Simrad S2009 Fish Finder
The Simrad S2009 Fish Finder combines
CHIRP-enabled Broadband Sounder™ sonar with a 9-inch portrait display for
maximum vertical detail, and intuitive keypad-driven operation for reliable
control in all conditions. This dedicated echosounder integrates seamlessly with
multifunction display and Simrad glass bridge systems, while offering charter
captains and long-range sportfishing vessels the reliability of a self-contained
sonar platform. Robust yet compact, the S2009 supports either bracket or
flush-mount installation for an easy fit aboard any vessel.
Key Features
- Dedicated fish finder with integrated
Broadband Sounder™ module and CHIRP technology
- High depth penetration and ping speed
- Vertical heave compensation
- 9-inch portrait display
- High brightness ideal for outside
installation
- See clearly with White Line, White Marker,
and Colour Erase features
- Simple operation with 8 direct-access menu
keys
- Bracket and flush mounting options (bracket
included)
- Ethernet, NMEA0183 & NMEA2000 connectivity*
*Simrad Commercial S2009 and S2016 products
currently only support limited Ethernet networking capabilities to Simrad BSM-2
and BSM-3 sounders. Full Ethernet networking to the Simrad line of Displays and
ECDIS, as well as the SonarHub sounder module will be implemented in the RTM2
software release expected delivery June 2016.
Integrated Broadband Sounder™ Module
The S2009 includes an integrated Broadband
Sounder™ module with plug-and-play transducer port, compatible with Simrad and
Airmar transducers equipped with blue 7-pin connectors. Adapters are available
to allow easy and cost-effective retrofit of existing Simrad, Airmar, and other
third-party transducers.
CHIRP Technology
CHIRP sonar technology uses frequency-swept
pulses to deliver higher resolution, improved target separation, and greater
image clarity than traditional sonar. Simrad technology makes CHIRP available
not just on special-purpose CHIRP transducers, but also via traditional
single-frequency transducers. Vessels with a suitable transducer already
installed can add CHIRP simply by installing an S2000-series Fish Finder,
offering an extremely cost-effective upgrade.
Vertical Heave Compensation
If you’ve used your sounder in heavy seas, you
may have noticed a ‘wavy’ or corrugated pattern to the sea floor on your
display. Heave compensation works with a compatible satellite compass, such as
the Simrad HS60 or HS70, to eliminate the vertical effects of wave action from
sonar depth measurements. This counters the ‘wavy’ distortion on screen,
enhancing the accuracy of bottom tracking in rough conditions.
9-inch Portrait Display
The S2009 maximises screen size where limited
mounting space is available, with a compact 9-inch portrait display that’s
perfect for centre consoles. Its vertical layout is well suited to sportfishing,
displaying the water column with a high level of detail and making it easy to
distinguish individual fish arches and other key features.
White Line, White Marker and Colour Erase
The S2009 Fish Finder offers a range of features
to quickly and easily adjust the on-screen image to suit the task at hand.
- White Line clearly separates the water
column from the bottom with a high-contrast white line, for enhanced bottom
visibility.
- White Marker allows any user-selected
colour from the fish finder image to be replaced with high-contrast white,
highlighting specific sonar echoes corresponding to fish or other targets of
interest.
- Colour Erase allows any selected colour
to be blended into the background, eliminating unwanted noise or unimportant
features from the display.
Keypad Operation with Direct-Access Menu Keys
The S2009 is operated by an integrated keypad and
rotary dial. Direct-access menu keys beside the display provide intuitive
control of on-screen menu options, for one-button access to key settings and
features. With reliable, long-life operation and clear tactile feedback, the
S2009’s large buttons are suitable for use in rough seas, while travelling at
speed, and with wet or gloved hands.
Rugged Design with Flexible Mounting Options
Designed to meet the needs of serious offshore
sportfishing enthusiasts and commercial fishing operators, the S2009 supports
either flush-mount installation in a console or dash, or bracket mounting with
an included gimbal bracket. Watertight rear connectors mean the S2009 is IPX7
water-resistant from all sides, in either type of installation.
Networking & Expansion
The S2009 includes Ethernet connectivity to share
sonar data with other Simrad systems including NSS evo2 and NSO evo2
multifunction displays. The S2009 may also be used as a dedicated fish finder
display for the built-in Broadband Sounder™ module on NSS evo2 systems, freeing
your multifunction display for other purposes such as navigation, radar, or
StructureScan® 3D imaging.
Other devices may be networked via the S2009’s
NMEA 2000® and NMEA 0183® ports, enabling additional functionality such as
marking a waypoint on your chartplotter via the fish finder’s history display to
revisit a promising spot.
Insight Genesis Compatible
The S2009 is capable of recording sonar history
to a full-sized SD memory card, easily inserted and removed via a waterproof
access hatch on the front panel. Recorded sonar logs can then be uploaded from
your PC or Mac to the cloud-based Insight Genesis™ service, which automatically
creates custom fishing charts for use on your compatible Simrad chartplotter.
