The transducer for the structure scan is not shown in the photos. Is it also the high definition as well as the lss-2 module?

There are 2 transducers with this unit, the sonar transducer which looks like the standard from Lowrance. The other transducer is for the HD structure and side scan, it is about 11 inches long, half round, and designed to mount flush with the bottom of your hull.

When I bought mine it came with transducer and harware, mounting brackets and wiring for power. It was ready to install, you need nothing else.

The unit comes loaded with coastline maps of the eastern seacoast but no fresh water maps. They can be bought and loaded seperatly by buying the coresponding chip for the frshwater areas you want to navigate. And yes it does come with a transducer.

There is just one transducer to do it all. I purchased the trolling motor transducer mount, and it worked awesome.

Yes, Cabelas had this same combo, HDS-8 with structure scan. The only difference is that they wanted way more money for it.

When I received mine it was a transom mount transducer. Works great iv had mine for almost a year with no issues and I installed everything myself

The end of the transducer cable is female. I know because I needed an extension and matching the pins to the cable was tough. If not perfectly straight the pins bend and had to be straightened

I suggest you post this question on irv2.com under the class A forum? The scangauge mfg should also be able to answer your question. Hope this points you toward an answer

I think that is the same model we purchased, and the transducer just attaches to the transom with a suction cup provided with the unit.

Yes, the one I ordered from Amazon had the transducer included. However on the box is said it was not included but it was in the box. And all works VERY nicely.

Obviously, with side scan, it cannot be either. The transducer is mounted on the transom or on a bow mount trolling motor.

The side and down imaging transducer is a "combo" type transducer and provides both signals, as well as providing the basic sonar signal to the unit. I have a 898 on the console of my boat with the SI/DI/Sonar transducer on the back transom. Also have a 858 on the bow position with a standard DI/Sonar transducer on the trolling motor. Have a Ethernet cable connecting the two in order to share waypoints. Works excellent.

Yes my husband says yes the mounting bracket for the structure scan transducer does come with this package.

No! But you can buy the complete unit with structure scan for a higher price. If you want the structure scan I would suggest that you buy the complete unit, you will save money.

I actually returned this and got the hds 9 touch that has lss2 builtin. But you do have sonar and structure scan with this. As far as down and side imaging goes I have yet to make heads or tails out of what that picture says to me

Yes. It comes with 2 transducers one being the normal and the other for structure scan which shoots left or right or down....not 180. I have one shooting through the hull and the structure scan transducer on the outside near my jackplate. It also has built in temp gauge which is nice. It also comes with one network cable which connects the HDS unit to the structure scan. Hope this helps.

Yes it is, but I am still testing it as I find either the sensor's or light source is not even on the image scanned. It was alright at first but getting poor with usage. The 22 MP setting did not show good results either. Hope someone else can verify.
