Took out the new units this week and had some questions. Helix 10 MEGA SI GPS, Helix 9 MEGA DI GPS with trolling motor puck for transducer.
AutoChart Live was a waste this time as my depths kept changing for some reason pretty drastically. only a shallow river and it would go from 6' to 39' then 200' etc. not always but enough to mess the mapping up.
Both units would always show me in both Sonar and DS, Double the signal ex: 6' of water, it would show 12' and both were set to AUTO bottom. ?
Can the Side Scan have the "range" lines for 10; 20' 40' etc off to each side?
If I am driving along I seem to lose side scan around 8-10mph is this normal? I cant recall what my old HDS use to do.
If my sidescan is running, and I want to "go back/trackback" I feel that if its off the screen already, its gone for good? Is that the case?
Thanks for all help and I did do a factory update and reset on both devices after testing them. The 10 was already up to date and the 9 was one behind.
