SD card slot Used for optional Navionics or InsightHD chart data, software updates, transfer of user data and system backup. The card reader door is opened by lightly pressing and sliding the door to the left, then pulling forward from the left side. The card reader door should always be shut immediately after inserting or removing a card, in order to prevent possible water ingress. ¼ Note: The HDS-9 and 12 Displays have two card readers, the HDS-7 has one. | 9 HDS Gen2 Touch overview | HDS

Display Installation Mounting location 3 Choose the mounting locations carefully before you drill or cut. The display should be mounted so that the operator can easily use the controls and clearly see the display screen. Be sure to leave a direct path for all of the cables. Lowrance displays are high-contrast and anti-reflective, and are viewable in direct sunlight, but for best results install the display out of direct sunlight. The chosen location should have minimal glare from windows o

Bracket mounting Place the bracket in the desired mounting location, and use a pencil or permanent marker to mark drilling locations. ¼ Note: ensure that the chosen location has enough height to accomodate the display fitted in the bracket, and allows tilting of the display. Also adequate space is required on both sides to allow tightening and loosening of the knobs. Use fasteners suited to the mounting surface material. If the material is too thin for self tappers, reinforce it, or mount b

Mounting the transducer Transducer location selection and installation are two of the most critical steps in sonar installation. To function properly the transducer must be in the water at all times, and in a location that 4 has a smooth flow of water when the boat is moving. Research Before starting the installation of the transducer, it’s advised to check the following; • Find out if the boat builder has a recommended installation location • Establish direction of rotation of the propell

¼ Note: Boats with strakes or ribs on the hull can create large amounts of turbulence at higher speeds. A good transducer location on these types of boats is between the ribs closest to the engine. ¼ Note: If the transducer is not placed in a smooth flow of water, interference caused by bubbles and turbulence may show on- screen in the form of random lines or dots. The unit could also lose bottom signal when the boat is on plane. ¼ Note: Trim tabs will vary in the amount of turbulence they

Secure the cable to the hull at regular intervals using cable P clips or saddles and ensure that moving parts such as an outboard motor or boarding ladder can’t snag the cable. Adjusting the transducer If the sounder image shows interference lines on the screen when moving, which worsen with speed, it may be possible to eliminate these by adjusting the transducer’s angle. ¼ Note: A transducer that is tilted too far in either direction will not perform well, missing targets, and/or losin

Power connection HDS Gen2 Touch displays are designed to be powered by a 12 V DC system. They are protected against reverse polarity, under voltage and over voltage. The plug of the supplied power cable has two discrete cables exiting from it. The thickest cable provides the following: • power into the system (Red and Black wires) • remote turn-on for certain Navico expansion modules (Yellow wire) 4 1 2 3 _ 5 + 6 1 HDS display rear (9 & 12 connector arrangement shown) 2 Power cable 3 12 V
