Todays video is for the Lowrance Elite FS fish finders and sounder. Today were teaching you how to program these units along with the expert from Angling Outfitters, Joclyn Leung. You will learn your unit as well as why everything is done. Going through the settings step by step by yourself is great for helping to learn your fish finder unit top to bottom 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. As a note, this is also very similar to the HDS series fish finders as well. It's a good video to learn along with.
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 for electronics and has been published in outdoor magazines. People travel from hours away to shop, buy from his store and seek out his expertise.

In general, the TI units are faster in response to inputs. This is seen when quickly switching between sonar, downscan, chart, and split screens kzfaq.infoUgkxeAxH15LxhjGlg5-CRYqjTGTEH0tbY4vk recommend The Hook units will show some lag on button pushes and screen switching. The big ticket item though is maps. If you install a mapping card such as Navionics or the free C-Map Genesis which has a lot of map detail, then moving around the map with the cursor or when running down the lake can lag significantly on the Hook units, but is seamless with the TI units.

I found this video just in time. The user manual was too confusing for me. Perhaps I needed the step by step of your demonstration. I've had my Elite FS7 for a year but never could figure out how to set up anything so running default. Scared, I guess, to try and figure out how to set up the contour map and SOG. When I did try something, I accidentally lowered the image intensity, the whole thing disappeared, Aaaaarrrrgggg!!! Thank you so much for going through all these set ups. Yesterday I stopped at the tackle shop looking to replace my unit because I felt the Elite was too complicated for me. If you have Lowrance's ear, please ask them to publish a flow chart. You have saved me from a big mistake and given me the confidence to give it another try. Thank you! I must have watched 10 videos on setting up this unit (9 and 7 versions). Yours was the first one that was very, very helpful. I was considering hiring a local fishing and fishing tech legend, Alan Fong, to show me how to use my Elite. Not knowing how to use my tech tool is kind of embarrassing. Someone commented that the pace was too fast. It was but I understand why. I'm glad I can't wear out KZfaq's pause and replay function.

Excellent tutorial. I'm buying two Elite FS 9's to replace my older HDS Gen 2 units before the rebate runs out end of June ($100.00 each). Hoping my shop here is as useful as you are (they seemed helpful on the phone). Couple questions. How much should I expect from them as far as setting up the two units for me (they are close to a ramp but don't know if they put boats on the water)? What are the advantages to networking the two units and is this something I should do? What is the difference between the Active Imaging 2-IN-1 and 3-IN-1 transducers and which one should I buy? Is it better to have a "thru the hull" or transom mounted transducer (current one is thru the hull)? I bass fish the TVA lakes on the Tennessee River (shallow fresh water) in a Triton Boat. Thanks again for your help, will be looking for more tutorials.

@hookedntravel Жыл бұрын

thank you for the kind words. networking for sure. Able to share waypoints, maps, side, down and sonar. The 3 in 1 is the same as 2 in 1 but with 2d sonar added in. You're in a fibreglass I take it? I personally like transom but I run aluminum. Through hull is harder to install and access. Run about the same maybe slightly cleaner on the transom mount. As far as the dealer, that all depends how good they are and whether they bother to program it out the door. are you getting it installed from there? I would use this video to help set it up and it will get you 95% of the way there and you will learn it better as well.

@@Mdkayakangler alot of you settings are most likely going to be the same. Just a little tweak here and there. You're most likely going to use 800 kHz, on both side/downscan. 200 on sonar but if you want to keep a wider cone beneath you switch to 83. if jigging below you adjust scroll speed faster side. You might adjust your sonar offset a bit shallower. I am not sure how you have transducers mounted either. it's going to be minor adjustments here and there to tweak, and you'll find what you're most comfortable using and your preferences. It'd be easier for me to tell you more if I used a sonar out of a kayak, but I fish mainly super skinny water, less than 5'.

hi i just viewed your tutorial and it is great, i have learned a lot on how to operate my Lowrance, the only question that i have is how import waypoints from the SD card (from Hummingbird) to the Lowrance? thanks in advance

@hookedntravel 6 ай бұрын

there is a way to export all waypoints and generally its done as a GPX file. Which is universal to most GPS type devices. The only caveat is some manufacturers wont export the added details, like the Icon, description, date/time to the GPX file. There are third party programs out there that will do that extra data points in those waypoints for you and export them with every data but last time I checked there was a fee on them. The lowrance system will read the GPX file. I do it all the time when I export from Google Earth to Lowrance.

On my Elite FS I have speed over ground reading on my chart page but no speed over water readings in my sonar, downscan or sidescan modes. All I have is 3 dashes. The speed over water is checked in all of those modes?? Help please😊

@hookedntravel Жыл бұрын

you only really need speed over ground. The two readings are very similar. Over ground is the time it takes between two fixed objects on land, then the other is two fixed points over a place on water. do you have other gps on board, could it be using other GPS or pucks as the reading and not using the internal GPS in the head unit? I would leave speed over water unchecked. Just use speed over ground.

the transducers are pretty durable but for best practice yes keep it in the water. If you're sitting in your driveway simply turn off the transducer and hit STOP. Do the settings, close as you can get them in the driveway until you're in the water. Also every lake, river, set of conditions your gonna tweak your settings anyways. When you are doing this video also have the demo mode off. In regular mode as if your in the water. Demo mode does not save settings.

@hookedntravel Жыл бұрын

How many feet of water? General is usually set for 100’ for or more. For the algorithms that should be set on shallow still if it’s 70 or less. That 70-100 mark is that borderline between the two settings. Try one then the other. Also your transducer could be angled up or too far forward and your not getting the fish/lure in the cone. It’s all relative to how your boat is sitting the water. Next thing would be to check your actually getting your lure in the cone itself, underwater currents effect that a lot!!!! People don’t realize how much current is happening in a column. Especially deeper. It may simply be out of the cone. 200khz is narrow cone angle 22°, 83khz is 52° is gonna be wider beam. Is your buddy in another boat? Might be cross talk or trolling motor interference with 200. Could do a sonar defaults reset (not a unit reset). Just for the sonar. There’s a lot of factors with every brand of fish finder that may play a role. If you’ve knocked the transducer off a rock, your crystals maybe shot in it

@@captainmorgan5106 those icons are there for the NMEA network. Basically extra features to hook into the NMEA network for hooking up to the engine, or motorguide or vessel view. It’s advance features only needed if you have those networked with extra purchases.

if your looking at purchasing from our store you'd have to call angling outfitters 1-519-539-5494 for recent prices and promotions. We don't sell directly through this channel

More options --> Orientation: heading up. And then below that is just a toggle on/off, toggle it on “Look Ahead” Button and it puts you at the bottom of the screen

I already regret buying this . That stupid app dont work and i shouldnt EVER need an app for a fish finder

@hookedntravel 10 ай бұрын

you don't need an app to run the fish finder. Would you please elaborate on your problems? We see alot of problems from other manufacturers right now. No one brand is immune from problems.

Make sure the correct transducer is installed in the settings. Then make sure it’s capable of it and then select the frequency settings in the sonar menu
