(Lowrance Broadband Sounder)
The LBS-1 is a digital sonar optimizer designed to enhance sonar echo
clarity. The broadband sounder was created to deliver the most striking
underwater definition possible, with digitally-purified marking, includ-
ing separation of fish, structure, thermoclines and bottom detail while
minimizing surface and turbulent water clutter.
This document explains how to connect the LBS-1 to a compatible
Lowrance display unit. The broadband sounder connects directly be-
tween the transducer and display unit. Read the following instructions
carefully before attempting to install the LBS-1.
Included Components
Included with the LBS-1:
• Six-foot (five pin) Ethernet cable. The Ethernet cable connects the
LBS-1 to the display unit.
• Six-foot (four pin) power cable. This cable has a connector plug at one
end for connecting to the LBS-1 and 4 wires (red, black, yellow and
blue) on the other end for connecting to the power supply.
• Fuse and fuse holder. The fuse holder connects to the red power cable
wire between the power source and broadband sounder.
