[@donbenson5048]

Thank you. I have the Elite 9Ti. I had different screen choices at times, but thanks to your directions, I still managed to get through it fine. 😊

Hi, great video best info around on these units. I need some help with info on how to reset the odometer to zero. I use it to compliment my erratic fuel gauge. Thanks

Thank you for the vid it was very good. I have the fs 7 Lowrance 21 model and purchased cmaps revel . When I go to the shaded relief its there but I cant click on it. Its slightly shaded as if the cmaps don't support it. Do you think if i do a system upgrade that could fix it?

[@nightanddaymarine8823]

Did u buy the card from a store or did you download it? If you bought from the store you might need to update the card on the cmap website.

[@JayJvXz]

Do you need to leave SD card in after update to maintain update or is it safe to remove after the update?

[@nightanddaymarine8823]

You want to take the card out after the update otherwise it will keep trying to install the update everytime you turn the display back on.

Does the hook 7 reveal triple shot have WiFi?

[@nightanddaymarine8823]

No that one does not. Only the newer Elite and HDS series displays have wifi.

[@chrissnineyearwildlifejour9525]

@@nightanddaymarine8823 Thank you for replying. Darn it, I was hoping.

[@larryd.collins7996]

Do you really need the SD card at all. Doesn't Lowrance update Straight to the Unit without the card? I have ab Elite FS and updated my similar to what you demoed except without the SD card. I do that for each of my units, as I pull them off the boat after each outing while storing boat.

[@davemoulding8799]

First thing how you doing it in house , you need power plug to unit ?

[@nightanddaymarine8823]

I use a 7A, 12V lead acid battery. They sell them at Walmart for $20 in the camping area

[@nightanddaymarine8823]

Tho I technically connected two of them together in parallel to double my amperage. That way it runs the bigger screen displays without issue. I gurilla taped them together and use terminal connectors.

[@adhnan_mohamed]

Can I use c-map as a SD card at the time of software installation?

[@nightanddaymarine8823]

So... technically but I wouldn't necessarily recommend it.

[@tombaker3696]

Can I use the same card to update both bow and console units?

[@nightanddaymarine8823]

If they are both the same type of displays like they are both HDS Carbons or both Elite FS or whatever then absolutely you can.

[@mickknowles4096]

Is it still possible to do update on hds live via wifi??? Or have they made it now only via computer/ sd card ?

[@nightanddaymarine8823]

Yes you can. You might need to insert a blank SD card into your display first but you can definitely do it over wifi.
