    Axiom questions

    After being on the water the first time with my 12 at the bow and the 9 at the console I am very impressed. Got a couple questions. Can you not use the front unit at all if the console unit is not powered on. I know you couldn't network but you should be able to use the front transducer and chart.
    Do the units have a standby mode?

    What unit is your map card in and what unit or units has transducers hooked to it. If your map card and transducer are in the bow unit you should be able to turn off the console unit with no effect.

    You should be able to see the 2D but not the 3D!!

    The unit up front beeps the whole time if the console unit is not powered up.

    Are both units networked with a Raynet cable? If they are, it sounds like the console unit is set as the data master and if console unit is off you are getting a warning message telling you that you need to select another data master - the bow unit in this case.

    If the console is the Data Master, then it has to be on for now to work.

    When I do that I just make the one in the front the master to stop the beeping. The next time you go fishing just turn the console one on first and then turn it back to the master.
