Members JigNpiggiN Posted February 19, 2013 Members Posted February 19, 2013 So I have bought and installed a Hb 598ci HDSI on my Champion. But as luck would have it, it's not working properly. The 2D, DI, GPS, and everything else is working good. On the side imaging screen, I am seeing 2 lines perpendicular in the left water column. In the image 75ft left and right, the bottom, im also seeing lines throughout. I even went by some brush that was sticking out of the water and all I could see was the shadow of it, no detail what so ever. When mounting the transducer, I did my homework and mounted it below and to the right of the motor mount. The right/left view is not blocked by anything. Does anyone have a clue on what could be wrong here?
fishinwrench Posted February 19, 2013 Posted February 19, 2013 You're mounted down low (by the bilge plug and livewell intakes) , correct ? Not up high directly below the motor mount?
Dutch Posted February 20, 2013 Posted February 20, 2013 A pic of your mounting and some screen shots would help a lot.
Guest Posted February 20, 2013 Posted February 20, 2013 Whats the cheapest HB gps/ sideimaging unit available?
grizwilson Posted February 20, 2013 Posted February 20, 2013 Without seeing a picture of the mount???? Have you checked for software updates? but get some ideas here: http://www.bbcboards.net/humminbird-sonar-gps/ “If a cluttered desk is a sign, of a cluttered mind, of what then, is an empty desk a sign?”- Albert Einstein
