We can do the same thing with our HB recordings...

When I record I turn off the 83kHz channel...simply to have less data for the Humviewer playback...(but that's another story)...

Why the 83kHz channel was turned off for the ONIX Simulator recordings...we can only guess...

Maybe the 83kHz running during the ONIX Simulator recording made the rest of the Simulator recording look...uh...not so good...

:dono

rickie,I agree with what your saying about the sonar has to be running for it to be recorded,but this is my 998 and I though that I had a 83khz simulator recording before the new update.

I would doubt HB lists every tweak in the update verbiage for us to see...

My mistake...I thought it was your ONIX simulator...

Maybe the update included a new Simulator recording...

I do not know...

Is the swimming pool still in the Simulator with the new software...??

Rickie

It could be that there never was a 83 recording,with my 998,im not for sure:dono
Maybe someone else could check there unit and post the results

6.830 on the 999 has no 83khz simulator

Like Gomer said no 83Khz - I think I had 6.680 on my 998c HD SI when I unboxed it - and it wasn't there?
NONE - my 798ci SI is @ 6.3 and it does have 83, it's "before v6.49"......

I'll have to check my 1197...

I'm not 100% sure it has the 83kHz Simulator recording...

List...list....now where did I put that darn "to do" list...??

:yikes

Rickie

I read that doug doesn't run the 83 and they used one of his videos for the simulator.

1st test...

*Put the "Beam Select" on 200kHz ....
*Put the "Imaging Frequency" on 455kHz...
*Get a clean straight full screen history in SI....(your normal scanning boat speed and Chart Speed)...
*Open a zoom box on the vertical line where the water column meets the bottom detail...
*Zoom all the way in on this vertical line...
*Take a screenshot...
*Post the screenshot...

2nd test....

*Put the "Beam Select" on 200kHz....
*Put the unit on 800kHz....
*Get a clean straight full screen history in SI....(your normal scanning boat speed and Chart Speed)...
*Open a zoom box on the vertical line where the water column meets the bottom detail...
*Zoom all the way in on this vertical line...
*Take a screenshot...
*Post the screenshot..

Heres the test shots rickie......

These shots are all using 200/83 for the 2d and 455 for si....http://i826.photobucket.com/albums/z...pszvogionn.pnghttp://i826.photobucket.com/albums/z...pspsvn6zih.pnghttp://i826.photobucket.com/albums/z...psnlsmsaeu.pnghttp://i826.photobucket.com/albums/z...ps6gpdn2v1.png
