899ci SI HD software?
« on: July 14, 2014, 07:27:38 PM »
Im looking for older firmware versions for my 899ci SI HD graph.
Im having an issue trying to connect my Ipilot Ilink to my powerdrive V2.
My graph will show it connect then immediately disconnect and power off.
Cant keep the graph on long enough to flash the latest firmware for the Ipilot.

Cant find any downloads on this site for my graph.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.

Welcome to the Humminbird Side Imaging Forums AaronB.

It would be best that you work with the Humminbird Customer Resource Center folks for this as there is always the potential for something to go wrong when you load an older version of software into your unit.

It would be best if you worked with them too as it involves your i-Pilot Link Controller and Remote.

I can also provide this software to you if you will send me an e-mail with a request to do so.  I will need to know the version (by number) that you want or I will need the serial number and model name of your unit so that I can find out what the original software version of your unit was when it was produced.

Thanks for the reply greg.
I did get a hold of customer service and they wanted me to ship my 899 back to them.
I told them to send me the older firmware first to see if that helps.
They are emailing me a link to it now so I will see if that helps.
I'll keep you guys uodated.
Thanks for the help.

Ok, just to follow up and my progress here.
Finally after having sending my old unit in and receiving it back with the same issue that was never addressed by HB I received a replacement unit in the mail today.
This unit connect with the ipilot link and does not shut down my 899 when it connects.
My only concern is this........

The replacement unit came preloaded with old software. 6.860
Newest is 7.020
I want to update my ipillt link controller and remote and my 899.
According to humminbird website the latest ipilot link software is ONLY for 899 units with software 6.9 and above.
I dont know what order i should update everything in. I dont want to update my 899 to the latest version and have the same issue possibly happen as before.
And I dont want to update the controller and remote as the HB site says its only for software 6.9 and above.

Any thoughts on this guys.
Thank you.

Nevermind guys. I ended up updating the ipilot link to the software that came on the unit from factory. Then updated my 899 to the latest version, then again updated my controller and remote. All is well now. I am happy :)
