Does everyone leave their console graphs on all day when you are on the trolling motor? I know when people sell them they ask how many hours?? Other than networking with the front graph what are the reasons to keep them turned on? Hope I don't get blasted in comments...lol

I put mine on the console on standby when I'm up front.

The past couple of years I've gotten into the habit of putting my console graphs on standby when I'm on the trolling motor.

Doesn't it just look so cool to have them all on? Anything left running will just eat power. The screen eats most of it by the way, as it takes a LOT of power to make it bright enough for viewing in sunlight. As far as networking goes, they'll synch up very rapidly when they reconnect, so that's not a negative impact.

I put mine on stand-by unless I am going to fish shallow for a long stretch of time then it is turned off. One less ping the fish have to hear and when shallow not much help anyway.

Dumb question maybe, but how do you put a HDS 12 Live in standby mode?

Push the power button once and a screen will pop up that says STANDBY. Touch the power button once to turn everything back on.

You spoiled this experiment in continuing education! Not everyone gets a manual. My 2 HDS units did not, nor did my 1199 bird. The bird had a disc that covered install. There are also guys who buy boats used that come with a set of keys and that is it.

My 1199HD doesn't have a stand by mode, that I can find. I have been putting it in gps only while on the trolling motor to share waypoints. I have not found a Stand-by on it. I know I'm on tech

You are correct. I just had two new Garmins with LiveScope installed. The Garmins came with no user manual in their respective box. Only an installation manual was included. The installers did take me out on the water and showed me several things to get me going. I asked about a user manual and they said Garmin has them on line. Push the power button once and a screen will pop up that says STANDBY. Touch the power button once to turn everything back on. I was hoping he would go read the manual.

Those are called "owner's manuals". They make great reading material! Electronics came with boat but no manuals. Then again, in the time you took to write that, you could have told me, or even not replied at all, which would have been just fine.
