HDS data overlay and selecting sources

    Sorry for the long post.

    Over the weekend while I was adding more information on the structure scan screen like water temp, depth, speed, etc.

    I noticed that the depth on my unit at the console would default the sonar to my minnkota so if I made a quick run to a different spot, I left the bow unit on and noticed that the temp, sonar and depth blanked out on the console.

    Until I turned off the bow unit, the console reverted back to using the skimmer.

    While both units were on, I went into the data overlay and edited the sources for each item and couldn’t change it as it noted (invalid) next to the skimmer.

    I ran though the menus and didn’t find anything that stuck out at me to change.

    anyone else run into this already? I am going to give it another try tonight before I reset the units and start over.

    It should read the transducer that is connected to the
    unit until you change the sonar source from that unit to
    read the info from another.

    I’m not sure why your console unit defaulted to the bow
    unit transducer.

    See page 83 of your manual for selecting sonar source information.
