1 Section 1: Read Me First! How this manual can get you out on the road, fast! Welcome to the exciting world of digital sonar and GPS! We know you're anxious to begin navigating and finding fish, but we have a favor to ask. Before you grab the unit and begin installing it, please give us a moment or...

13 Section 2: Installation Preparations You can install the sonar and GPS systems in some other order if you prefer, but we recommend this installation sequence: Caution: You should read over this entire installation section before drill-ing any holes in your vehicle or vessel! 1. Determine the appr...

14 Read these instructions carefully before attempting the installation. Determine which of the mounting positions is right for your boat. Re- member, the transducer installation is the most critical part of a sonar installation. NOTE: The following installation types also call for these recommended...

16 How low should you go? For most situations, you should install your Skimmer transducer so that its centerline is level with the bottom of the boat hull. This will usually give you the best combination of smooth water flow and protection from bangs and bumps. Align transducer centerline with hull ...

17 However, the shoot-thru-hull installation does have its drawbacks. First, some loss of sensitivity does occur, even on the best hulls. This varies from hull to hull, even from different installations on the same hull. This is caused by differences in hull lay-up and construction. Second, the tran...

18 B. Two-piece bracket: Locate the four plastic ratchets in the trans- ducer's hardware package. Press two ratchets into the sides of the plas- tic bracket and two on either side of the transducer as shown in the fol- lowing illustrations. Notice there are letters molded into each ratchet. Place th...

20 Assemble transducer and bracket. 3. Assembling the transducer. A. One-piece bracket: Once you determine the correct position for the ratchets, assemble the transducer as shown in the following fig- ure. Don't tighten the lock nut at this time. Assemble transducer and bracket. B. Two-piece bracket...

21 Position transducer mount on transom and mark mounting holes. Side view shown, left, and seen from above at right. 5. Attaching transducer to transom. A. One-piece bracket: Remove the transducer from the bracket and re-assemble it with the cable passing through the bracket over the bolt as shown ...

22 Align transducer centerline with hull bottom and attach transducer to transom. Rear view of dual-frequency Skimmer shown. 6. Route the transducer cable through or over the transom to the sonar unit. Make sure to leave some slack in the cable at the transducer. If possible, route the transducer ca...

23 Trolling Motor Bracket Installation (single-frequency only) 1. Attach the optional TMB-S bracket to the transducer as shown in the following figure, using the hardware supplied with the transducer. (Note: The internal tooth washer is supplied with the TMB-S.) Attach motor mounting bracket to tran...

24 Transducer angles and their effects on fish arches. If the arch slopes up – but not back down – then the front of the trans- ducer is too high and needs to be lowered. If only the back half of the arch is printed, then the nose of the transducer is angled too far down and needs to be raised. NOTE...

25 WARNING: Do not remove any material from your inner hull unless you know the hull's composition. Careless grinding or cutting on your hull can result in damage that could sink your boat. Contact your boat dealer or manufac-turer to confirm your hull specifications. Epoxy the transducer to a solid...

27 4. Most people can get good results by following steps 1 through 3, so this step is optional . If you want to make an extra effort to be absolutely sure that your selected location will work under all conditions, make a test run with the boat on plane and observe the bottom signal. You'll need to...

28 WARNING: Use only the epoxy available from LEI. It has been for- mulated to work with these installation procedures. Other epoxy types may be too thin or may not cure to the right consistency for optimum transducer perform-ance. 2. The epoxy consists of the epoxy itself and a hardener. Remove the...

29 First find a location on the boat's transom where the water flow is smoothest. Don't mount the sensor behind strakes or ribs. These will disturb the water flow to the speed sensor. Make sure the sensor will remain in the water when the boat is on plane. Also make sure the lo- cation doesn't inter...

30 CAUTION: If you drill a hole in the transom for the cable, make sure it is located above the waterline. After installation, be sure to seal the hole with the same marine grade above- or below-waterline seal-ant used for the screws. The sensor is now ready for use. Connect the sensor to the sonar ...

31 Caution: All of the wires in the power/data cable have bare ends for eas-ier installation. The bare ends on any unused wires could cause an electrical short if left exposed. To prevent this, you should cover the individual wire ends – either by capping them with wire nuts, wrapping them with elec...

32 If possible, keep the power cable away from other boat wiring, especially the engine's wires. This will provide the best isolation from electrical noise. If the cable is not long enough, splice #18 gauge wire onto it. The display power cable has three wires, white, red and black. Red is the posit...

33 to power even if your only NMEA 2000 device is the GPS module and it is connected to the display unit's Network socket. (However, never connect multiple power sources to a NMEA 2000 network. If you have a network that is already powered, see diagram B on page 33.) Power Diagram B Use this method ...

34 If you do need to power your NMEA 2000 bus, attach the NMEA 2000 Power cable to an accessory switch as indicated in power diagram A on page 32. The NMEA 2000 Power cable's red wire should be attached (with provided 3-amp fuse) to the positive (+) terminal. The NMEA 2000 Power cable's black and sh...

35 To use the module in an automobile, you may achieve good results by simply placing the external antenna on the top of the dash, at the base of the windshield. A piece of the rubber non-skid shelf liner material avail- able in recreational vehicle supply stores will help hold the antenna in place....

39 Mounting the Unit: Bracket, In-Dash or Portable You can install your unit on the dash with the gimbal bracket. It can also be installed in the dash or mounted on a portable power supply. If you use the supplied bracket, you may be interested in the optional R-A-M ® bracket mounting system. This c...

41 After drilling the hole, pass the transducer connector up through the hole from under the dash, followed by antenna connector. Pass the power cable's bare-wire end down though the hole from the top. If you wish, you can fill in the hole around the cables with a good ma- rine caulking compound. (S...

42 Portable Installation Like many Lowrance products, the unit is capable of portable operation by using an optional portable power pack. The power pack, a magnet- equipped antenna module and an optional portable transducer, ex- pands the uses for your sonar/GPS unit. It makes it easy to transfer yo...

As this manual went to press, MMCs were available in storage capacities of 8 MB, 16 MB, 32 MB, 64 MB and 128 MB. SD cards were available with capacities of 8 MB, 16 MB...

44 Other Accessories Cleaning Towel A lint-free microfiber towel is included for cleaning the unit’s screen. The towel is highly effective in clearing away water spots, smudges and finger prints. Just wipe the screen with the dry towel — it's not neces- sary to moisten the towel with water. If the s...

45 Now that you have your unit installed, move on to Section 3, Basic So- nar Operations . There, we'll present a series of step-by-step tutorials to teach you the basics of how to operate your sonar. NOTE: When you first turn the unit on, the Map Page appears. If you'd rather start learning about G...

47 Section 3: Basic Sonar Operation This section addresses the unit's most basic sonar operations.
