Know before you buy
The RVX1000 is a black box sonar module and does not include a transducer. You will need to purchase compatible RealVision 3D and 1kW CHIRP transducers separately based on your specific hull type and fishing requirements.
The RVX1000 is designed to upgrade compatible Raymarine MFDs, such as the Axiom series. It connects via RayNet, so ensure your display is compatible with external sonar modules before installation.
The module offers varying depth capabilities depending on the sonar channel used. The 1kW CHIRP sonar can reach depths of up to 5,000 feet, while the RealVision 3D, SideVision, and DownVision channels are optimized for shallower water, typically ranging from 300 to 600 feet.
The dedicated quad-core processor allows the module to process multiple sonar channels simultaneously without lag. This ensures that your 3D imagery, side-scanning, and traditional 1kW sonar remain smooth and responsive even when all channels are active at once.
GPS Track uses your boat's position data to build a real-time 3D model of the underwater terrain as you move. This allows you to create a high-resolution map of the bottom structure, which is particularly useful for identifying fish-holding spots that you might otherwise miss.
Yes, it is highly versatile. The 1kW CHIRP sonar provides the deep-water performance needed for offshore fishing, while the RealVision 3D, SideVision, and DownVision channels provide the high-detail imaging required for navigating inshore structures and locating fish in shallower water.
