Product description

PC/VIEW
Turns your PC into a Forward Looking dual axis sonar.

Introducing the all-new Interphase PC/View. Now you can turn your shipboard laptop or desktop PC into a powerful, high-resolution forward scanning sonar. Using your PC's computing power and its high resolution color display, the PC/View provides advanced sonar features for improved underwater navigation and detection. Incorporating the same patented technology as the Interphase Probe and Sea Scout, the PC/View can scan a moving beam from side to side to help locate suspended objects, schools of bait and fish, or can be set to scan vertically from the surface to the bottom to show obstacles, underwater structure and changing bottom conditions ahead. The PC/View can also work as a high-powered conventional color depth sounder and will easily operate on the same computer with most popular marine programs including your favorite chart plotting software.

Working like an underwater radar, the PC/View can scan the waters ahead and beneath your boat looking for dangerous shoals, reefs or sandbars, schools of bait or other significant underwater objects. Easy to operate, the PC/View's interface easily attaches to your computer's parallel port and an acoustic transducer (through- hull or transom mounted). Once connected you have all the capabilities of Interphase's award winning scanning sonar technology.

NOTE: The PC/180 will not operate with Windows XP Professional Edition however it will operate with Windows XP Home Edition.

Ease of Operation
The PC/View offers numerous split screen modes that can be easily accessed. The product is truly intuitive and user friendly.

Choice of Views
Selectable views can be forward, downward, or a combination of both. The scan can be reduced to a fraction of the 90 degree sweep and then "steered" anywhere from just under the surface to directly downward for the vertical scan. The horizontal scan is 45 degrees port and 45 degrees starboard.

Split Screens
Along with the traditional split screen and navigational split screen (an industry innovation first introduced by Interphase in 1988) the PC/View offers a forward looking display, split screen or with a bottom chart view.

Forward Seeking View
The PC/View offers recreational boaters a never before available forward scan of the bottom and suspended targets. Forward range is up to six times the current water depth (in the vertical scan, and four times the depth in the horizontal scan.) with a 1,200' maximum forward display (420 watts RMS).

Durability
Like all of today's Interphase products, the PC/View is built by hand in the USA, each unit is bench tested for a minimum of 12 hours.

Value
Affordable forward scanning sonar for the recreational boater, the revolutionary PC/View is packed with a valuable depth sounder, offering screen capture modes, choice of display backgrounds, and the only computer based scanning sonar.
