1 INTRODUCTION Thank you for purchasing a Lowrance sonar. Your X-28 is a high quality sonar designed for both professional and novice fishermen. These units have an automatic feature that finds and displays the bottom, fish, structure, and more! All you have to do is press the on key.
2 INSTALLATION - Bracket You can install the X-28 on the top of a dash or from an overhead with the supplied bracket. It can also be installed in the dash with an optional IDA- 3 or IDA-4 mounting kit. If you use the supplied bracket, you may be interested in the optional GBSA-1 swivel bracket kit.
3 POWER CONNECTIONS The X-28 works from a 12 volt DC system only. For the best results, run the power cable directly to the boat’s battery. Keep the power cable away from other boat wiring, especially the engine’s wires. This will give the best isolation from electrical noise.
4 KEYBOARD BASICS The unit sounds a tone when you press any key. This tells you the unit has accepted a command. PWR/CLEAR Use this key to turn the unit on and off. It also clears menu selections and the menus from the screen. MENU FWD/MENU REV The X-28 has many features that are accessed with these keys.
5 NOTE: Turning the X-28 off erases all user settings and it returns to the system defaults. For example, if you turn the lights on, then turn the unit off, the next time you turn the unit on, the lights will be off, since the default setting for the lights is off.
6 RANGE You can’t adjust the range when the X-28 is in the automatic mode. It is adjustable when the unit is in the manual mode, however. To do so, first put the unit in the manual mode. Now press a menu key until the “RANGE SEL” menu appears as shown at right.
7 21 FOOT UPPER LIMIT seconds and the menu will scroll off the screen’s left side. Pressing the PWR/CLEAR key also clears it. To change the lower limit, again make certain the unit is in the manual mode. Press a menu key until the "LOWER LIMIT" menu appears.
8 This is the zoom size menu. Zoom size is the distance between the upper limit and the lower limit. The upper limit shows at the top left corner of the screen. The lower limit is in the bottom left corner. For example, if the upper limit is 40 feet and the lower limit is 70 feet, the zoom window size is 30 feet.
9 press a menu key until the “MOVE ZOOM” menu appears as shown at right. This menu lets you move the zoom window up or down in one foot increments by pressing the arrow keys. Thus, you can move the zoom window up towards the surface, down to the bottom, or anywhere in between.
10 PWR/CLEAR key to clear the display. If you wait a few seconds, it will automatically clear. GRAYLINE ® Grayline lets you distinguish between strong and weak echoes.
11 The microcomputer is sophisticated, but it can be fooled. It can't distinguish between fish and other suspended objects such as turtles, submerged floats, air bubbles, etc. Individual tree limbs extending outwards from a group of limbs are the hardest objects for the Fish ID feature to distinguish from fish.
12 adjustable by pressing a menu key until the chart speed menu appears. Chart speed is set to maximum when the X-28 is first turned on. To decrease it, press the down arrow key. Press the up arrow key to increase the speed again. The percentage of chart speed also shows on this menu.
13 Digital This is the digital only screen. It shows the digital depth display at the top of the screen in very large numbers. The shallow and deep alarm settings are displayed beneath the digital depth. No chart shows on this screen. ALARMS FISH ALARM The Fish Alarm sounds a tone when a fish symbol appears on the screen.
14 sounds. At the same time the alarm sounds, a message box appears on the screen as shown at right. Press the up arrow key to silence the alarm. This will turn the alarm sound off until the shallow alarm is triggered again. To turn the alarm off, press a menu key until the shallow alarm menu appears.
15 switch to metric, the up arrow to switch to feet. Displays show in feet when the unit is first turned on. The menu will clear automatically after a few seconds or you can press the PWR/CLEAR key to clear the screen. DISPLAY CONTRAST The unit’s display contrast is adjustable to suit different lighting conditions.
16 SIMULATOR The X-28 has a simulator built into it that can show a simulated bottom signal with fish. All features of the X-28 work normally when the simulator is in use. You can change the range, zoom, and use the alarms as desired. To use the simulator, press a menu key repeatedly until the SONAR SIM menu ap- pears.

18 fish will arch, but turn the sensitivity up in deeper water to see the arch. Because of water conditions, such as heavy surface clutter, ther- moclines, etc., the sensitivity sometimes cannot be increased enough to get fish arches. One of the best ways to get fish arches is to expand or “zoom” a segment of the water.
19 SURFACE LAYER ABSORBS HEAT FROM THE SUN EPILIMNION THERMOCLINE MOST PRODUCTIVE ZONE FOR FISHING HYPOLIMNION Unit won’t turn on: 1. Check the power cable’s connection at the unit. Also check the wiring. 2. Make certain the power cable is wired properly.
20 Unit freezes, locks up, or operates erratically: 1. Electrical noise from the boat’s motor, trolling motor, or an accessory may be interfering with the sonar unit. Rerouting the power and transducer cables away from other electrical wiring on the boat may help.
21 rejection feature. This can cause the unit to eliminate weaker signals such as fish or even structure from the display. Try using resistor spark plugs or routing the sonar unit’s power and transducer cables away from other electrical wiring on the boat.
22 unit’s power cable and transducer cable away from the wiring that is causing the interference. VHF radio antenna cables radiate noise when transmitting, so be certain to keep the sonar’s wires away from it. You may need to route the sonar unit’s power cable directly to the battery to isolate it from other wiring on the boat.
