inclined at the top and bottom, making them comfortable to press while creating an easy-to-operate and intuitive system.

Sunlight and yellow color palettes offer greatly improved visibility in daylight and for those who deal with color blindness. The Color Range Expansion feature broadens the range of discrete signal intensities that can be detected and paints them in different colors. With color range expansion, the range of identifiable echoes is expanded, so you can intuitively identify bottom fish from the seabed.

Furuno’s RezBoost™ signal processing technology produces a picture that is up to 8 times clearer, breathing life into the standard CW transducer users may already have installed. A second FCV600 display can be installed to show the echoes and nav data from the FCV600 via the built-in wireless network. This simple yet powerful solution allows for continuous monitoring of the underwater situation from the stern or bow while fishing with a simplified installation.

Features:

  • 5.6” (FCV600) TruEcho CHIRP/CW Fish Finder
  • Drives either a CHIRP or CW transducer
  • Color palettes offer unbeatable daylight visibility
  • Color Range Expansion displays returns from more discreet signal frequencies for unbeatable target separation
