HDS Live 12 with AI 3 in 1 Downscan Issues #14796263 08/01/23 05:32 PM

Issues with the downscan imaging I'm having. On the SI I get the option of 455 and 800 frequencies but no options on the downscan, in the manual it state "If your DownScan transducer supports just one frequency, the Frequency option won't show in the DownScan panel." on page 94 mine shouldn't be the case because I'm using the AI 3in1. I've called Lowrance they made me push the latest software but the issues still exist. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.
Moe

There is no options for downscan its one frequency and Lowrance does not ever share that in the specs. Your SI is correct as stated above.

Thank you Larry for the reply, In the manual it does shows.
"DownScan frequency options depend on the type of connected
DownScan transducer: 455 kHz and 800 kHz"
I've watched so many youtube video's it shows both options I've taking screenshot of some that does show 800 kHz same as the SI.

at Bass Pro shop the demo does show the option as well.

Its rare but sometimes these demo files do not match the specs on something like this or a change in production happens then it does not match the demo files. Below is what the specs are for the AI3-1 coming from the install manual for it.

Thank you again for reply Larry, the Active imaging 3 in 1 that came with the HSD live 12 I'm using is not on the trolling motor is in the back of my boat. the screenshot is not from the demo it's from a youtube video of someone showing the best setting to use.
