i just picked up my new rig with locator/gps installed,they installed two transducers (1) 200m,and (1) 50/200, i didn't order the 50/200 and really don't need it,my question is will one interfere with the other or should i remove the 50/200 . thanks kj.

I don't know how they did this with out a switch box, the lcx15 only has provisions for plugging in 1 transducer so unless they installed a switch box I cannot see that you really have 2 active units and even then you only have 1 on at a time. I'm suprised because a 50/200 is like $200 alone so why would they do this?

Something does not sound right unless you have two units in the boat or a switch, so you can use one or the other transducer for the X-15. The 50/200 is a big transducer and the 200 is a smaller transducer. Is there a pick up with a speed wheel handing off the back of your boat. You won't have interference because the X-15 won't run both transducers at the same time. Like I said something does not sound right.

Just check like PJM said. Your unit will only run one tranducer! They might have put the speed and temp on one side and the transduced on the other!

I just put an x-15 on my boat. I have the 200 skimmer and they threw
in the speed and temp both come off of the transducer port with a
y connector that runs 1- the transducer and the other 2- supports the
temp speed and up to 1 more temp sensor , the 200 comes with a built in temp. You can have up to three temp sensors.
