LMS-240 specifications

The Lowrance LMS-240 is a groundbreaking electronic fish finder and chartplotter that has made waves in the marine electronics industry. Introduced in the early 2000s, this device combines advanced sonar technology with user-friendly features, making it a popular choice among recreational and professional anglers alike.

One of the standout features of the LMS-240 is its impressive 240 x 320 pixel display. The high-resolution screen ensures clarity in viewing underwater structures, fish, and any potential hazards. Backlit for easy visibility in low-light conditions, the display allows users to interpret sonar readings effectively, providing a significant advantage on the water.

The Lowrance LMS-240 utilizes a dual-frequency sonar system, offering both 200 kHz and 83 kHz frequencies. This dual-frequency capability ensures detailed readings at various depths. The 200 kHz frequency provides a narrow beam ideal for pinpointing fish close to the boat, while the 83 kHz frequency provides a wider coverage, making it easier to scan larger areas. This versatility allows anglers to customize their fishing approach based on conditions and target species.

Another prominent feature of the LMS-240 is its built-in GPS navigation. The device supports the Lowrance mapping system and is compatible with various map card formats, allowing users to create detailed maps of their favorite fishing spots. This capability also ensures accurate waypoint marking, making it easy for anglers to return to productive areas.

The LMS-240 features a user-friendly interface, with intuitive menus and options that make setup and operation straightforward, even for those new to fish finders. The ability to split the screen between sonar readings and GPS navigation enhances its usability, allowing anglers to track both fish and navigation progress simultaneously.

Additionally, the Lowrance LMS-240 is designed for rugged marine environments, featuring a weather-resistant casing that can withstand the harsh conditions often encountered on the water. Its compact design allows for easy installation on various types of boats, ranging from small fishing vessels to larger yachts.

In summary, the Lowrance LMS-240 electronic fish finder and chartplotter is a versatile and reliable tool for any angler. With its high-resolution display, dual-frequency sonar, built-in GPS, and user-friendly interface, it offers a comprehensive solution for enhancing fishing experiences. Whether you're a seasoned pro or a weekend warrior, the LMS-240 is designed to elevate your time on the water.
