Upgradeing to 6.610 Release date 3/15/2013
« on: March 19, 2013, 05:08:15 PM »
Just got this update a few days ago from Humminbird and don't see any posts relating to this date 3/15/2013 . Seen the 6.6 but don't know if that's the same. I have the 5.410 version installed now with all working fine I just want to know if its worth the update or if it has any issues with this release date they sent me. Not sure if its the same as the 6.6 mentioned here. Any help is appreciated. I have the 898cSI model. Thanks, Joe K.

This is a correction to an email previously sent out on February 6, 2013 and also on February 15, 2013. The 1197c SI does not support the 360 Imaging product.  All other changes of this software release 6.600 are correct. 

Humminbird is proud to announce the release of software version 6.600 for 1198c SI, 998c SI, 898c SI and 798ci HD SI products which includes the entire list below.

This release includes the following changes:

Added 360 Imaging operation menus and capabilities
Added iPilotLINK operation menus and capabilities
LakeMaster map coding was updated to work with i-PilotLINK
Fixed an issue where SI data was scrolling at twice the intended rate
Fixed an issue where 2D/DI data was not in sync if 83/200 kHz mode was enabled
Fixed an issue where DI Zoom was not in sync
Fixed SI Sensitivity issues on the 898c SI, 998c SI, 1197c SI, 1198c SI
Fixed an issue where Demonstration Mode OFF would not force normal mode and a connected transducer state
Fixed an issue where rapidly forcing the unit into Simulator Mode could cause the unit to restart
Fixed an issue where Ethernet sonar subscriptions would eventually drop off if the Control Head was booted with Sonar turned Off
Fixed an issue where Ethernet sonar subscriptions would eventually drop off if Sonar was turned Off and then back On multiple times within 60 seconds without a reboot
Fixed an Ethernet issue where the Heading Line ON/OFF setting would not be saved between restarts while subscribed to a remote AS GPS + HS
Removed Universal Sonar II transducer selection option, now users should select dual beam as their selection
Tweaks were made to radar functionality to fix a memory leak
Fixed a bug that caused some models to sometimes skip a view when cycling through views
Locked NMEA output at 4800 baud when enabled

In addition, 6.600 for the 1197c SI supports all of the above except 360 imaging capabilities and menus.

Version 6.570, 6.580 and 6.590 for the 1158c, 1158c DI, 1157c, 958c DI, 958c, 858c DI, 858c, 788ci HD DI, 788ci HD and 778c HD have also been released. The changes on these models excludes the 360 Imaging capabilities along with above mentioned SI adjustments plus a few other differences.  Please see your Download Description in your Account for full details.

If you don't plan on getting the 360, I-Pilot link, or new GPS with heading sensor.......I would hold off for a while.  They are still working the bugs out of the 6.6 release.  The fixes are mostly with problems caused by the 6.6 release.
