    Try double clicking menu and tab over to set up, I think. Look at "views". You may have to enable that view.

    Sounds like your GPS module is not "being seen" by the unit.
    Check connections to gps.
    If the unit doesn't detect a gps antenna connected, it will only show sonar options and no gps options/menus

    The 798ci HD SI is internal GPS ...

    Try Restore Defaults under the Setup tab ...

    Then make the "Accessories Test" view visible under the Views tab, exit out of the menu system, and cycle thru the views to the "Accessories Test" view and see if the GPS is connected ...

    If that doesn't work ... You can connect an external GPS antenna or call HB ...

    Thanks. Already did all that. It says it's not connected. Emailed humminbird waiting in response. Tried doing software update but no help
