    So I have my 997 networked with a 787 and a weather sense. I updated the software on the 997 to 5.84 version…now it doesn’t recognize any of the Interlink stuff…NO GPS, No weathersense, nothing…only the the transducer. When I pull the GPS out of the Interlink and plug it directly in to the com cable and then into the unit it seems to work but then the stuff doesn’t work on the front unit. Nothing has changed with the unit in any way…It worked fine before I updated the software now it is problematic. Any thoughts? I’d love some help.

    Did you update both units? Unless I am mistaken both units need to have the same software version to talk properly.

    I believe you are correct, they have to be up-dated seperately before booted up with the joining cable.

    Also make sure you set everything back to factory default settings before you update. This can screw things up too if you don’t.
