Please help me --set up Lowrance--Lake Insight Map Card data NOT displaying on HDS Gen 2

Post by Branch »

Hi--everyone!
I'm using setup :Lowrance HDS Gen 2 and Lake Insight HD East V16 (just bought this card)

(this is NOT Insight Genesis)

I have the latest operating system for HDS Gen 2 4.045.2.200

I have talked to Lowrance before bought card (they agree details below should show up on HDS)

I talked to Lowrance Senior Tech Support (then tried on the water)



According to my research for this EXACT set up Lowrance states online I should get on screen for Lake Nockamixion (Eastern, Pa.---which is ON-- Lake Insight list of lakes Standard Edition)

> channels and underwater highways

When I use it----- It shows "loading charts"....

but I can't even get one contour line for Lake Nockamixion to display on screen (when I have my set up on or off the Lake)


HDS has loaded other maps from cards fine.
I must be setting it up wrong??

Could anyone PLEASE tell me what I'm doing wrong?
---I would really appreciate some input?

Thank you

Branch

Do you have any screen shots to share?
What have you selected for chart source, Lowrance or Navionics?

*No screen shots----
>When it starts with chip in---it just displays on screen---"Loading charts"
>Under Chart menu----just see blue water(plus my waypoints) and
not a single contour line on blue water

It's like chip did nothing to lake display.


*I selected "Lowrance" chip to use

I really appreciate your input!

Hi Everyone (& Edd)

Card I bought was defective

Lowrance replaced it

Now Lake Nockamixion "loads up"

Thanks to all (& Edd)
