RVX1000 RealVision fishfinder module with 1kW sounder, DownVision, SideVision and RealVision 3D

The RVX1000 RealVision sounder module (reference E70511) is a "black box" processing unit designed to enhance Raymarine navigation systems that are compatible. It adds advanced underwater detection capabilities, including traditional 1kW CHIRP sonar, DownVision, SideVision, and RealVision 3D.

The RVX1000 integrates multiple sounder technologies:

Traditional 1 kW CHIRP sounder: For fish detection and seabed reading at significant depths.
DownVision: Provides a near-photographic view of structures directly beneath the boat.
SideVision: Enables lateral exploration of underwater structures and fish schools.
RealVision 3D: Delivers a three-dimensional representation of the underwater world, helping to identify the exact position of fish and structures.

The DownVision technology uses ultra-wide CHIRP beams to scan the seabed directly beneath the boat. It generates images with near-photographic clarity of submerged structures and fish, enabling easy identification of wrecks, reefs, and other underwater features.

The SideVision technology uses CHIRP beams aimed laterally to scan large areas on each side of the boat. This allows anglers and navigators to quickly locate structures, fish schools, and changes in bottom topography over a wide area without having to pass directly overhead.

The RealVision 3D provides an immersive, highly detailed three-dimensional view of the underwater world. Its advantages include:

Intuitive understanding of underwater topography.Ability to visualize the exact position of fish relative to structures.Better planning of drift and fishing strategies.The ability to rotate, tilt, and zoom the 3D view to explore from all angles.

The RVX1000 module integrates a traditional CHIRP fishfinder with a 1 kW power output. This power enables reliable fish detection and precise seabed reading to significant depths, depending on the connected transducer and water conditions.

No, the RVX1000 module is a "black box" processing unit. It must be connected to a compatible Raymarine multifunction display (such as the Axiom series) to view sounder data and control its functions. It has no built-in screen and cannot operate autonomously.

A "black box" module (or "data logger") is an electronic processing unit that has no direct user interface (such as a screen or buttons). It is designed to be discreetly installed and connects to a compatible multifunction display that serves as the interface for viewing data and controlling the device. This allows information to be centralized on a single screen and reduces clutter at the helm station.

The RVX1000 module has the following dimensions:

Length: 299.4 mmWidth: 269.6 mmHeight: 84.5 mmIt is designed for discreet installation thanks to its "black box" design.

No, the RVX1000 module is sold separately. It requires connection to compatible transducers (not included) to fully utilize its DownVision, SideVision, RealVision 3D capabilities, as well as the traditional 1kW CHIRP fishfinder.

The RVX1000 is compatible with several types of Raymarine transducers:

RealVision 3D transducers (RV-100, RV-200, RV-300, RV-400 series) for DownVision, SideVision, and RealVision 3D technologies. Raymarine’s traditional CHIRP transducers from the CPT-S series. Airmar CHIRP transducers rated at 1kW, via an appropriate adapter, for traditional CHIRP sounders.

The RVX1000 module is a "black box" unit designed for fixed and discreet installation. It features four mounting zones and a 6.0 mm material thickness for secure attachment. It can be installed in a technical compartment, under the dashboard, or in another sheltered location, away from excessive moisture and electromagnetic interference.

Yes, the RVX1000’s traditional 1 kW CHIRP sounder is compatible with low, medium, or high CHIRP frequencies, depending on the connected 1 kW Airmar CHIRP transducer and the adapter used. This allows flexibility to adapt to different fishing environments and depths.

Raymarine recommends installation by a Raymarine-certified installer to ensure optimal performance and benefit from enhanced warranty coverage. While installation instructions are provided, knowledge of marine electronics wiring and system integration is useful.

To register your purchase and benefit from all Raymarine warranty benefits, you must visit the official Raymarine website (www.raymarine.com) and follow the online registration process. The device's serial number, located on the packaging, will be required during this step.

The RVX1000 module is a sealed unit and contains no user-serviceable components. For maintenance, it is recommended to:

Keep the unit clean and dry, using a soft cloth and a neutral household detergent if necessary. Ensure cable connections are secure and free of corrosion. For any service or repair requests, contact an authorized Raymarine distributor. Unauthorized servicing voids the warranty.
