Is the HB unit capable of recording the 360 scan. If so what program is available for review or are we stuck with unit playback?

That's a great question Chuck.

Somebody get Martin on the phone....
Hey Martin..you up for another HB code-breaking challenge...:)

Maybe we should have sent him Christmas presents. I forgot what a bribe might bring us..... ::).... >:D..... ;D..... ;)

I would be that you can record it. I would think the demo mode is playing a recording.....haven't seen anyone specifically say that though.

Hi,
I suppose you can Record the 360 and they have added some additional data stream to the recording files, e.g. The angle of the transducer in order to align the Data recorded to the 360 screen.
The only program I currently know beging capable to show a 360 Screen is drdepth, but only together with its own DIY 360 solution (Polulu Maestro Controller), but perhaps Per can / is willing to adapt DrDepth to the humminbird 360 solution Recording files...
Opening a Humminbird 360 recording in any other viewer will most likely end up in looking on many continuously turns :-)

Hi
It is incredible, that HB still has not own review software. :(
Should take example on LOWRANCE.

all of the sonars we use (6) have factory viewing programs other than a playback on the unit.. HB is the only one that doesn't. Chuck

No you cannot record the 360 Imaging sonar data.
Humminbird does not have a PC based sonar viewer.
-
I'll bet that Rickard and xSilmarilSx can create/write one. :)
-
Hey guys, I was informed that you cannot record the 360 Imaging sonar data. I went back and edited my post above.
-
Greg,
Is the reason being: There's just too much information
there, and it would quickly fill up an SD card?
-
Even if you could record the 360 information, it would be pretty hard to display on a map. Like DrDepth can do.
Since the scanning is done in rotation and you move with the boat, all you would see on the map will be mostly a blur.
-
Tell me again.
What is the purpose of the 360?
I can see where it would not fit into mapping but why would we not want to be able to record and play back or view?
On another thought...has any one got a 360 yet. Heard there was some issue with getting one..
I did notice that the HB site now has 4 mounting brackets for the 360.. Maybe we have to get one of them before the 360....

I have had a 360 mount on one of my boats for five months now and STILL no 360 unit!

Roddy maybe you did not get the right one (bracket). ...... ;D

I think (my opinion here) that the reason for this is that the 360 Imaging is data from an accessory (remember, this is not just another Si transducer cabled or switched to and from the unit) over the Ethernet connection. You can’t record shared sonar either and this is basically what the 360 Imaging is doing: sharing sonar data.
-
We have been shipping the 360 Imaging accessories for a few weeks now (not sure when we started). Roddy’s may or may not be on its way to the dealer he ordered it from.

Chuck i made a bracket for my boat, but dont no the hole pattern
for the 360 so i havent drilled holes yet . so i guess that makes my bracket universal. still no 360 thow :'(
-
After looking at the HB brackets I dont see why a person cant make their own. Glad you did...
Chuck

heres picture of the 360 bracket that i made. still not quite finished waiting on the final component (http://i826.photobucket.com/albums/zz187/kosmo012/2013-01-06081339.jpg)(http://i826.photobucket.com/albums/zz187/kosmo012/2013-01-06124034.jpg)

NICE WORK! Welds are premium. Like the "lighting holes".
Not your first day on the job. lol
Tell me about the center piece on the table.

Nice sturdy bracket. Hope the 360 gets to you soon.
Show us pictures when it is all installed.

thats a copper tree with some stainless wire rapped around it with some paper clips,washers and some little nuts on it. (i get creative some times) :)

Interesting .... I was thinking this would be a bow mount. Never thought about the transom. By all means keep us updated.
Have we determined if the picture can be snapshot and if recording and reviewing is possible..
Chuck
-
Kosmo, Awesome! Beautiful boat by the way!
-
Hey Kosmo, what tweaking do you need to do? What have you learnt about the install?
-

as far i can tell the unit wont record the 360 but does take snapshots. i see no reason why the 360 could not easily be mounted on the bow.it just needs to fold down for high speed.im going to modify my bracket later, so it will tilt forward. it wont go under my garage door as it is
-
Kosmo, when I get mine I also want to tilt it. There is a tilt bracket on the HB site.
-
What we need is a quick detach mount too!

Another quick question. Do you plan on using this while sitting still or at a slow troll speed..

Nice install. Curious if it would set back far enough for the 998 to get clear L/R beams.
