So heres a dumb question.

I have an Xi5 and want to hook up a graph for sonar and i cant find out which models i can connect to

btw im not buying a $1500 hds so a basic one is fine,
I currently have an Elite 5 dsi mounted at the bow but the connections are different.

thanks in advance

I've got an Lowrance Elite 7 on my bow and using the internal transducer on my Xi5. That's an older model, I think it's now the Elite 7 Chirp. It works for me as I only want depth and a map. If you want to link the Xi5 to the depthfinder, you'll need the gateway cable and a HDS unit (I think).

Erico how did you connect your elite 7 to the xi5 for just the depth?

I have an elite 7 also but I can't figure out the adapters.

Matt

My Xi5 has the blue connection plug for the sonar built in? It was plug and play. Does yours have the built in transducer?

I was looking at my elite 5 not the 7. I'll check it out tomorrow. Thanks for the help
