A hard boot is completed by holding the power button down for 10-20 seconds. Make sure you do not let up on the button until it reboots.
You could try that
Hmmmm…. Not sure what a “Hard Boot” is Rickie unless it is applied to my backside! :o
I’m wondering if this has something to do with the reset function on the ONIX units which will reset everything (including waypoints).

While reading your second link to Walleye Central, I noticed Jason Halfen is the poster recommending the Hard Boot.
I would think he is a creditable source of information. This may get interesting. Here is a link to part of his site.

Nothing yet Rickie, but keep reminding me to check on this.
I don’t Rickie.
I was thinking the same thing but also would have thought that I would have heard about a hard reset in our products by now.
Jason...
Would you take a minute and visit this thread to give us some insight on a couple of posts at walleye central that I happened across ...

That's an instruction I received directly from the factory about a week ago, while troubleshooting an ONIX issue I was having.
I do not know if it applies to the core units as well.
That is a “No” on a Hard Reset/Reboot for our core products (300, 500, 700, 800, 700, 800, 900, 1100 series) and for the ONIX products.
No confirmation on the ION products yet but this may be where it all started from and it is a good time to remind everyone that the core products, the ONIX and ION products are all different from one another: what works for one may not work on the others.
