    Question Networked Solix not getting temp at the bow

    Hi all,

    I have 2 Solix gen 1's networked direct with the ethernet cable, no hub. The unit at the console is the master and has the transducers connected to it (Thru hull and SI ducer). The unit at the bow has no transducer connected and gets all it's info from the master unit (mapping, SI, depth, etc.)

    After updating to the latest update (4.210) I'm no longer getting temp up at the bow. I still get depth, mapping, SI, all of it. Just not temp. I'm reading temperature fine at the console, but not at the bow. I've poked thru the network settings and everything looks fine to me, but maybe I'm missing something??

    Obviously not the end of the world if I can't fix it, but it would be nice to know what the water temp is up front. Any help would be great!
    Thanks!

    There was a bug at one point where you had to go to Data Sources, make another source selection (or none), and then return to the source you want. This was required for the networked units. I thought this was resolved in the last 4.xxx update though.

    This worked, thanks. I went into the data sources on the bow unit and basically toggled all the temp sensors from auto to manual and back again.
