No help? Hard for me to search with the iphone. Fingers too fat.
What to select from the HDS touch transducer menu.
I have the lsss2 and it works fine on my 7 toch
touch
I am speaking of the 2d/di transducer made for the elite 7. I need to know what to select from the transducer list on the hds 7 touch I have mounted.
I made the transition from the Elite 7 to the HDS7 touch. When I was using just he HDI alone I had selected the 50/200/455/800 (this is as close as I can remember the frequencies, but it is close enough that you can find it listed) from the drop down list of transducers on the HDS7.
You access this from the installation setting in the unit. When I plugged in the LSS2 I was told the unit automatically reads that unit for side and down scan. I did not change the setting I had originally selected for the HDI and the 2D works fine.
PS
Update
Just found the Lowrance info on the HDI;
The HDI transducer comes in two frequency configurations, 83/200/455/800kHz and 50/200/455/800kHz. In both instances the 455/800kHz frequencies are what produce the DownScan Image™ and either the 83/200kHz or 50/200kHz frequencies produce the traditional sonar image.
Not exactly sure how it is listed but it will be obvious when you go through the list.
With both Transducers connected you will only be using the regular on for 2D so you could select either a 83/200 or 50/200 and it should work.
