@@russellgascoigne2591 Stay tuned. We are woking on one and should have a video up soon. You got a great Garmin and I am sure you will be very pleased with your purchase. It has tons of features and the more you play with it the easier it is to use.
In general, the TI units are faster in response to inputs. This is seen when quickly switching between sonar, downscan, chart, and split screens ua-cam.com/users/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.
Glad you enjoyed the video. Make sure to subscribe to the channel. We have a lot of videos planned for the year. If there is something specific you would like to see let us know.
I purchased and installed uhd 94sv and Lake Card on my Seahawk. I’m in SF Bay Area. Boat is stored at marina in Antioch,Ca. Most of my fishing is west Delta area. I towed to SF bay for halibut. Chart plotter was not showing any depth numbers on the maps. Had to turn off Garmin. Remove Lake Card. Restart Garmin map depth numbers were indicating depth. Question is, is there anyway to select to select installed maps or card? Do I need to remove Lake Card when on the coast?
We are glad it helped. A unit with a worldwide base map would be the better option in your situation for use in Philippine waters. Then add a chart card for the location you boat in. You can see your options on the Garmin website. maps.garmin.com/en-US/marine?key=wdq9709ju602
From Garmin's Instructions: Setting the Keel Offset You can enter a keel offset to compensate the water depth reading for the transducer installation location. This allows you to view the depth of the water below the keel or the true depth of the water, depending on your needs. If you want to know the water depth below the keel or the lowest point of your boat and the transducer is installed at the water line or anywhere above the end of the keel, measure the distance from the transducer location to the keel of the boat. If you want to know the true water depth and the transducer is installed below the water line, measure the distance from the bottom of the transducer up to the water line. NOTE: This option is only available when you have valid depth data. Measure the distance: If the transducer is installed at the water line Callout number one or anywhere above the end of the keel, measure the distance from the transducer location to the keel of the boat. Enter this value as a positive number. If the transducer is installed at the bottom of the keel Callout number two and you want to know the true depth of the water, measure the distance from the transducer to the water line. Enter this value in as a negative number.

If the transducer is connected to the NMEA 2000® network, select Settings > Communications > NMEA 2000 Setup > Device List, select the transducer, and select Review > Keel Offset. Select Plus symbol if the transducer is installed at the water line, or select Minus symbol if the transducer is installed at the bottom of the keel.
how do i just view a way point on the map. I'm home sitting at my desk. I have a waypoint called 004 which is on a lake, 200km away. i want to click it and view that lake.
As long as you can power the unit up you can create waypoints and routes. You can also do them on your smart device using the Active Captain app. Stay tuned for a video on that.
Your not doing anything wrong, you just don't have that feature turned on. First get on the chart screen. Then click the menu. Look for the Layers tab and click it. Then look for user data and click it. You will see an option for waypoint display. Make sure you click it and a little green bar will appear on the tab. Your waypoints will now show on the chart.
You need to go to the Home screen then Settings and look for the simulator option and turn it off there. It may have a different software version that only shows a demo mode. If so turn that to off. Still unable to? then call 1-800-800-1020 when in front of the unit and a Garmin tech can walk you through it.
Absolutely. You want to make sure you have the right charts loaded to get maximum detail. You can always pull coordinates for the route from paper charts as well.
Is there anyway to save waypoints if you default a 94sv UHD2 to factory. Setting? Oh yeh.. why doesn't Garmin tell you you need a mini SD card to download Active Captain before you use it? Seems misleading.
It seems something is changed in your settings. if you are in the US try calling the tech line when you are in front of the unit and they can walk you through resetting it. The number is 800 800 1020.
You can use a trail to follow your path back to where you started. To activate tracks do the following: From a chart, select MENU > Layers > User Data > Tracks. Select the tracks to display. A trailing line on the chart indicates your track.
Would you like to see a video on Echomap fish finder set up and understanding Echomap's fish finder features? Let us know.
That would be fantastic. Just bought one with a mate and we are real amateurs starting out (retired and wanting to fish) Don’t know what to look for.

Thanks for watching.
What about if you still have the g3 navigation card and still takes you overland or it says error.
Sir thanks for the video it helps me a lot. Sir can you please tell me which of the uhd chartplotter model that is suitable for philippine waters

The screen resolution of this unit is still 480*800, this is outrageous!! We're in 2021 not 2011!!!
do you have videos on setting up the depth of the boat on the GPS?

Can I create routes on my iPad using Navionics, the xfer those routes to the Echomap 94sv?
You should be able to via Garmin's Active Captain App.
how do i just view a way point on the map. I'm home sitting at my desk. I have a waypoint called 004 which is on a lake, 200km away. i want to click it and view that lake.
Is there an auto guidance on the UHD unit like this?
You can enjoy auto guidance capability buy adding a G3 Vision chart card for your area.
Can you enter gps coordinates on this model?
You can enter GPS coordinates as well as Loran TD's as waypoints with this chart plotter.
Can you create them when you’re at home with it plugged in to the base?
As long as you can power the unit up you can create waypoints and routes. You can also do them on your smart device using the Active Captain app. Stay tuned for a video on that.
Aqua Lifestyle Is there a special cable I can buy to boot it up inside my house?
I have the same unit. I can make wavepoints, but they don't show up on my maps. My wavepoints are saved. What am I doing wrong?
Your not doing anything wrong, you just don't have that feature turned on. First get on the chart screen. Then click the menu. Look for the Layers tab and click it. Then look for user data and click it. You will see an option for waypoint display. Make sure you click it and a little green bar will appear on the tab. Your waypoints will now show on the chart.
Thanks. I will try it tomorrow.
How do you take Echomap 73sv out of simulator mode. Thanks
You need to go to the Home screen then Settings and look for the simulator option and turn it off there. It may have a different software version that only shows a demo mode. If so turn that to off.

Can I do a route from San Francisco to Hawaii?
Absolutely. You want to make sure you have the right charts loaded to get maximum detail. You can always pull coordinates for the route from paper charts as well.

how do you hook this unit up at home to set it up
Because they do not offer an AC adapter you will need to use the power cord (make sure you have it fused and connect it to a 12 volt battery.
My navigation wasnt showing wear I was on nav charts then it did but wasnt on fish charts dont lnow why
It seems something is changed in your settings. if you are in the US try calling the tech line when you are in front of the unit and they can walk you through resetting it. The number is 800 800 1020.
Hi how do I find trail on my echomap 73cv I was told by a few people that I have to use A trail on my unit to be able to find my way out and back in ?
You can use a trail to follow your path back to where you started. To activate tracks do the following:
From a chart, select MENU > Layers > User Data > Tracks.
Select the tracks to display.
A trailing line on the chart indicates your track.

Navionic works better, looks better, is simpler, has better features and is faster on the phone. I have Android and it is fantastic...
Glad you were able to find something that works for you.
Auto nav card? You're kidding right
The interface is terrible, and slow and cumbersomw.
