    Thank you for your time--it was a great help. There are a lot of other settings to investigate but this is a great start.

    I wish there was a way to lock in your settings so that you can keep them instead of going through this every time you turn off your finder

    After I make all my setting adjustments and power the unit down, the next time I turn it on the settings have not been saved. What’s going on?

    So even tho you set the settings like you like, but when you shut it down, you have to do it all over again when you want to use it again, anyway there is a way to save settings

    In general, the TI units are faster in response to inputs. This is seen when quickly switching between sonar, downscan, chart, and split screens ruclips.net/user/postUgkxeAxH15LxhjGlg5-CRYqjTGTEH0tbY4vk recommend The Hook units will show some lag on button pushes and screen switching. The big ticket item though is maps. If you install a mapping card such as Navionics or the free C-Map Genesis which has a lot of map detail, then moving around the map with the cursor or when running down the lake can lag significantly on the Hook units, but is seamless with the TI units.

    What is the minimum distance from the prop you can mount the transducer

    • @dragsmoothfishingtv635
      @dragsmoothfishingtv635 3 года назад

      15 inches is what’s recommended minimum.
      Also placement of the transducer place matters.
      Make sure it’s flush with the bottom of the boat so you don’t get a rooster 🐓 tail while on the water.

    Can I add side imaging to my Helix 5

  • @758Dino

    Hi. so the fish finder has been installed for some time now. I have one issue with this unit. sometimes when reading the bottom, example at 400 feet, it gets lost and then starts reading 0' or say 4', which of coarse is an error. I have to then power of then power on again to reset the unit to start reading properly again. and this may happen several times. Its very annoying. any idea why this may be happening?

      lane moore you will have to find the water offset on your menu and adjust from there. Also depends on how it is mounted on your boat! Tight lines !!!!

      can only choose metric if it's the international model. I'm in Canada and would like the same, but can't.
