    Default White Lines on HDS 7 Touch Gen 2 with SS


    So I was out today using my side scan and down scan when all of a sudden I started seeing white lines showing up on my left side scan image and down scan image as well. The right side scan image was completely normal. I have attached a photo of when the issue began. All I could show is down scan for the time being but just to give y'all an idea what it is. Any idea? Could it be interference from the actual sonar transducer itself? Or a setting by chance?

    Heres another image with the issue as well. Like I said it only appears on left side scan and down scan. The 2d sonar transducer is off to the left and a hair lower than the lss2 transducer. Could this possibly be interference between the two?

    I would think if it was your 2d td position (unless it moved) would've shown up before now. Also it would show up as a horizontal line at the top of the screen on the ds. The LSS td is supposed to be lower than the 2d though. I'd check all connections just to make sure they were secure. It could be you structure scan td going bad although I've rarely heard of this happening.

    Was there another unit running on the boat at the same time ... ??

    I've even seen those when I was close enough to another boat that I was getting interference from his SI ...

    I am seeing that on my 1197. I did find out that when I am using SI I have to trim my big motor up because the transducer is seeing the lower unit. Transducer is located on the driver side of a Crestliner.

    Yes I have 2 HDS 7 Gen 2 touches up on the drivers console. I did notice that my lss2 xducer had flipped up a bit so I'm going to readjust that and see if that fixes it. It was angled higher than the 2d sonar xducer

    Both units up front are networked together via Ethernet through the structure scan module.
