- This is another video of setting up a fish finder. Todays video is of the Lowrance Elite Ti and Elite Ti2 fish finder. Programming these units along with the expert will allow you to learn your unit as well as why everything is done. Going through the settings yourself is great for helping to learn your fish finder unit and for a better experience on the water. This helps to increase your odds of finding fish. If at any point you ever need to re-program your unit you can refer back to this video.
This seminar is by Prostaff and Electronics Expert Joclyn Leung of Angling Outfitters in Woodstock, Ontario. He has over 30 years experience in Electronics and owns one of the biggest stores in Canada. Joclyn is considered one of the most knowledgable experts in Canada. People travel to his store from hours away to shop and buy from his store.

The absolute best video ive come across on these units, i was truely going to smash it, until i found you, thankyou
Thanks Paul! That’s why we created this video. We noticed not one goes through how to program it in depth by each step and explains it. Please subscribe and share it! Tightlines!
I totally agree!! I've had my Elite Ti for years and I still struggle with it. Now, I'm going to head out to the garage and reconfigure it.
@@hookedntravel Also I would pay for a video like that so why not put a $9.95 charge for the video and becone independent with tutorials on this - 90,000 people cant be wrong!
@@mikebrunt4099 thank you! the ads do give some return, though very small. Helps cover the cost. We mainly have done it for educational purposes to help get the right information out there in an over saturated market of misinformation. We like to see the everyone benefit from our tutorials is our main goal. Income or popularity has never been a goal of ours. Thank you for the kind words!
I think most of us are utilizing less than 5% of of these units capabilities! It sure is nice to explore in-depth and customize for our personal preferences. Before watching, I pretty much accepted the factory settings and just got used to them. Now I will take the knowledge gained after watching your video and apply many of the lessons learned. Thank you for your simple, easy to follow instruction. For me, it made all the difference. I look forward to watching more.
Thank you for the kind words. Thats why we do these video's. Stay tuned, we got more video's like the 36min new sonar interpretation video we just did. Please, like, share and subscribe! Cheers!
@@hookedntravel wow. Great job. I've probably had my Elite a year or so and did not know the capabilities. Thanks for the video.
@@bensteele5753 Thank you for the kind words! nightlines
This is by far the best tutorial I have come across. After following the tutorial feel a lot more confident with the set up up my Lowrance TI Elite and looking forward to trying it out from my kayak in the sea off the NE UK. Keep up the good work, Thanks.
Thank you of the kind words! We got alot more videos coming in the future! Tightlines.
Excellent. You took the time to explain how to get to each option. I set the TI2 next to the video and went through the options while watching the video. Some videos tell you how to set the option but not how to get to the option. You showed which buttons to push and what each option was and you were excellent showing how to setup the screen. Thank you for this video.
Absolutely the best explanation of how this fish finder is set up. Some of older guys and gals need it explained in detail. We aren’t tech savvy as younger people. Thank you.
No problem! That’s why we did this. Joclyn sets these units up like this for every unit he sells before it goes out the store. Please like and subscribe, we’ll have more videos like these and other tips! Cheers!
Ive watched this multiple times. Finally understand how to setup the unit. The thing I always missed was touching the power button to get into the edit overlay. Thanks
glad you enjoyed the video! tightlines!
I just bought a used boat that I will pick up tomorrow. It has two elite ti2 graphs already on it. I am sure you video just saved me several hours of learning the menus and setting it up for the first time. Thank you.
Glad you found it helpful! Tightlines!
WONDERFUL!!! was giving this $hit unit away!! I have fought this thing for quite a few years. (NO unit for old men) Will keep it now for the bow. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THE BEST VIDEO EVER ON THIS UNIT!!
thank you for the kind words. Thats why we do these videos, it gets people started on the right foot! We found a bunch of other videos lacking in alot of area's. Tightlines!
Without a doubt, The best tutorial I have ever seen on setting up . I have just purchased this unit and you have made my setup very easy.
Glad you found it helpful! Like and subscribe and we'll be getting more content to you!
Thank you sir for an outstanding to the point tutorial. I have searched many times and finally foud exactly what I need .
glad to hear that. We hear that all the time.
I have watched this video four times now and I keep learning new things.
try sitting in the store front and listen to Joclyn speak!
Finally, a guy who knows what he’s talking about and isn’t wasting time. Lowrance should hire you for their webinars!
Thank you for the kind words. That’s why we do these videos. We had seen so many video’s out there, that unfortunatley shouldn’t have been created in the first place.
Thank you from Down under Australia we have two of these units and you have just opened up a whole new world of better understanding the options and features available with these units.
no problem. Thank you for the kind words. Thats why we do these videos. We'll eventually have more video's that'll go very technical and in depth on these units.
You are the very best teacher I have ever seen! Thank you so much for this video! I have done it wrong the last 20 years! Thank you!
thank you for the kind words! Glad the videos help!
Wow! I definitely learned a lot about my fish finder's capabilities! Thanks for posting this. Hopefully, I will put it to good use this weekend.
Good luck! Tightlines!
I will be wearing this video out
These tutorials are great! Thanks for coming to our fishing club meeting tonight to provide some electronics insights.
Thank you for the kind words! Joclyn always enjoys doing those seminars! tightlines
Thank you I agree with all the other comments. Your video is the best ever. I could have never figured out how to really use my unit. Please keep up the great work..."you the man"!!!
thank you. Glad you enjoyed it!
Excellent well-guided detail seminar on how to use this great boating and fishing tool.
thank you for the kind words!
Just watched again for second time. For a guy that thought I knew my fishfinders you sir showed me alot. Much Respect. I will be viewing your store site. Thanks again
Thank you!
I have 3 elite ti on my bassboat. My ? Is should I install a GPS antenna or is it not really worth spending 300. Thanks. I mainly use sonar and down scan all day.
@@larrylazure4288 usually not really needed for general use. But it helps the more advanced user for pinpoint accuracy where other electronics are more reliant on the needed accuracy. Saying that, having the puck helps give you the direction as well. The gps module only in the units base directions off of movement of the unit from satélites. The puck will allow you to position it anywhere in the boat. My units are in the back of the boat on my 21’ tiller so their closer to the transducers, where if you have your units mid ship or on the deck the accuracy is off by how much the unit is away from your ducer. I think the real benefit may be if you were loggin sonar in that aspect and creating maps
Would you consider the puck for “offshore” Ocean fishing as a benefit at all or would the same answer apply?
Great video! You guys did a great job! Thanks. Why is it that Lowrance doesn't (can't?/won't?) do application videos this good? Nice work!
Excellent video!! As a Lowrance user I really appreciate the easy to follow instructions and help setting up my units. Thank you!
thanks for the kind words! thank you for the support! Cheers!
I found a lot of good information in the first few minutes of your video. Awesome job! Can't wait to program my unit!
Thank you so much for this video. Just purchased an Elite TI2, and will use this to set it up
thank you! hope you enjoy it! don't forget to like and subscribe. More videos coming your way! cheers
Thx for the great work explaining everything your a legend like the guy below was ready to throw it in the ocean !!
No wonder I didn’t see any fish. Thanks for tutorial now I can see more
Glad to you found it helpful!
I agree, best video on this unit! I've read a lot but using this unit it's easier to learn by watching someone go through and explain it. Thanks

Excellent instruction!
Thank you thank you thank you! I think you gave me the info I need to get what I want for the money I have available but I have a few questions just to make sure... but first let me tell you the back story.... I'm new to fish finders and I've already purchased a few used Lowrance products but I've gotten confused with transducer and networking compatibility issues. I ended up with an HDS 7 gen2 touch at the helm but didn't get maps or the side scan transducer so it only has 2D sonar. Then a friend gave me an elite 7ti for the deck but networking is an issue. However I did get the down scan transducer that I mounted to my trolling motor so I split that with the 2D which is great. So now I just purchased an Elite 9 Ti2 with the Active Imaging 3 in 1 transducer for the helm so I can have side/down/2D. Now here comes my questions... 1. Can the 7ti and the 9Ti2 network wirelessly? 2. Should I get the navionics card? (I live in Oxnard CA so I mostly fish on Lake Casitas and I also fish in CA and AZ. Again... great video... I feel like I have my head screwed on straight graph-wise with all the tips and I really think this will help me catch more fish so thanks.
Thank you for the kind words. the ti2 is the only one with wireless capabilities It's the next generation up from the Ti. They can share waypoints via nmea network but the sonar, mapping/down/side is only able to with the same generation. As far as mapping, in your area I couldn't give you the best answer. Navionics sonar chart has been up there with the best in recent year years. I would look into CMAP discover and reveal cards to see how they compare. As well along with the cmap genesis online in the social maps. As those would be True user data corrected. You're able to download them for free. You might be well off going into your local lowrance dealer closest to those lakes and ask what their guys run for mapping. In our area Navionics and cmap are the best two.
Excellent video especially for dumby like me 👍
thank you
I just wanted to thank you guys for amazing video which is very helpful 😉🤙
Your welcome! Thank you for the great compliment! Cheers
Fantastic video and information, will use this to get my TI 2's up and running! Looking forward to a navionics shading tutorial.
Great video. Best one I've watched. I wish I had the silver tags on my transducer cables but they had been removed before I bought the boat. Two HDS7 Gen2 Touch units (bow and console) and one Elite Ti (stern). Four transducers. Not sure which is hooked to which except the Spotlight transducer that is hooked to the bow HDS7 and does have the silver tag.
And I also have wifi.
You should be able to figure out which transducers by the lowrance website as well. They have the legacy transducers listed as well. We would normally figure out what year you bought everything at, anything newer than that you can eliminate. Also you can tell sometimes by the look and if they have a separate module box.
@@hookedntravel Thanks for the reply. Will do.
Great video... it helped me setup my lowrance's. Question, should it be speed over the water instead of speed over ground?
speed over ground is what the satellites use universally and is more accurate as a general rule.
Very good instructional video. Thank you very much
Thank you, Im ready to pull the trigger on one.
Spectacular!
Awesome
Super good training video training for lowrance top units.
Thank you so much!
This how to video is the absolute best! I've had my Elite 9Ti's for three years and have never gotten a handle on them. I have 3 questions. First, why don't you overlay water temp on any of the screens? Second, where do I find the video for updating via wifi? And, finally, if you have two units, as I do, with one at the console and one at the bow, how would you set up your bow unit?
By the way, I am a brand new subscriber!!
Hey Marty. We do we just forgot to add them in the video and put them on the sonar page. A lot to go through in one video. Also water temp is relative. It’s only surface temps. So unless you fish only shallow waters were they may stay relatively the same it’s only a frame of reference.
We haven’t gotten around to updating via wifi yet. It’s a lot to produce these video. Just started them. We would set up the bow unit the same as the console and mainly use mapping and sonar at the front. Set them up via wifi network so they talk to each other
Thanks. I actually have bow and console connected via NMEA2000
Best one I have seen yet!!!
Awesome video on setting up the Lowrance elite series. I learned a lot from it and I've been using the elite ti and since it came out and now have the ti2. I'm saving this video for future reference. Thanks for the info!!
No problem! That’s why we’re doing these! Don’t forget to like and subscribe. We’ll be doing advanced settings and sonar secrets. For future videos once the season winds down.
Oh my!! Thank you!!! My boat is out for routine maintenance and I'm using tnis tomorrow!!
absolutely great video guys
thank you

Thank you!!
Yep 👍
Thanks!
Glad you enjoyed the video!
Great video! I have the Elite Ti2-12 and purchased a C-Map Reveal card. Have a hard time understanding the setup. Do you have a video for that? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank
you
thanks for sharing some useful features and... having a nice dog... I have just boght this fishinder and I have two geat danes
Excellent video! Thanks for the detail and the "why's" for changes. What is the benefit of Sonar versus Downscan?
Sonar has its real-time imaging and bottom hardness with it sonar reflections. Having you downscan side by side with your sonar allows you to help interpret what your seeing on your sonar and its different type of view. The image on downscan is going to be more of a picture like image. Great for getting an idea what your seeing on sonar, ex bridge pilings, docks, baitfish, weeds, trees. Most of that stuff on sonar can look pretty similar to an untrained eye.
If only apple made fish finders, they’d be way expensive tho. I just got the elite 5ti and man this video would have helped a lot. I was in 180ft of water and it was saying it was 10-20ft deep😂
Very helpful content! Thanks for sharing.
Hi I have just bought DHS live 9 And I'll put a one kW Tm275Lhw I would like a few tips on how to set it up for deep water
The Best 👍i don’t speek Englisch but your video help my! Danke 👍
This really is a good video . Thank you
Great video! I’m following along and rechecking everything as I’ve been using it for a year now. My transducer selection is set to AI1 3 in 1 but my transducer is a AI2 3in1 and it won’t let me bring up the available transducer list. Is there a difference between ai1 and ai2?
Some of the new ones have a chip in the plug end that automatically sets it from the unit. Whatever it sets it to will be fine.
Life saver thanks bro
Any time!
How do i change my trail data points? When i am going slow in my boat the trail thickens and i cannot see where i am. When trying to position the boat over a reef. It feels like there should be a way of reducing the number of data points the unit is capturing... I have a video
Wow!
Best ever.
Thanks
What do you recommend to improve image quality on these units in shallower waters? Sometimes, even as shallow as 10ft, my graph will get fuzzy for down and side imaging and it’s hard to read. Thanks in advance.
800khz is the best for 25’ or shallower for best definition. Once you step out to deeper than 25’ switch to 455khz (better penetration). Also you could be getting interference somewhere as well making it fuzzy. Hard to diagnose without sitting in your boat and seeing your graph.
Amazing video!
Thank you!
@@hookedntravel do you guys have any more content on this specific product, such as gps or other integrations? I’ve thought about swapping for another product but this video is definitely showing me what I’ve been doing wrong. Thanks!
We’re working on some more content. It takes along time to produce this type of content especially being so technical.
Some video’s on other units will have similar features. So if we have another coming up in the future, it may apply to this unit as well.
great video got one question for you i accidently erase my wireless client setting letters which is located in the wireless setting box it shows now no setting for wireless client, mode have been stored how do i reset or get the setting back.........
I have tried and tried to set my ti2 12, but I just can't everything set correctly. I have watched this video and did everything you show on here. I have two of them and can't even get the first one set.
have you made sure you NOT in demo mode?
I'll check, but I never PUT it in demo.
Awesome info
Great video as always but my question is I run 3 Elite Ti2 units 1 at the bow and 2 at the console. 1 unit is not hooked to a transducer because it’s just used for mapping my other unit has a splitter so my unit can use the through hull transducer and use the 2 in 1 so which transducer do I choose in the installation segment ?
Great job I can’t get contour lines to show up on my lowrance elite ti 9 on my navionics tried updating card that didn’t work any advice thanks
Good video. My Lowrance Ti2-7 is showing speed in KPH. How do I change it to MPH?
I learned a ton from your video instructions. I have one question, all my numbering somehow went from the preferred black to orange. How the heck do I switch it back to black? Thank you
are you talking about the display data on the screen? or in the menu's?
@@hookedntravel I figured it out… I had accidentally hit the night mode button
@@MrDeputy83 perfect. Glad you caught it. You'll know for next time! Tightlines
I recently bought a Ti2 7 from a buddy and he said everything worked but may have to update the transducer file. Figured it was nothing big. Turns out it’s some dreaded Sonar version 0.0.0 issue. Is there a known fix to this or did my buddy sell me a lemon?
The latest update for the ti2 is software version 20.0.1. If you're having problems. First try a soft reset, then I would try a full hard reset back to factory settings. Then try the update. Try those first then you might be able to know for sure.
Is the transducer you talk about with 3 in 1 the active imaging transducer and you select total scan mh?
the total scan and the Active Imaging 3 in 1 transducer are completely different transducers. The totalscan has the DI, SI and sonar in one
Any idea why my chart is now tracking my course with a big shaded area around the cursor? I have tried all kinds of settings and I can't seem to get rid of it.
Around the boat Icon? You most likely have structurescan overlay on.
How do you get that bar off the left side of the screen that says trolling and other stuff
thats interfaced nmea connections for the Motorguide trolling motors or the mercury motors. Usually in the settings for your nmea connections. Go to System -> advanced-> Features-> Turn off Autopilots and autopilot panels. That should do the trick.
If thats not the exact way, let me know. I only have an HDS infront of me right now, it should be similar with the elite Ti
Beautiful job…thank you
I have the 9TI and my base unit was just replaced under warranty I have the M/H transducer but don't seem to I believe the downscan. I have sonar and side but no downscan icon? Any ideas? Nevermind I figured out why I had 4 setup screens. two of them were the downscan just with different settings. But I only have 9 pallet color choices not 14 or more like you have. Just interesting how all of these are just a little different.
14 for traditional sonar and less for the down and sidescan options. The main one either way for traditional sonar is the brown bottom (white background).
Also I would pay for a video like that so why not put a $9.95 charge for the video and becone independent with tutorials on this - 90,000 people cant be wrong!
Great video mate
Hi guys my edit overlay button doesn’t let me in to add anything
I have an elite ti2 with AI 2in1 Ducer on the transom I use for down and side scan and also an hdi Ducer shooting through hull for 2D sonar. Is it correct to just select the AI 2in 1 Ducer in the installation settings? Thanks
I connected 2 transducers to this unit via a Y cable. My thinking was that i can utilize the 3-1 (which is what i bought extra) for the side scan, and the other skimmer type for the "at-speed" downscan. Is this something that works on the TI-2. Trying to learn about this. The previous owner had a side-scan ducer and mounted the skimmer to the trolling motor. Maybe he was not honest about weather this worked for him or not...
Lowrance Y-Cable gives you the ability to run an In-Hull transducer or a separate Skimmer style transducer. A Y-Cable is compatible with the LSS-2 Transducer and the Active Imaging 2-in-1 Transducer for your Side and Down Imaging.
It has a single male 9-Pin plug on the unit side and splits off to a 7-Pin female for your 2D sonar and a 9-Pin plug for your Side and Down Imaging transducer.
if I think it's the right y cable you have for the elite ti?
So the Y is “not” compatible with the 3-1 then you think…
can I connect the Ti2 to a Motorguide xi3 and use all the nav features
Yes you can. You must connect via nmea system and get the motorguide gateway for the connection
@@hookedntravel What do you think of the Hook 2 triple shot?
@@bkormoski1 it’s a good unit for its price point and the transducer tech is better than what we had 5 years ago. Depending on your fishing style and what you want out of your fish finder, networking, dual sonar, forward facing sonar, you could look into an upgrade.
@@hookedntravel I do mostly crappie fishing. I slow troll and single pole mostly. what would be the best bang for the buck In your mind?
@@bkormoski1 the elite FS or you might be able to find the elite ti2 at a great price right now. You can’t run the active target on the elite ti2. Only elite FS (newest one). The elites can run the ai2 3 in 1 transducer. Has a lot the ability of the high end units. Touch screen, dual frequencies, and very user friendly!
Great video thank you
Excellent Video but can someone help me with why I can not see channel markers !
No matter what I try, no red or green channel markers or full screen water levels are present.I’m sure it’s going to be something easy,but I can’t find it and Lowrance was no help.I tried through the installed c-map and my Navionics chip I have used in my previous boat with no issues.
Thanks In advance.
I have the same issue. My understanding is that its because there is only a base map loaded on the unit. An upgraded map is necessary. But I maybe wrong
You need to update your Navionics card or buy new one
