Title: Helix 10 update
Post by: fishinman on August 11, 2019, 10:42:32 AM

Did an update on my Helix Si G2...
Now when I stop to find a brushpile, etc... unit
takes up to 20 sec to start reading depth...didn’t do this
Before update., always read immediately..
.. is this common? Anything to do?
Thanks, fish’

Sometimes software updates change things that we don't expect also  ...

If the xducer is on the trolling motor and you're raising the trolling motor out of the water to move to a different spot - it's a good idea to use Standby Mode (under the Power button Xpress Menu) to put the unit unit to sleep until the xducer is put back into the water  ..
