Greetings,
I just bought a sea pro and it came with a 788ci. It has the navionics fish and chips eastern card in it. It did not come with a PC cord. I would like to accomplish three goals:
1. Update the firmware on the humminbird
2. Update the software on the humminbird and card
3. Upload some tracks, routes and waypoints that I downloaded from my garmin.
So, I have done a little reading and my questions are as follows:
1. Do I absolutely need a PC cord or can I accomplosh all of this by putting it on a card and inserting the card into the unit? If not all, can some of this done be done with the card?
Final independent questions -
2. Is the data on the Fish and Chips card the same as what is provided on nautical charts. I do not like those contours and would prefer to just have the depth values but I cannot seem to get it to display that. Any suggestions. Can you add nautical charts to the Humminbird.
6. When I have my humminbird powered up and I turn my boat motor off and then turn it back on, my Humminbird cuts off. I have to actually remove it from the mount and then insert it again to get it to power back on. Any thoughts?
Thank you for your guidance.
