Accuracy 20ft

Looks like your map drawing is off and not the GPS. Your known accuracy is 'within 20 feet'.
Maybe look for a different brand chart for your area.

Edd

Thanks NoCal for the update. I am using a Carbon and an EVO3 at my console but I do still have a Gen3 at the stern. I will play with the tides on the Gen3 next trip to the SAC.

Edd

Press MENU 2X > SYSTEM > GPS
This should bring up your satellites page and if you look to the right you will see 'Accuracy__ft' or EPE.

Edd

Yes...I'm sorry but your invoice is correct...I meant PDT not PDRT. Moving on, do you see the temp sensor on the transom? If so, then your selection of the PDRT-WBL is the correct choice and your temp will be from the remote sensor.

Sorry for the confusion.

Edd

Both of your 9's will auto recognize the LSS-2. On your shoot-thru look for the PD-WBL. If you have the correct xdcr and not the PDRT-WBL. PDRT has water temp and PD does not, so, units will now get water temp from LSS-2. If you do have PDRT-WBL you would need to pull the correct pin from the connec...

Edd

Go to the SYSTEM menu and select Satellites....tell me what it says for EPE.

Edd

I think you mean, 'The drawing of the shoreline is off'?

Edd

I am sure you will see benifits in all the freqs. and I tell all my customers to switch back and forth and also go side by side. I use H/wide CHIRP most all the time, even in the shallow river system.

Edd

Check to see if StructureScan is turned ON under Features in Advanced menu.

Edd

This is one of 'those' questions that can have many answers. So, you can run the OEM transducers out of water for quite a while without damage, but, if something should happen, there may not be any warranty. Running out of water will not hurt the MFD in any way. High wattage transducers such as Air...

Edd

What did you have and what did you replace it with? New? Used? One you already had? How did you set the unit up?
What transducers? Which networks do you have?

Now go catch some fish!

Edd

Do you have any screen shots to share?
What have you selected for chart source, Lowrance or Navionics?

Edd

Not sure what the problem could be. I get some tide stations when my boat is in my shop stall, some 150 miles away from me. It may have something to do with the buoy transmission region.

Edd

No. The unit will automatically display tide info from the nearest tide station. You can however, select and display tide info from any of the tide stations listed in the menu at the top (tap the box where the current tide location is listed for the dropdown list).

Edd

It is the same cable as for HDS

Edd

Thanks Edd, It is nice to have someone that you can ask question and get a quick reply. If you only knew what 'outside' forces Ken and I are up against on a daily routine.... It's really hard for me to get to the forums on a daily basis so I'm happy I could answer your question in a timely manner. ...

Edd

Yes, LGC-4000 or even Point-1 will work for your LMS.

Edd

I would start with 'Generic 200 kHz' and, from what I have read, your should select the Shallow Water fishing mode. I would also try the 'Fresh Water' mode.

Edd

What you have isn't what we refer to as a 'puck' style transducer. It is instead, a transom mount style mounted on your trolling motor. To use the same style and have both 2D and DownImaging views, you should get P/N 000-10976-001 and this fits the standard blue connector. This will give you choices...

Edd

Look on the silver tag just in front of the connector for the Model/Part number.

Edd

You have a $1000 add-on, why not make the effort to learn the curve?
Lots of video on youtube on how to use it and what you see.

Edd

No, it will not auto update.

Turn ON Gen3 > Turn ON StructureScan 3D > put SD card into unit >
Go to files and highlight the SD card > select the SS3D update > select UPDATE

Edd

Edd

This may be helpful to a few.

Edd

You likely don't have much of a file to d/l since the internal memory of the HDS is very small. You should record sonar logs DIRECTLY to your SD card. Try uploading the file with the FREE Insight Genesis upload tool to the IG site.

Edd

Are you talking about StructureScan Down Imaging logs?

NoCal is right. Can you text me a pic of your 2nd question? 559-916-9145

Edd

Are you looking for one-on-one on the water?

Edd

Try this first.... Plug the TotalScan into the xSonic of the HDS. Then plug the other transducer into the 7-pin connector and see if you can't manipulate this by unplugging the TotalScan when you go fast. But to answer your question, YES, by replacing TotalScan with LSS-HD would eliminate the proble...

Edd

It IS possible . The simple way for you to do this would be to connect both transducers to the HDS7 Gen3. The TotalScan would plug into the xSonic (9-pin) and the thru-hull into the 7-pin connector. Now, you could reselect transducers through the installation menu depending on your choice, or you ca...

Get yourself a handheld compass and check that area for ANY magnetic action. If you find some magnetic draw, try to pinpoint the source. You may need to reposition your Point-1 module to correct this.

Edd

Is your always 90* off from your actual heading? May have some magnetic interference.

Edd

Try backing up your waypoints trails and routes to an SD. Reset to factory settings. Now update to latest firmware version.

Edd

So the correct way to make these connections are as follows: Connect the LSS xdcr to the module. Supply power to the module using switched 12vdc. Connect an Ethernet cable from the module to each MFD. Now turn it on. Also check Menu>Settings>Advanced>Features>StructureScan and make sure it is ON. If...

Edd

LGC-4000 or the Point-1

Edd

Bass Hack I have never had that happen, but, while underway I have had other boats wave action push me off my route. This is caused from not having a true heading sensor. The Point-1AP helps but still, not a real heading sensor. I fixed my problem by adding the Precision-9 compass. Now when wave act...

It has been a looooong time but try this.
Put up the screen you like then push and hold the hot key. I think.

It is free but not sure it is available for ios.

what transdeucer comes with the HDS 9 Gen 3. I jus bought the HDS 9 Gen 3 with structure scan trans and the 83/200khz but 83/200 khz looks a lot smaller than the 83/200 that came with my HDS 7 GEN 2 touch. Is my Gen 2 touch trans better than the small one for the Gen 3 ???????? What are the part #'...

Edd

For the transom you can use #000-0106-72 HST-WSBL For shoot thru you can use 000-0106-89 which comes with external temp sensor. For a TM mounting use the #000-0106-74 which comes with the internal temp sensor. Alternatively you could use the HST-WSBL on the TM but would require a mounting kit. I bel...

Edd

Why not just plug the new LGC into the current setup to see if it works?

Edd

How about some pics of the transom? Underneath, from the sides, and dead away.

Edd

Morgan this is not for release to gen public just yet. No idea of good date yet.

Edd

TotalScan transducer does NOT givr you 3D. You must use the 3D module and transducer for 3D.
