Lowrance electronic X58DF Fish Finder User Manual

Place the transducer into the epoxy, twisting and turning it to force
any air bubbles out from under the transducer face. The face of the
transducer should be parallel with the hull, with a minimum amount
of epoxy between the hull and transducer. After the epoxy dries,
route the cable to the sonar unit.
Speed/Temperature Sensors
The X51 and X58DF can accept as many as two temperature sensors,
which can be used to monitor the temperature of surface water, a live
well or some other location. These units can also accept an optional
speed sensor for showing speed and distance traveled.
The X58DF is packed with a speed sensor and a transducer containing
a built-in temp sensor. If you want a second temp reading, you will
need either an external temp sensor or a combination speed/temp sen-
sor. See the Accessory Ordering Information in the back of this manual.
If a second temp sensor is used, it must be the model TS-2X. This model
has a fixed electronic "address" which designates it as the second of two
temp sensors. Dual temperatures are only displayed on the Full Chart
page. The Large Digital page will only display the primary temperature
sensor.

Using any additional sensors also requires use of the MY-4X adapter
cable. See the following charts for sample sensor combinations and ca-
ble connections.
