Lowrance HDS Gen 3 – Power Pole Integration
Announcing upcoming software update for the HDS Gen3 fishfinder/chartplotter series in 7-, 9- and 12-inch models — enabling wireless compatibility with the complete line of C-Monster compatible Power-Pole products. These efficient hydraulic anchors and all-electric Micro Anchor products quickly and quietly anchor fishing boats and kayaks in shallow-water situations. A simple touchscreen control on the Lowrance High Definition System (HDS) Gen3 display allows anglers to wirelessly engage the anchor — saving anglers additional steps and minutes, so they can focus on fishing. The innovative Lowrance SmartSteer™ user interface allows anglers to intuitively switch between electric-steer, trolling-motor as well as outboard-motor control. The system also allows users to easily convert trails to routes to retrace a previous track and to make the perfect pass by fish or structure. Now adding Power-Pole Shallow Water Anchor control directly from the HDS Gen3 display, greatly enhances the system’s capabilities and ensures anchoring in the easiest way possible.
