    Hello Sorry if this has been asked before. I have an Lowrance elite 5 dsi, I just got a minn kota terrova ipilot with us2 built into it. If I buy the adapter cable that goes in between the two, will it work at all. what i have been reading these two wont work together. I hope it does dont want to run my dsi transducer on my motor. Thanks for any help. Jason

    from a US2 all you can get with any sonar is 2D, there's no down imaging no side scan. If you want more than just 2D you'll have to use your 'ducer on it.

    Uhhhh NO .... it won't work !! An Elite 5DSI does not have 2d sonar ... it's a DOWN SCAN only !! It has no 2d features/capabilities.

    You would have to have a HDI unit or a HDS unit, and they still would only show the 2d sonar image through a us2.
