Sondeur Eagle 4x

Yes, the Eagle 4x fishfinder has an IPX7 waterproof rating. This means it is protected against temporary immersion in water up to 1 meter deep for 30 minutes.

No, the Lowrance Eagle 4x is a dedicated fishfinder. It does not include a GPS receiver or chartplotter functionality. Its primary function is fish detection and bottom structure display.

To adjust the backlight brightness, simply press the power button repeatedly in short bursts. Each press will cycle through the available brightness levels.

The Lowrance Eagle 4x screen can be installed in two ways:

Gimbal mount: The bracket is included and allows the unit to be mounted on a flat surface and easily adjusted.Panel mount: It can be directly integrated into a dashboard for a cleaner finish.

The Eagle 4x fishfinder operates on a 12 V DC power supply. The device accepts a voltage range from 10.4 V to 17 V DC.

It is recommended to install a 3 Amp fuse on the power circuit to protect your Eagle 4x fishfinder from voltage spikes.

The Lowrance Eagle 4x has a single depth sounder port designed to be used with the Lowrance Bullet Skimmer transducer. This is the recommended transducer for this unit.

No, the Lowrance Eagle 4x is a standalone device. It has no network connectivity ports such as NMEA 2000 or Ethernet, and therefore cannot share data with other displays, GPS units, or instruments.

To clean the housing and screen, use a soft cloth dampened with warm water and a small amount of liquid soap or mild detergent. Never use harsh chemicals, abrasives, or high-pressure cleaners.

Yes, the operating temperature range of the Lowrance Eagle 4x extends from -15°C to 55°C (5°F to 131°F), allowing it to operate in freezing conditions.

No, absolutely not. The device's voltage range is 10.4 to 17 V DC. Connecting it to a 24 V system would cause irreversible damage. If you have a 24 V system, you must use a DC/DC voltage converter to step down the voltage to 12 V.

No, this is not possible. The Lowrance Eagle 4x is a depth sounder only and does not have chartplotter functionality. The Micro SD card slot is used for software updates and depth sounder data logging, but not for mapping.

The weight of the Lowrance Eagle 4x screen, without its mounting bracket, is 0.28 kg (0.624 lb). It is a very lightweight and compact device.

The base installation does not require highly specialized tools. You will need:

A drill with bits suitable for your hull material.Crosshead and/or flathead screwdrivers.A crimping tool and terminals for electrical connections.Marine sealant for installing the transducer.

For optimal performance, the transducer must be installed at the stern (transom) of the boat, in an area where water flow is as laminar as possible. Avoid placing it directly behind hull planks, water intakes, or in the propeller’s wash to prevent air bubbles that could disrupt the signal.

Yes, the Lowrance Eagle 4x is usually supplied with its power and data cable, as well as the mounting bracket and the Bullet Skimmer transducer with its own mounting kit.

The Lowrance Eagle 4x is equipped with a compact display offering a resolution of 272 x 480 pixels. It has a viewing angle of 80 degrees in all directions (up, down, left, right), ensuring excellent data readability onboard, regardless of your position.

The device operates on a standard 12 V DC electrical system (tolerated range between 10.4 and 17 V DC) and requires a 3 A fuse. Its maximum power consumption is very low (2.34 W). For physical installation, you can choose between flush-mounting directly on the dashboard or surface-mounting using the bracket.

This entry-level model features a single transducer port specifically compatible with the Bullet Skimmer transducer. This setup is ideal for occasional anglers seeking reliable and easy-to-use fish detection without complex configurations.

The fishfinder interface is designed to be highly responsive in emergency situations. To instantly create an "overboard" waypoint (MOB), simply press the Zoom in (+) and Zoom out (-) buttons simultaneously.
