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 or bright objects.
Ensure that any holes cut are in a safe position and will not weaken
the boat’s structure. If in doubt, consult a qualified boat builder.
Before cutting a hole in a panel, make sure that there are no hidden
electrical wires or other parts behind the panel.
Do not mount any part where it can be used as a hand hold, where
it might be submerged, or where it will interfere with the operation,
launching or retrieving of the boat.
If bracket mounting the display, choose an area where the display
will not be subjected to excessive vibration.
The mounting location will affect the internal GPS receiver. Test the
unit in it’s intended location to ensure satisfactory reception. An
external GPS source may be added to overcome poor reception
areas.
Leave sufficient clearance to connect all relevant cables.
Good ventilation is required. Inadequate ventilation may cause the
display to overheat. Lowrance displays are designed to operate in
temperatures from -15° C to +55° C (+5° F to +131° F).
For overall width and height requirements, please see the
dimensions section on page 29.
!
Warning: When installing the displays, ensure appropriate
safety equipment is used, eg. ear muffs, protective glasses, gloves
and a dust mask.
Power tools may exceed safe noise levels, and can cast off
dangerous protectiles.
The dust from many materials commonly used in boat
construction may cause irritation or damage to eyes, skin, and
lungs.

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 bracket with
machine screws and large washers. Use only 304 or 316 stainless
steel fasteners. Mark the screw locations using bracket as template,
and drill pilot holes.
Screw down the bracket.
Mount the display to the bracket using the knobs. Hand tighten
only. The ratchet teeth in the bracket and display case ensure a
positive grip and prevent the unit changing from the desired angle.

Cut away excess paper, and tape down the template. Check it is
correctly aligned to a vertical or horizontal reference. Do not use a
bubble level as vessel may be listing! Adjust where required.
Drill all marked pilot holes, then using an appropriate saw, cut
through the template and mounting surface, along the dotted line
bordering the shaded center of the template.
Remove the bezel from the display, using a fingernail or small flat
screwdriver, starting at the edges that are closest to the card reader
door.
Check the fit of the display, and use a file to remove any remaining
obstructions. If water-tightness is required, apply a thin, continuous
bead of sealant to the back of the display prior to final installation.
Sealant should be of a‘neutral cure’type to prevent damage to
the plastics. Secure the display with the supplied screws. Once
screws are fully tightened, ensure there is complete contact with
the mounting surface. Lastly, fit the bezel with the card reader door
open; insert the outermost tabs on the bezel in to the slots on the
display, then gently press down the bezel above and below the card
reader door till it clicks in to place.

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
has a smooth flow of water when the boat is moving.
4
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 propeller(s)
Watch actual water flow when boat is travelling at cruising speed to
determine the area of transom with cleanest flow (least bubbles)
Select a transducer location
The primary aim is to stay clear of propeller and hull generated
turbulence, while mounting the transducer as close to the center of
the vessel as possible.
1
2 3
5
4
1 Avoid mounting within 1m (3.3’) to port of propeller
2 Conventional clockwise propeller rotation
3 Avoid mounting within 7.5cm (3“) to starboard of propeller
4 Best mounting location - undisturbed water flow
5 Planing strake - avoid mounting behind here
¼
Note: Reverse the distance guides (1 & 3) from propeller where
engine is of counterclockwise configuration.

¼
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.
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 create as
they are adjusted, stay clear of these.
Attaching the transducer
The transducer should be installed parallel with the transom’s
waterline, not the bottom of the boat (deadrise).
¼
Note: Ensure the entire bottom surface of the transducer hangs
at least couple of millimetres (1/16ths of an inch) lower than the
bottom of the hull.
Hold the transducer with bracket up to the transom of the boat
and trace the slotted screw hole locations (two on the 83/200 KHz
transducer, and four on the 50/200 KHz transducer). Mark drilling
points in the middle of each outline, to allow for transducer height
adjustment. Drill pilot holes to suit fasteners.
¼
Note: Check that there is nothing on the other side of the mounting
surface that may be damaged by drilling.
Attach transducer to transom, using supplied stainless steel
fasteners. Drill a 25mm (1”) hole above the waterline, large enough
to pass the plug through.

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 losing the bottom at speed.
If performance does not improve with tilting, try adjusting the
height of the transducer relative to the transom of the boat. If the
transducer is too high it may be seeing cavitation caused by the
trailing edge of the transom.

Transducer connection
All Combo HDS Gen2 Touch displays have internal Broadband and
StructureScan sonar (chart only units require an external module
for sonar). Navico transducers fitted with the 7 pin blue connector
can be plugged directly into the corresponding blue socket labeled
‘Sonar’. The 9 pin black structure scan connector can be plugged
in to the socket labelled‘Structure’. Refer to the Overview section
of this manual, or embossed labeling on the unit for connector
location.
Connector attached to cable is keyed and can only be inserted in
one orientation. Once inserted, turn locking collar to secure.
¼
¼
¼
Note: Connectors are not in same location on the HDS-7 display as
they are on the HDS-9 and 12 displays (shown above). The ‘Structure’
connector is located to the right of the ‘Sonar’ connector on all units.
Note: Sonar data can also be supplied by an external sonar
source such as the BSM-2 or another sonar capable Navico display
connected via ethernet.
Note: While made for LSS-2 HD transducer, the displays are also
compatible with earlier LSS-1 transducers through use of an adaptor
cable - see page 30.

Ethernet device connection
Ethernet is used to interconnect high bandwidth devices such as
radar, sonar, and other displays. The HDS-7 display has one ethernet
port, whereas the HDS-9 and 12 displays have two. Navico ethernet
cables have a locking collar, for maintaining a reliable, waterproof
connection.
Connecting directly to a single device
The ethernet port is auto sensing, meaning that the unit can
connect to one network device directly, without the use of a cross-
over cable or switch.
Connecting to multiple devices
If connecting more than one ethernet device to a HDS-7 display, or
two devices to a HDS-9 or HDS-12 display, use the optional network
expansion Port (NEP-2).
If the number of ethernet devices exceeds the number of available
ports on the NEP-2, it is possible to link two or more NEP-2 modules
together to provide the required ports. The NEP-2 modules are fitted
with 5 ethernet ports. See page 31 for cable options.
¼
Note: When designing a system, take in to account the ports ‘lost’
when used for linking multiple NEP-2 modules together.

NMEA 2000 device connection
All HDS Gen2 Touch models are equiped with a NMEA 2000 port,
which allows the receiving and sharing of a multitude of data from
various sources.
Essential network information
A NMEA 2000 network consists of a linear “backbone” from which
“drop cables” connect to NMEA 2000 devices
•
•
•
NMEA 2000 is a powered network.
NMEA 2000 cables used for Lowrance products are of the ‘micro-c’
style, which is a cable/connector specification approved for use in
NMEA 2000 certified networks.
•
•
A single drop cable has a maximum length of 6 m (20 ft). The total
length of all drop cables combined should not exceed 78m (256 ft)
The backbone has a maximum cable length of 100m (328ft). The
maximum cable length between any two devices on the network
is also 100 m (328 ft) - this is taking in to account device drop cable
length.
•
A NMEA 2000 network needs to have a terminator at each end of
the backbone.
Planning and installing a network backbone
The NMEA 2000 backbone needs to run between the locations of all
products you want to install, typically in a bow to stern layout. Route
the backbone so that drop cables to devices do not exceed 6m
length. Choose from the following components to make up your
NMEA 2000 backbone:
•
•
Micro-C cables: 2’ (0.61m), 6’ (1.82m), 15’ (4.55m), 25’ (7.58m)
T-connector. Use at locations where you want to connect a device
by drop cable
•
Micro-C male and Micro-C female to SimNet adaptor cables for
connecting to SimNet bus, or adding devices fitted with a SimNet
connector to a Micro-C network.
¼
Note: If using a wind sensor, plan to connect this to one end of the
backbone with the termination resistor at the mast head.
Power the network
A NMEA 2000 network requires its own 12 V DC power supply. The
Lowrance NMEA 2000 power cable is pre fitted with an inline fuse
holder and 3 amp fuse.
22 |
Wiring | HDS Gen2 Touch Installation Manual
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.
In smaller NMEA 2000 systems, the power connection may be made
anywhere in the system,
For larger systems introduce power at a central point in the
backbone to‘balance’the voltage drop of the network. Use a power
cable without termination.
¼
¼
Note: When joining a NMEA 2000 network with a Simrad SimNet
network, it is important that you do not introduce power to both.
Note: Do not connect the power cable to the same terminals as the
autopilot computer, pulse radar, bow thruster or other high current
devices - the network may be affected by voltage drop when these
devices are operated. Avoid connection to the engine starting
batteries where possible.

Talkers and Listeners
Do not connect multiple devices outputing data (Talkers) on to
the input (Rx) of the unit. The RS422 protocol is not intended for
this type of connection, and data will be corrupted if more than
one device transmits simultaneously. The output however may
drive multiple receivers (Listeners). The number of receivers is finite,
and depends on the receiving hardware. Typically three devices is
possible.
Video In
On the HDS-9 and HDS-12, a video camera may be added by
installing the optional video adaptor cable between the power
socket on the unit, and the plug on the power/data cable.
¼
Note: The video images will not be shared with another unit via the
network. It is only possible to view video on the unit connected to
the video source.

Water speed calibration
Water speed calibration is used to adjust the speed value from the
paddle wheel to match the actual boat speed through the water.
Actual speed can be determined from GPS speed over ground
(SOG) or by timing the boat over a known distance. Water speed
calibration should be performed in calm conditions, with minimal
wind and current movement.
Water speed averaging
Averages water speed by measuring your speed at a selected
interval of time. Water speed intervals range from one to thirty
seconds, e.g. If you select five seconds, your displayed water speed
will be based on averaging over 5 seconds of sampling.
Water temperature calibration
Temperature calibration is used to adjust the water temperature
value from the sonar transducer to match the data from another
temperature sensor. It may be required to correct for localized
influences to the measured temperature.
¼
Note: Water temperature calibration only appears if the transducer is
temperature capable. Check transducer type selection if this option
should be available.
Transducer type
Transducer type is used for selecting the transducer model that
came with your unit. In some transducers with built-in temperature
sensors, the temperature reading may be inaccurate if the wrong
transducer is selected from the transducer type menu.
