Product Overview
SCS-1000 CHIRP Echo Sounder Module
Turns your chartplotter into a CHIRP Echo Sounder The SI-TEX CHIRP Echo Sounder is designed to be easily connected and combined with SI-TEX NavPro multifunction chartplotters* to turn it into an Echo Sounder.
Transducer compatibility
CHIRP Echo Sounder is compatible with both AIRMAR CHIRP and CW transducers, and with Radarsonics CW transducers. It can be coupled with various types of transducers: plastic stern thru hull, in hull, or bronze thru hull.
Operation frequency & display mode
Operation frequency may vary depending on the model of transducers. CHIRP Echo Sounder supports double frequency mode for CW transducers. Dual mode splits the "Fish Finder" page into two parts. Each part displays the echogram for the predefined frequency.
Automatic detection
CHIRP Echo Sounder automatically detects the connected AIRMAR transducers. The Xducer ID® detection system automatically selects the power output and configures the parameters to suit the transducer.
Advanced filtering
CHIRP Echo Sounder features advanced filtering, that eliminates unwanted noise and sharpens echoes to enhance separation and detection.
Zero line
CHIRP Echo Sounder supports Zero Line rejection: Depending on the transmission line of a transducer, you can increase or decrease "Zero Line Area" values.
History
CHIRP Echo Sounder allows access to the echoes history received by the transducer. Frequency view history includes approximately 2048 echoes.
Point on map
CHIRP Echo Sounder supports point on map function. This feature allows the user to place a Mark on the echogram and then find and check it later on the map.
*Compatible with: Explorer NavPro, NavPro-900, NavPro-1200 Only
