The settings are fully changeable during recording and playback. You can even change freq while recording.

On playback you can not change freq, since the data has already been recorded. But all the other features are processed live. You can even pause a recording and change the settings to see what looks best.

There are specific circumstances that HB can share 2D sonar data to/from a DI model unit:

1. With 6.570 software a 8/9/1158c DI (or HD DI model) can share (subscribe to) the 200/83kHz or 50/200kHz sonar data from another non-DI model unit as they can be set to use this type of transducer. Effectively setting the 8/9/1158c DI unit to one of these transducer settings makes it a 8/9/1158 (non-DI) model unit.

2. With 6.570 software a non-DI model unit can now subscribe to only the 200kHz part of the DI units 2D sonar. The 455kHz 2D sonar will still work in the DI model unit and the DI sonar data is not shared since the non-DI unit does not have this capability.

Here is info on the HB HDSI Xducer installation with sections for different boat brands...

The stock HDSI Xducer can be stuck down in water far enough to get high speed readings but doing so risks the Xducer being damaged by underwater obstacles...

Most glass boat guys are installing a XP 9 20 T thru hull Xducer for high speed 2d readings (using a AS Si DB Y cable) and mounting the HDSI Xducer up higher for protection...(that HDSI Xducer is $270 a pop)...

Transducer : XNT 9 20 T (transom mount)
Transducer XP 9 20 (Shoot thru hull)
Cable: AS SI DB Y

"Max Depth" setting...per Greg on another forum....

In or out of the water the transducer will ping. However, if it is not getting a water depth reading it will wait for the maximum amount of time before it pings again. It has to do this in case it really is in very deep water. Setting the Max Depth menu will limit the unit in the amount of time that it will wait to ping again – depth reading or not.

With the Max Depth reading set to “Auto” it will adjust to the depth at hand if there is a water depth to be detected.

HB recommended screen cleaner...
