    Default Need A Little Help


    I have a Humminbird 959DI on the bow hooked up to a 360 on a Da'Ducer mount. A month ago, all was well & could mark waypoints while on the 360 screen and see them as I was coming up on them. Now, something has jumped goofy & I can't mark waypoints nor can I see the waypoints from the 360 screen. I have the most current software on both the core unit and the 360 transducer, and have restored defaults twice. Other than that, it's working flawlessly and will put you smack dab on top of a stake bed. Anybody got any ideas, or is this a "send back" thing???

    Menu button twice, scroll to right, setup 360, make sure navigation is turned on. This will display wp's on 360 screen and allow you to mark new waypoints.

    Yea. That's what I'm thinking. Been baking in the sun in the driveway playing with every setting I can think of to no avail. I appreciate your help Redge. Looks like the 959 may have to make a road trip cause I sure don't know what to do at this point.

    Found this on another site. Do you have an SD card in the slot?

I'm able to get an icon to show by using the "Go To" button and the anchor icon also shows up when using that function via the trolling motor remote but the "Mark" key doesn't create a waypoint either by itself or when using the cursor.


    Both units were recently upgraded to the 7.65 software, the 899 is fine but the 999 hasn't been since. So unless someone has a better idea the only thing I can think to try is to reload the software again on the 999 but I suppose there could be an incorrect setting so I thought I'd check here before having to reset all my settings if I download the software again.

    Please help if you've got an idea....

    Thanks!

    This is common glitch when you have the save screen capture option turned on, but no SD card in the unit. Turn off the screen capture option, or install an SD card, and all should be well.

    Man I appreciate the thought. I never use screen shots or a SD card. Just wanted my waypoints saved as I came across brush piles, stakebeds, etc. I called Humminbird & they had never heard of the issue & wanted it sent back so that's what I did. Hopefully will get it back soon & all will be good. These cool nights have me itching to go.
