I am installing 2 HDS 9 lives that I recently purchased. The install manual shows the last 2 connections on the back to be a Blue and a Black. However my unit actually has 2 black connections. Are these the same? Also get hate mail over having fish ID set on the sonar by all the high brows but mainly troll with rookies and it makes it easier to know it is a fish and also can see what depth they are at quickly.
when you are in the split Left and Right side-scan (two side scans on one screen with sonar and chart) and go back to just side scan you will only have the left or right side scan and not both. And you have to go back and change it to left and right side scan. then your split will have a L&R and an L or R. Is this going to get fixed in an update?
I just purchased a couple of HDS Live units. Could you guys possibly do a in depth video on the instruments page. How to build a custom instruments page with SOG, RPM, Water Temp, Oil Pressure, etc. and how to edit the page (add/remove instruments) Thanks!
If I have a Live 12 at console and bow, and after I setup my overlays, favorites, etc, at the console unit, can I copy those to my bow unit without having to go through each page and re-set up?
Question: I just purchased a Sun Tracker Fishin' Barge 22 DLX pontoon boat and need a fishing package. I am looking at the Lowrance Elite FS 9 with 3-1 Active Imaging Transducer. My question is what type of trolling motor do I need that will connect with the Lowrance Elite FS9. I need a 80 LB 24 V with I-Pilot (no foot pedal).
Great info there thanks, quick question .... do you have your transducers still plugged in when playing around with the unit in the garage ? Can this damage the transducers at all ?
I turn the Spotlight scan on simulation to get familiar with a feature I do Not have. Now the home ALWAYS shows that feature even though I have repeatedly turned the feature off. Am I stuck with the nuisance?
Hi I have a Hooks2 Reveal 9inch Tripelnshot and Is the fish reveal setting automatic or is there a way to turn it on or off when using down scan. Having a hard time finding the settings. Thank you Bruce
If I have a elite t2 9 inch.. can I use same power source and 3:1 sonar to connect 9 inch hdslive like swapping elite ti2 for hds live.. seems like same cable connectors
@@lowrance thanks I picked one up last night bass pro / cabelas has a screaming Black Friday special! 899 for hdslive 9 and 12 inch 1899! Btw what size ram mount would you reccomend. Or plate. I noticed the plate for existing elite ti2 9inch won’t fit bracket on HDSLIVE 9 so need a bigger ram or bigger plate
Awesome video, quick question on these units, I got 2 HDS 12 live units from Bass Pro during the Black Friday sale in NOV. My cameras are not working and one of them are freezing up on 2D sonar. I was told that there are firmware/software being worked to correct these issues. Just looking for feedback for the correctness of this and steps I should take?
@@lowrance my installers did the check when the installed them, I tried to contact your facebook page, just not I was on the correct page, my post was up then it disappear, i also try to send at direct message with no reply
@@lowrance I did on yesterday, I was speaking with someone via messaging, sent them screen shots of my unit info, and was giving me some steps to investigate. They verify that my units are under warranty
just watched this session and really enjoyed it. I'm trying to set up the dashboard screen with my Yamaha engine and I'm not seeing what you showed on your demo. Is a Yamaha engine compatible with Lowrance HDS Live? And I can't find any videos on your quick tips.
You will need to have a NMEA2000 engine interface. Contact Yamaha to double check if your engine is compatible for Generic engine data, ref. 000-0120-37 or with Specific engine data, ref. 6YG-8A2D0-00-00

Yes, but if you live in the Philippines, you will want to purchase the unit from your local area so that it works properly. Please check our site for a dealer near you. www.lowrance.com/dealer-locator/
That was very informative thanks.If I would add a ghost trolling motor would I still need a point 1 or does the trolling motor know the heading of the boat?
Please make sure both HDS Live and LiveSight transducer are running the latest software update. Send us a message via FB with your units serial number and contact details.
How can I log a map/chart, and use it directly on the water. I dont want to upload it on internet C-Map Genesis. I want to use the map I made the same day, and I dont want to share the logging with no other people? Please answer.
@@Lazzoboy You will have to pay for the pro version of CMAP Genesis to prevent others form having your logs or use Genesis Live. Unless you get a Navionics card with an actice subscription and use Sonar Chart Live. Those are the only options at this time that I'm aware of.
@@chaddeem4544 Now I know that. Think it´s horrible that Lowrance have that. Sold both new HDS Live sonars and replaced them with Garmin. Now all my problem are gone

Thank you again Jeremiah lol had to watch this again, sooo much good info.
On the left side of the screen is there a way to remove that stuff where I can get full screen?
what are the best settings for slow trolling?
How do you set your unit to scan in deep water like over 1000ft in the ocean

Question. The user manual says the max number of panels a page can display depends on the unit size. What are the max # of panels for 7" and 9"?
Yes, the 12" and 16" can have up to 6-panel split screen, whereas the 7" and 9" have 4-panel split screen.
Can I put sog the upper left corner with temp and depth? If yes, how. Thanks
Yes you can indeed.
