HE-2910 Chirp Sounder

Hondex newest range of sounders offer full chirp, or CW operation.

Frequency ranges from 38Khz to 220Khz are available from this unit.

The HE-2910 offers heave input from most NMEA0183 compliant Satellite Compass units. 3 minutes of rewind history, TLL output for use with any TLL/WPL compatible plotter. Standard NMEA output of Depth, Hardness, Target etc information. Hardness output is compatible with TimeZero & OLEX. DVI/HDMI video output allowing larger display areas. Fish sizing esimation, along with 3 user preset modes.

Standard/conventional frequencies are also available which can be used with almost any manufacturers transducers.

HE-1270 Multibeam Sonar

Hondex newest sonar, the HE-1270offers a unique solution to multibeam sonar installation. This 12.1" Omni-Directional sonar has a fixed 45degree beam angle - giving a fixed depth-to scan area. In 30Mtr depths the sonar can scan 30Mtr either side of the vessel. The sonar also offers a wide and narrow conventional echosounder view, for searching and pinpointing fish school/ potential fishing areas.

The transducer is a flat face design, meaning there is no hoist unit, no tube and no transducer hanging BELOW the keel. This design greatly reduces installation costs, and also removes the need to regularly service/maintin the transducer.

HDX-121

HDX-121 is a new designed plotter/sounder combination unit from Hondex. Running on Linux technology, this combination unit is fast, reliable, and produces amazing sounder images while mapping the seafloor on the inbuilt plotter.

This 12.1" unit has an inbuilt GPS, VGA output, 800x600 resolution, 1-2KW sounder at 50/200Khz, offers sounder 'rewind' function, on screen hardness graph, and can record both the seafloor and hardness contours all from within the unit.

The HDX-121 has a CMAP SD card reader slot; any CMAP SD chart card can be used. The unit has multiple NMEA input/output ports, can accept a wide range of NMEA data, and can output many different formats including hardness data (if required) for external plotting.

This unit can map hardness and depth contours directly onto the inbuilt plotter, and colour them accordingly. Seafloor data can then be saved onto either an SD card, or a standard USB device.
