So finally heard back from Humminbird on issue where ML and original 360 won't work together. Pretty much a middle finger response and they don't test everything. Said they aren't fixing it and the recommendation they stated doesn't work and should have know this before they sent response as the Humminbird tech and I tested this while on the phone when first reported. Pretty much shell out more money to upgrade or go blank yourself. Below first is the original post on here and second will be the email I got from them.
"The latest software updates do not let mega live and original 360 work together on same network. Couple post down someone suggested to unhook 360 to get mega live software to update successfully. Also had to end up leaving 360 unplugged to get mega live to sync network to all 3 solix gen1 units. Once I did that I plugged 360 back up and everything connected but wasn't able to change settings under chirp sonar for mega live and no setting at top of mega live view. Unplug 360 and there you go can change settings .
With the latest software updates my i-pilot link connects and then goes out and says trolling motor disconnected. Then it will come back then go out. When I was doing settings and it was disconnected the trolling motor would beep like it does when you turn it on but wouldn't connect.
I've talked to Humminbird on phone today and ran test. Hopefully they can test and fix it. Would like to use both.
Long winded but thought I would document issue and hope to help others."
Response:
I apologize for taking so long to get back with you on this. Thank you so much for being patient with me. I found out that we did not really test the MEGA LIVE and the AS 360 together but it would be recommended to install a separate battery switch and allow the MEGA LIVE to connect last within the network. Unfortunately, there will not be a software update released to resolve this issue and, I do apologize for this inconvenience.
Good Boating and Fishing!
