I have an Elite FS mounted on the bow. The map continually rotates while the boat is stationary. What causes this, what are my options to correct?

Thanks, That's kind of what I thought but the Point One description does not specify HDS Gen 3 or Elite FS compatible.

I had an HDS Gen 3 and it was compatible...cant speak to the Elite FS..

I had the same issue you did and it gave me fits until I had the point one installed. I would mark something on the graph with a waypoint and then when I went back and tried to fish it, it kept moving and I would lose my serenity...

The Point 1 has been out since Gen 1 HDS if you have a Nema Port you can use the Point 1 Gen3 and Elite FS are good together except the will not share Active Target but everything else. Best Lowest cost Performance upgrade you can do.
