    Check the Network System Info to see if 3.360 is installed.

    Try Restore Factory Defaults with the transducer connected.

    Does anyone know where to find all the software update descriptions and release dates for the Gen1 Helix 10's? We only have some of them on this thread. For instance, I can't find the full version 1.64 description for Helix 10 gen1. Thanks.

    A friend tried to update his software on his Helix 7 G2N SI using the FishSmart app..... His unit is just staying on the reboot screen. He contacted hummingbird. They stated he is stuck in a reboot loop. that he must send the unit back to them. I was wondering if there was anything else he might try to get it out of this. What if he downloaded the software to a SD card and placed it in the unit. Is there a chance that it may see this update and try to update?? Also... He has a terrova 2017 model. That also needs the software updated as well. If he has to send it back to HB will they update that software as well if he asks for it?

    I installed it on the G2 as soon as it was released and tested on the water the next day. No issues. Do not have the G2N version.

    Anyone have Update 1.64x ? I updated to 1.90 and it has been a disaster. 1.83 and 1.84 did not do well either.
    Yes, I did ALL the required things prior to updates to a T.
    3 Helix 10 units. 1-Gen 2 Mega SI , 1 Gen1 SI , 1 Gen1 sonar/gps , Ulterra Ipilot link
    Repeated calls with Customer service has left me frustrated and still struggling for 2 + weeks.
    Left side on Mega SI not working, Mega DI not working , Digital depth messed up, random loss of G1 SI,DI

    SOLIX software version 3.420 for all SOLIX models
    Date 6/6/2019

    Notes:


    • Fixed an issue where 83/200 transducer CHIRP frequencies would not be configured correctly using transducer auto-detect.
    • Fixed an issue where 50 kHz from 50/200 and 50 kHz transducers was too weak.
    • Fixed an issue where manually configured transducers were not remembering user-defined start and stop CHIRP frequency ranges.

    Any info on when a software update for helix 10 g3n's might be coming? Seems like it's needed after searching and reading various forums. Seems like nobody running 1.940 is happy.

    The unhappy ones post the most. My G3's work great with 1.940.
    Since issues are not universal, it's tough to fix stuff.

    Software Update - HELIX 12 CHIRP MEGA SI+ GPS G3N v. 2.110
    Released 08-14-2019

    Software Description

    New Features:

    • LiveShare ZeroLine Support (GPS Models Only) - Multiple shoreline sources can now be individually selected in the AutoChart Live menu for use with AutoChart Live data including: “AutoChart PC” shorelines, new and improved AutoChart “LiveShare” shorelines, or “Zero Line SD Card” shorelines. Choose the one that works best for your lake or let the system automatically select based on the data that is available on-screen.
    • Imaging Water Column Sensitivity (Imaging Models Only) – SwitchFire on Side Imaging and Down Imaging has been changed to Water Column Sensitivity. This feature allows the user to increase or decrease the sensitivity of the sonar return that is in the water column. Once this is done, the user can adjust the sensitivity of the entire sonar return with the Sensitivity menu setting.
    • Imaging Contrast Improvements (Imaging Models Only) – Updated the contrast table for Side Imaging and Down Imaging Contrast
    • Built-In MEGA SI+ Support (MEGA SI/MEGA SI+ models only) – New transducer mode that supports the Minn Kota Built-In MEGA SI+ transducer.
    • Dynamic Imaging Contrast (Imaging Models Only) – Automatically enhances the contrast of the selected Side Imaging or Down Imaging color palette.


    General Fixes:
    SONAR:

    • Fixed a sonar noise issue at 30 FT deep.
    • Fixed a CHIRP frequency range issue at 130 kHz.
    • Fixed an issue with the SI Enhance menu that was causing Sharpness and Contour Mode to allow invalid menu options.
    • Fixed an issue where DI Contrast was not functional on 455 and 800 kHz on G3/G3N models and 455/800/MEGA on G2/G2N models.

    360 IMAGING:

    • Fixed an issue where deploying the transom mount 360 Imaging would cause 2D, DI, and SI to stop scrolling until the unit was rebooted.
    • Fixed an issue with the sonar cursor on 2D, DI, and SI panes that was being caused by 360 Imaging.

    i-PILOT LINK:

    • Fixed an issue where Follow-the-Contour would not populate on AutoChart Live data that was being displayed on top of the Humminbird Basemap.

    CHART:

    • Fixed an issue where heading data from the AS GPS HS would not display in a heading databox.

    SYSTEM:

    • Fixed an issue where putting a networked unit into Ice Mode would leave the unit is an invalid Open Water Mode / Ice Mode state.
    • Fixed several Bluetooth device pairing issues.
