Welcome to the Humminbird Side Imaging Forums DiNozzo.
What wires did you connect from the NMEA pigtail wire to your VHF radio?
-
i have connectet the with and black to the VHF...
-
as shown int the attach files i have connectet the brown from the VHF to the white in the "Pig Tail" and the Blue from the VHF to the Black from teh "Pig Tail"
-
You may want to try connecting to the Black NMEA pigtail wire to the radio's ground.

Hallo
and thx for the reply
i have tryied to connect as you wrote but with no luck the only way the VHF is getting af gps signal is when i connect them as i wrote.

Not sure what is going on than DiNozzo.
Anyone else have any suggestions?
-
could it be a sorftware glitz and would a update fix it..?? and where do i see the sorftware version
-
The NMEA output works fine on some other radios so I do not think that it is a software glitz on our end.
The software version of your unit can be seen by setting the Self Test View to “Visible”. This is done under the Views menu tab. You will then have to scroll through all of the available Views until you get to it.
