Lowrance Hook Reveal 7x TS Details
The Lowrance Hook Reveal 7x TS is built around a keypad interface and a customizable Home page with a Tools panel, application page icons and a Customize option. A short press on the Power key opens the System Controls dialog, which gives quick access to backlight, Night mode, data overlay, sonar logging and panel split adjustment. Active functions show an orange bar above their icon. Repeated short presses on the Power key cycle through the preset brightness levels.
To save energy, Standby mode turns off the sonar and the screen backlight while the system keeps running in the background. A short press on the Power key returns the unit to normal operation. In an emergency, pressing both Zoom keys creates a Man Overboard waypoint. The display then switches to a zoomed panel centered on the vessel and shows navigation information back to the first MOB point. You can create more MOB waypoints, but navigation to later ones must be started manually.
Genesis Live builds real-time depth contour maps from live sonar soundings recorded to the memory card. More passes over an area produce better maps. Users can adjust transparency and contour interval, and choose a Navigation, Depth shading, Paper chart or Safety shading palette. Safety shading highlights water shallower than a defined safety depth. The feature turns itself off if the card is removed or full, and its data is not adjusted for tidal offset.
In the DownScan view, FishReveal adds fish arches to the high-resolution image. It has its own Sensitivity, Colorline, Surface clarity and Palette controls. On the traditional sonar view, the Custom and Ice Fishing modes offer Ping speed, Scroll speed, Noise rejection, Surface clarity and Colorline. These help reduce clutter from bilge pumps, engine vibration, wakes and temperature inversions. The Amplitude scope shows echo strength by width and color intensity, and DownScan images can be overlaid on the regular sonar view.
StructureMap places SideScan imagery on the GPS plotter, with settings for transparency, palette, contrast, water column and clearing live history. For the best images, Lowrance recommends steering so that tall structures such as wrecks pass to one side of the boat rather than directly underneath. You should also avoid overlapping history trails when scanning an area side by side. The water column option shows bait schools, but it can reduce how accurately the image is placed on the map.
The alarm system checks for dangerous situations and system faults continuously. Alarms have no time-out: they stay active until you acknowledge them with Close or Disable, or until the cause is fixed. For maintenance, the unit has no field-serviceable parts. Rinse the screen with fresh water, then dry it with a microfiber or soft cotton cloth. Do not use solvents, pressure washers or car washes. A protective sun cover is sold separately.
The built-in Service assistant creates a support report on a memory card. The report includes the software version, the serial number and data from the settings file. Software updates are downloaded from lowrance.com to a non-mapping card and installed at power-up. A Simulator with a retail demo mode and your own sonar source files lets you practice onshore. The Sun/Moon and Trip info tools add useful planning data.
