Total Scan Transducer

The way I understood it was if you use the pdrt-wsbl that is in the bilge.the unit will automatically default to that tranducer for sonar and water temperature reading. Even though the totalscan tranducer has this ability. The total scan is suppose to be a “one tranducer does it all”. But if used in conjunction with other tranducer it will loose some of it capabilities..this was the way I understood it explain to me. And maybe I misunderstood it. Talk the Bryan at bb&g . He definitely can explain it better.but please keep us posted.Also the totalscan big advantage over the lss-2 is the totalscan has the 360 view ability if the 3d processor is used..I was wanting to upgrade one unit myself and I was basically just wanting to use all my existing pdrt-wsbl and lss-2 tranducer. Basically unhook my hds gen 2 and hook a new generation 3 in its place. I was told this can be done. But after being told of a few loses Im second guessing and may hold out and just look at for a good used gen 2 10Last edited by Redngoo on December 25th, 2016, 2:53 pm, edited 1 time in total.2013 PANTERA 2MERCURY 200 PRO XSMINNKOTA 80LB FORTREX25 fury

Let us know how the install goes. I was looking at the same set up. Though my farther in law was wanting the 7 and all the goodies. I was basically just wanting the 9 head unit to use with my existing stuff.2013 PANTERA 2MERCURY 200 PRO XSMINNKOTA 80LB FORTREX25 fury

You ordered the “Boat n a Box” combination set up. This is a good buy and we will be stocking as soon as stock is available. The in hull transducer will still be needed for readings on plane. The plugs in the back of the unit still accommodate the blue connection for that transducer. The total scan has the ability to read sonar, DI, SI and to read the Chirp settings. Im unsure about the 360 but will check into that. The 360 has to go through a separate “box” to be read and Im pretty sure its a different transducer. Lowrance is offering some bundles that include the 360 transducer and 360 SS box.If I can help, Let me know.JohnJones Trolling Motor Services870 773 3474Motorguide/MinnKota/PowerPole/Lowrance/Humminbird

These are exact same as I ordered on my boat that I will pick up tomorrow if u would like I can take pictures of transducer placement if it will help any.
