The latest update will not upload automatically, it has to be downloaded to a micro card and manually installed. The card cannot be larger than a 32g.

If you have not calibrated your point 1 then that needs to be done as well assuming everything was hooked up properly. Network/devices/click on Point-1/calibrate




I'll check lowrance for the update and put it on a card. Thanks JB.

You still need to do the Point-1 calibration on the water. Read the manual on how to do that, and follow the steps very carefully to successfully calibrate. This is going to involve some button pushing and driving the boat in nice even circles.

You should be using the internal GPS for way pointing and the point 1 for heading only. If you could not find the grass bed again with Side scan possibly it may not have been grass.

The marker idea works and will answer your questions.

This was a bit comical, pretty sure we have the typical case of “user error” here.
