Yes sir we have. We put a HB 999 on the 997 boat set up and it worked perfect. I'm gonna try factory default 1 more time. Take out Map card an reload version 6.3 which its running on now I believe. My buddy that bought it talked to HB an I thought he said they did a re- boot. Is that possible and if so how can I do it again? I know on my old Lowrance 334 you could do a soft or hard re-boot. Press pwr and 2 other buttons at the same time type deal.
HB units only have the Restore Defaults under the setup tab ...
HB has a sequence they call "Flashing the operation system" ... But I don't think users have privy to that scenario ...
Reverting to older software is about the only thing left to try that I can think of ...
