Tried that first. I thought it would automatically upgrade when I powered it on but it didn't.
I just repeated the directions on the box.
Mine took about 10 minutes or so to completely install. It shuts off after download, then reboots and installs the program. Just like a windows update and a restart.
You can go to the system settings scroll to ABOUT and see what version you have. Settings-System-About
I checked that, it shows sonar version 1.4.3 and at the top of the about screen it shows HDS-7T v3.0 which I think is the version I have. Wondering if I should try downloading the update from Lowrance again in case I got some corrupted data the first time. That make sense??
Wouldn't hurt I don't guess, but it is a zip file. What is the name of the UPD file you downloaded? Should be: HDS_Gen2_Touch-4.0-51.1.69-st (130,734 KB)
I am sitting here playing with my unit. I ain't smart enough to know this stuff from memory.
Yea that worked. There exists two possibilities: 1. the 1st download was corrupted or 2. I may have downloaded the standard HDS and not the HDS touch upgrade.:banghead
In any event it is working now. Thanks for walking me through this. Now to get familiar with the changes. :ThumbsUp
Musta been a corrupt file.
mine is a new unit and it updated automatically when I inserted the sd chip and turned the unit on. it should not require your involvement. I assume you downloaded from the Lowrance site.Quote:
