I decided to make an adapter instead of cutting off the connector on the LSS 2 ...

Beings as the LSS 2 does not have a 200kHz 2d beam (and the HB SI requires it for depth)... I used the HB AS SIDB Y cable to make the adapter...

The "Dual Beam" leg of the AS SIDB Y cable hooks directly up to any HB xducer that has 83/200kHz capability to get the 200kHz beam for depth in the HB SI unit..

The "Side Image" leg of the AS SI DB Y cable...I did this to...



Then ..I took a Lowrance XT-10BLK extension cable and cut the female end off...

I wired the female end of the Lowrance extension cable to the "Side Image" leg of the HB AS SIDB Y cable that you see in the above pic...

This gave me an adapter cable that would plug into the male connector of the LSS 2 on 1 leg of the AS SIDB Y cable ...and a HB 200Khz Dual Beam xducer on the other leg of the AS SIDB Y cable...

Then it plugs right into the back of my 1197 ...

I'll be posting more pix when I get it a little more "forum ready" ...
