Thread: HB 999 and 1199 with Lake master chip

The lakemaster chip was in last year ...all last year all units showed map of the lake and contours...so this info WAS being shared. I don't know if I'm not communicating in the right terminology or what...but last year ALL units were showing lake map with contours and waypoints. The only thing showing on the 2 999's are the waypoints...no lake map showing on the 2 999's. Something has changed since the update, I'm trying to figure out what.

Maybe when you went to default to download the new update it changed one of your settings. Probably still their just under a different setting.

I'm perplexed about what may have changed with the software update .... maybe some setting in mapping?.......but I have never seen anyone report any map sharing capabilities on the 99 series....just transducer, GPS, and waypoints.

If you have the original software revision you could go back to it and see what changes......I ALWAYS make sure I have a path back. If you don't have it, you should be able to get it from Humminbird if you give them a call.

Bob, I'm just going to bite the bullet and buy 2 more chips...I use the lake map on the bow to get to our waypoints and fish contours and I have the unit on the stern for my wife to see anything she wants, so the heck with it I'll buy 2 more chips and be done.
Thanks for your help.
