Lowrance / Simrad Active Imaging 3-in-1 Transducer PDF Settings Guide

This guide is for the non-HD Active Imaging 3-in-1 transducer. It is supported on Lowrance HDS PRO, HDS LIVE, HDS Carbon, Elite FS, and Elite Ti2 systems with the matching sonar connection. The same transducer family is supported on Simrad GO XSE/XSR and NSS evo3/evo3S, with additional compatible systems depending on their sonar module. This PDF covers the shared transducer settings; menu names can differ on Simrad. Do not substitute Active Imaging HD.

The current Lowrance / Simrad Active Imaging 3-in-1 Transducer PDF Settings Guide covers the following sections from the PDF:

• Starting Out: Definitions, Installation, Interference, Software Updates
• 2D Sonar: Frequency, Sensitivity, Colorline, Scroll Speed, Noise Reject, Surface Clarity, DownScan Overlay, Depth Line, A-Scope, Fish ID
• DownScan: Contrast, Fish Reveal, Surface Clarity
• SideScan: Frequency, Contrast, Range, Surface Clarity
• My Settings: Views, 2D Sonar, DownScan, SideScan

It is not only a list of numbers. The PDF gives recommended settings or ranges for the exact transducer and explains the covered controls, setup, and screenshots that go with those recommendations.

This PDF is focused on setting up the exact transducer named on the product page. It includes screenshots and setup explanations, but the video courses are the step-by-step products for learning to read and use each sonar type.

Use the recommended settings as your normal baseline. The guide also explains the controls that change with what you are viewing, such as range or aim, and when to return to the normal setup. The recommendations are not split into different settings for different water clarity.

YouTube can be useful for individual questions. This guide puts the recommendations, explanations, screenshots, and setup information for one exact transducer into one ordered PDF, so you do not have to combine advice made for different equipment.

ChatGPT can help explain settings and answer questions. Check that its advice matches your exact fish finder and transducer. This PDF brings the recommended settings, explanations, and screenshots for the listed equipment together in one guide.

After checkout, the current store process makes the PDF available on the Course Home page, in a follow-up email, and from the Orders page when you log in with the same email used at checkout.

Yes. You can save the PDF to your phone or computer and print it at home. On an iPhone, downloaded PDFs normally appear in the Files app under Downloads or Recents.

The PDF Settings Guide is digital and a printed guide is not mailed. A Laminated Quick Reference Card is included only when the purchase option you select explicitly says it includes one.
