Designed to suit a wide range of sport fishing, cruising and sailing applications the GPSMAP 7407xsv offers ease operation of the integrated chart plotter and sonar functions. The unit includes built-in dual CHIRP sonar plus CHIRP DownVu and CHIRP SideVu scanning sonar to provide the clearest images on the water. Its internal 10 Hz GPS updates the vessels position and heading 10 times per second. The Garmin GPSMAP 7408xsv is fully network capable, including Garmin Network and NMEA 2000, and offers the conveniences of built-in Wi-Fi connectivity and NMEA 0183 support .
The built-in sonar capabilities of the GPSMAP 7408xsv include 1 kW dual CHIRP sonar, the most sophisticated sonar technology available (transducers sold separately). Dual CHIRP sonar provides outstanding clear target separation and definition, putting even more energy onto the target than CHIRP. It has the ability to show low/high, med/high or low/med on the screen at the same time, enhancing the users ability to distinguish between game fish and balls of bait fish. The unit utilises both a CHIRP DownVu and CHIRP SideVu scanning sonar that provide nearly photographic sonar images of fish and structure that passes below the vessel. Garmin DownVu and SideVu provide the clearest scanning sonar images on the water. Also supported are 50 kHz/200 kHz, 77 kHz/200 kHz and Minn Kotau and MotorGuideu trolling motor transducers (sold separately). GPSMAP also includes sonar-recording capability that coordinates the timing of the sonar return with the boat''s position and saves digital information for playback on a computer using HomePort planning software .
Full network compatibility allows the user to add additional capabilities to the vessel. GPSMAP 7408xsv supports radar, autopilot, instruments, multiple screens, FUSION-Link, sensors, remote sonar modules, digital switching, thermal cameras, GRID rotary knob, joystick and keypad control, and more .
Add a Garmin open array or dome radar, including the powerful xHD2 open array radars or xHD dome radars that pairs ease of use with advanced open array features. GPSMAP 7408xsv allows the sharing features with other compatible GPSMAP units, such as sonar, radar, supplemental maps and user data, including waypoints, routes and tracks. User data entered into one chartplotter can be automatically synced with other chartplotters in a network .
Fast, responsive 10 Hz GPS/GLONASS refreshes the boats position and heading 10 times each second to make movement on the screen more fluid. Two microSD card slots provide expandable memory for accessory map purchases the user may require while the FUSION-Link allows control of all compatible FUSION-Link-enabled audio systems directly from the compatible chartplotter display .
The GND 10 black box interface (purchased separately) seamlessly integrates Nexus instruments and sensors with the Garmin family. It converts data between the Nexus network and NMEA 2000 to provide trouble-free compatibility between Nexus and Garmin products .
Garmin Helm allows the user to view and control any compatible Garmin chartplotter from a compatible smartphone or tablet while providing enhanced situational awareness for the mariner. Easily switches between portrait and landscape mode to accommodate mounting preferences .
The Enhanced Auto Guidance allows the location to where you want to go and patented Garmin Auto Guidance technology instantly searches through relevant charts to create a safe virtual pathway on the display that helps avoid low bridges, shallow water and other charted obstructions en-route .
The user can also save any plotted Auto Guidance paths for future navigation by backing them up on an SD card with the BlueChart g2 Vision or Lake Vu HD Ultra cartography. Note; HD Ultra SD card required for this technology .
The Garmin GPSMAP 7408xsv has the ability to be matched to one of the outstanding Panoptix Down transducers to provide three remarkable views, allowing fish in the water column to be seen in 3-D, from the bottom to the surface.
