X-Class: The Elite Radar Performance
The DRS6AX pedestal features a redesigned gearbox that is significantly lighter and operates more quietly than previous models. When integrated with a Furuno NavNet TZTouch system, users gain access to Fast Target Tracking™ (TT), which tracks up to 30 targets simultaneously. It also features an enhanced Bird Mode, allowing offshore fishermen to locate birds feeding on schools of fish at great distances—a tactical advantage for any serious angler.
Frequently Asked Questions
1. Which Open Array Antennas fit this pedestal?
The DRS6AX is compatible with Furuno XN10A (3.5ft), XN12A (4ft), and XN13A (6ft) antennas. A larger antenna will provide a narrower beamwidth for superior target separation.
2. Does it require an external Power Supply Unit (PSU)?
Depending on your NavNet display model and power source (12V vs 24V), you may need a PSU-017 or PSU-012. Please consult your system diagram for compatibility.
