Thank yall so much for your help guess ill give that emulator a try! Thanks again hope yall land a big one!
I've installed the emulator 4 times and it won't ever come up. Some kind of error. My guess is that it's setup for winxp. After all, isn't the 520c a discontinued model? I bought one in late Nov off ebay for my boat project and have not got to the point of installing it. I just hooked it up to a battery in my living room and played around with it while watching TV. Nice thing about the GPS portion is that the menu is the same as the IFinder I have. So, I am somewhat familiar with the GPS portion of the unit. All I need to do is read the manual bout 20 times to figure out everything I can do with the thing.
had the same problem with my emulator. Oh well. try setting your sensitivity while out fishing. Put your jig under the transducer when you see it, adjust sensitivity until it almost disappears. Sensitivity is set. I have a 480 unit that I use the "fish reveal" and it really works well once adjusted correctly. Don't know if 520 has this, but it works well. You will have to play with it to get the settings right for what you want.
Go tou youtube, there are several demonstrations on there that are very helpful.
Waht do i need to type in on youtube
Thanks for the link. This answers the post I made in this section earlier today. I will try to learn more about my LCX26cHD w/GPS and my X510c.
