I have seen some discussion of this on another forum.  Not much info available yet.

It is some sort of 2D enhancement......Some will be testing it this week.

I'm hoping to hear a technical description of what this does but will probably not hear anything back this year... it is New Year's Eve after all!

If the temps are OK Sat night I will test "Jigging mode" and snap some shots to the SD Card to post.
I'm hoping it's more CPU cycles dedicated to the 2D....

Had one screen shot with a black anomaly in it out of 145 shots, I posted them ALL.
We boxed 5 walleyes and another  C&R that was close to 13lb.
HB has always taken pretty good care of this customer - I flashed it like so many units before and have no doubts it will be a nice improvement for the 2D side of things, plus the SI looked as good as v7.09.

Stop by, take a peek....

  Robert.  Thanks for going above and beyond the call testing this release and getting documentation of the jigging mode kicked off.......Guess you are going have to continue it with fishing on TOP of the ice.. :D

So far it sounds like this may be another successful software update .... and maybe it fixed things without breaking other things....... Lets hope it's a trend.

Now, how about getting the software people to talk to the documentation people.....and getting rid of the BIG TEXT BOXES.

Wouldn't THAT be nice Bob???
I would settle for reduced size or all translucent readouts!

OK.........Here's the Humminbird description of what Jigging Mode does in the new 7.460 software for SI units:

On the SI unit Jiggin Mode is a selection in the 2D Sonar Express Menu. It allows the user to select the sonar ping pattern for use while vertical jigging. When turned ON the ping pattern will be: 200 kHz, Left SI Beam, Right SI Beam, 83 kHz, repeat. With this mode turned OFF the ping pattern will be: 200 kHz, Left SI Beam, Right SI Beam, 83 kHz, Left SI Beam, Right SI Beam, repeat. Basically this feature prioritizes the 2D beam over the SI beam.

Deborah @ Humminbird

Here's my summary and some other info from Doug V:

Me....With the Jigging Mode on and HDSI transducer selected, the 2D is given equal priority to SI in the ping sequence.......When Jigging Mode is off and HDSI transducer is selected, the SI is pinged 2 times for every cycle and the 2D is pinged once, giving SI top priority........If Dual Beam is selected, the 2D is the ONLY thing pinged, so 2D is given top priority.

Doug...In Jigging mode it will return the sequence back to the Pre6.6xx performance.

Me.....If anyone has the new software installed please post us some 2D pics with jigging mode on.......Robert got a bunch before his water got hard, but we need to see shots from others to determine if the 2D problems have been resolved.
