I don't know , maybe it's the angle of the dangle or the intensity on the downscan wasn't set intense enough or whatever...To be honest I am not totally impressed with the downscan on my 997C...At times it looks great and other times it doesn't show much or as much as the 2D...Not sure of the cause, I have read that it may be learning curve, operator error or a new transducer is needed...More time will tell...

I would love to see a Lowrance downscan in person to compare...Side ways they are both great, I would like to compare the down...

Did you restore to factory settings before you inserted the sd card?

Look on the SD card and be sure the update is loaded on it.

Turn the unit off. Then you put the card in. When you power the unit on if nothing happens, call Humminbird after 8am today. 1-800-633-1468

Hit view until you see a black screen and it will work. You will need to be in the water.
