I have a HDS5 so the menus should be fairly close. Go into the 'Menu' select 'Settings' then hit 'Sonar Installation' and you can adjust the 'Keel Offset'. Hope this helps.

Side Imaging has just a few settings. Contrast on Ky. Lake is 62, 800 KHZ in shallow water and I use the Brown Palette . Seat time is the short answer. I have been running 2 HDS 10's with 2 LSS-1's for a couple years and I still find something new on settings. Read the Manual and things start making since after a while. Here are 2 excellent sites to get questions answered.
