Humminbird electronix Q?

Upfront warning: Airborne is a digital dummazz. Request you craft your responses accordingly.

Replaced my sonars w/ HB. Everything works great except for one thing - water temp reading. On both units the water temp number is fixed, does not change. Temp relfected is nowhere near our current water temps. I do have water temp function on both transducers. I understand some views do not include water temp on the display.

Q: Will changing the NMEA setting (to the "on" position) fix this? I read in the operator's manual that the NMEA function controls a number of things, including water temp. Factory default is "off" for this function.

I have an email in to the HB help line but no reply yet. Exploring all options for help on this one.

thanks in advance,
B

BBC www.bassboatcentral.com has an excellent forum on these units. Sure you can find help there quickly.

Hit the easy button! Call HB support 800- they helped with every question I had when I bought my 997 a couple years ago.
