Superior Awareness: No Warm-Up, Total Control
Because the DRS12ANXT is Solid-State, it features Instant-On capabilities—no more waiting for the magnetron to warm up. The Rain Mode and RezBoost™ technology ensure targets are shown clearly even through heavy squalls. For offshore fishermen, the enhanced Bird Mode is a game-changer, identifying birds feeding at a distance to lead you directly to the action. It integrates seamlessly with Furuno NavNet TZTouch2 and TZTouch3 displays.
Frequently Asked Questions
1. How does Target Analyzer™ work?
It uses the Doppler effect to color-code targets: Green for stationary or moving away, and Red for targets approaching your boat, making collision risks obvious at a glance.
2. Which antennas can be mounted on this pedestal?
The DRS12ANXT is compatible with XN10A (3.5ft), XN12A (4ft), and XN13A (6ft) antennas. A larger antenna provides a narrower beamwidth and better resolution.
