Hds 9 gen II touch problem

Post by Bass4688 »

Cannot pick up tide stations at the delta. Put two units on the boat both doing the same thing.

Do you have 'Dynamic Tides and Currents' checked in the menu (turned ON)?

Make sure Lowrance is selected instead of Navionics.

Are you seeing the little icons with a 'T' on the screen?
Maybe you could post a screen capture next time you go out.

Yea the T symbols are on the screen and I can touch those and get into tide graph but it's not correct and if you just touch the tide box on left hand side of graph it tells you no tide stations found.

So here's a thought....actually a guess...do you have the correct time zone set up in the unit? Tide predictions are done about a year in advance so it seems odd for them to be 'way off' by location. BTW I'm not even sure the time zone has anything to do with the display of tide predictions. I will check this on Saturday to see.
