    Solix - issue creating waypoints

    Multiple times this year I’ve had an issue where I cannot create a waypoint on my bow unit. If I reboot the unit, then I’m back in business. Anyone have this happen to them? Any resolution / fix? 3.4 software, networked solix 12’s and ultrex with ipilot link.

    I had the exact same issue. I would hit mark,mark and no waypoint. Restart unit and it would Work.

    I figured it out, if you look at the top of your screen, there is a symbol up there with a red line thru it. Just touch it and it will go away and now you can create a waypoint. Sorry for the poor explanation, I just figured it out today. Pm me a phone# and I can text you a pic and you will see it plain as day.

    hope this helps.

    I have a solix 10 and I've only been on the water twice. I've experienced the same issue. I've seen the red X but it didn't work for me. Shut down and problem goes away.

    Worked for me. Touch the cursor icon at the top of the screen that has the red line through it.

    Maybe someone can explain why that icon appears in the first place.

    Doesn't that pop up there when you activate the cursor?

    Yes it does. If you touch the icon, that turns the curser off. It functions like EXIT.
