Lowrance electronic HDS 8 Manual De Usuario

Highlight FORCE STATUS UPDATE and press ENT.  

Pay attention to the RX/TX buttons. 

   c.  If the TX is not lighting up then either you do not have 

the com port set to RADAR or the GPS unit is defective.  

Verify that the Com Port is set properly, if it is then the 

Lowrance unit will need to be sent in for repair.  

   

d.  If the TX is blinking but the RX is not then you are not 

getting any information from the RIM, the processor or 

the Radar.  There is a fuse inside the processor that 

has more than likely blown.  Remove the front left black 

screw, then remove the grounding post on the right side 

of the front of the unit.  Gently slide the front cover off, 

the fuse is located on the left side of the board.  This 

fuse is very tight and difficult to remove, you may need 

to use a pair of pliers to get a good grip on it and gently 

try to pull it out.  Replace the fuse, the faceplate, and 

the screws, making sure that the front face is securely 

seated so not to lessen the water seal.

 If the communication is hooked up properly and all informa-

tion  fields are properly displayed on the “radar information” 

page, but the unit starts to warm up but you never see a 

count down to standby on the screen  and then radar com-

munication is lost after one minute.  The voltage supply to 

the Radar Antenna or the gauge wire supplying the voltage 

may be to small.
