Lowrance HDS 7 Instalization

[KJ Champ]

I am having a custom dash made so my HDS 7 can be a face mount in the dash of my 260 Sundeck. The dealer originally installed on top of the dash and it severely reduced line of site and was a significant theft threat while in transient slips. The dealer also didn't link the Lowrance to any of my engine read-outs. Has anyone made this install, and does anyone know what type of electronics or bus I need to connect the Lowrance to the Sea Ray Data Link?

The Lowrance is currently wired into the power grid, and it is set up for a LGC 4000 GPS antena, but again, have the wires coming from the data feed of the Lowrance that I need to cross over.

Can share more detail, just let me know what you need.

Thanks,
Kelly

unless you have a hard top the lgc 4000 is not needed. best bet is to call lowrance (navico) they will let you know what is needed. the other optio is to talk to jim at boe he should be able to tell you how to integrate with the sea ray bus
