Hi everyone

I have purchase a new boat fitted with hds5 lowrance with sidescan. In the setup mode it asks to choose the exact transducer. Can anyone help with what transducer comes as standard with thes units?

Have a look on the side of the box it should be marked there. I just bought a 7 dsi and that's how I found mine. The transducer type should be highlighted, ticked or colored in.

Unfortunately it only came with the sidescan box that had all the bits and pieces.

Should be the generic one in the list

Im sure you have already worked it out but the cable going into the back of the unit will have a little silver tag on it. The type of transducer that came with mine is a Wide angle 83/200. I think it is the 1st on the list after the generic choices. Could be wrong. I don't know anything about side scan though.
