- Mount the transducer in a location where it will not interfere with boat operation or pose a hazard to swimmers.
- Avoid exposing the transducer to extreme temperatures or harsh chemicals.
3. Packungsinhalt
Vergewissern Sie sich vor Beginn der Installation, dass alle Komponenten vorhanden sind:
- Lowrance Active Imaging 3-In-1 Transducer
- Transom Mount Bracket
- Befestigungsmaterial (Schrauben, Unterlegscheiben, Muttern)
- Installationsvorlage (falls enthalten)
4. Einrichtung und Installation
The Lowrance Active Imaging 3-In-1 Transducer is designed for transom mounting. Proper placement is crucial for optimal performance.
4.1 Montageort
Wählen Sie eine Stelle am Querbalken, die Folgendes aufweist:
- Free from obstructions (e.g., propellers, strakes, other transducers).
- In an area of smooth water flow, minimizing turbulence.
- Gut zugänglich für Installation und Wartung.
4.2 Physische Installation
- Position the transom mount bracket on the selected location. Ensure the bottom of the transducer will be slightly below the hull line when deployed.
- Mark the drill holes using the bracket as a template.
- Drill pilot holes. Apply marine sealant to prevent water intrusion.
- Secure the transom mount bracket to the boat using the provided mounting hardware.
- Attach the transducer to the bracket. Adjust the angle so the transducer face is parallel to the waterline.

5. Bedienungsanleitung
The Active Imaging 3-In-1 Transducer combines multiple sonar technologies to provide a comprehensive view der Unterwasserumgebung.
5.1 Sonar Frequencies and Modes
- Med/High CHIRP: Bietet traditionelles Sonar views for fish arches and bottom tracking.
- SideScan: Bietet breite, hochauflösende viewStrukturen und Fische an den Seiten Ihres Bootes.
- DownScan: Liefert bildähnliche viewStrukturen und Fische befinden sich direkt unter Ihrem Boot.
Refer to your Lowrance display unit's manual for detailed instructions on selecting and optimizing these sonar modes.
6. Wartung
Regular maintenance ensures optimal performance and longevity of your transducer.
- Reinigung: Periodically clean the transducer face with mild soap and water to remove marine growth, dirt, or oil. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents.
- Inspektion: Überprüfen Sie das Geberkabel regelmäßig auf Schnitte, Knicke oder Beschädigungen. Kontrollieren Sie die Montagehalterung auf festen Sitz oder Korrosion.
- Überwinterung: Bei Betrieb unter Minusbedingungen ist darauf zu achten, dass der Messwandler keiner Eisbildung ausgesetzt wird, da diese zu Schäden führen kann.
7. Fehlerbehebung
If you experience issues with your transducer, consider the following common problems and solutions:
| Problem | Mögliche Ursache | Lösung |
|---|---|---|
| Keine Sonarmessung | Loose connection, power issue, transducer not submerged. | Check cable connections, verify power to display unit, ensure transducer is in water. |
| Poor or Intermittent Imaging | Air bubbles, marine growth, incorrect mounting angle, electrical interference. | Clean transducer face, adjust mounting angle, check for sources of electrical noise, reposition transducer if necessary. |
| SideScan/DownScan Not Working | Incorrect display unit settings, damaged transducer element. | Verify sonar settings on your display unit. If problem persists, contact support. |
For persistent issues, consult your Lowrance display unit's manual or contact Lowrance customer support.
