Today I installed and HDI transducer on the trolling motor to be able to have down scan on the front unit (HDS 9) and for some reason I only have 2D sonar and no down scan and the unit doesn't show the water any more. I always had water temp with a standard 83/200 transducer.
Any feedback would be great!!

You need to select the correct transducer in the menu.
Go to. Settings-sonar-installation and select the hdi 83/200-455 transducer.

It is a touch unit, right?

Thank you so very much - I will be at boat first light to see if this works. I'll let everyone know if this solved my problem.

David, yes, HDS 9 touch - gen 2 I have the same set up on a HDS 12 gen 3 and it works perfect.

do you have a Lowrance unit on the dash?

Are they linked together? If so, you may have to split them in order to get the HDI to work

Yes, linked together but I think changing the transducer in the sonar setting to the 83/200 455 has solved my issue. I need to get to the lake to verify.
