Reefmaster med oppdatering - viktig info for eldre Lowrance/Simrad enheter

Reefmaster har sluppet en vedlikeholdsoppdatering. Bruker du programvaren, så husk å klikke på "Check for updates" neste gang du skal lage kart.

Det to største endringene er viktige, både for brukere med nyere og eldre enheter fra Lowrance og Simrad. Den første er at dersom man også oppdaterer Insight Map Creator kan man på HDS-modeller bruke en funksjon som markerer bestemte dybdeintervaller. Dette kan da gjøres i HDSen på vannet, så ønsker man for eksempel å fiske på 5-10 meters nivå langsmed land kan man markere dette intervallet spesielt i kartet.

Dette er delvis en konsekvens av den andre viktige endringen, overgang fra å bruke Atlas 10 til Atlas 12 som standardeksport i Insight Map Creator. Tidligere har standarden vært Atlas 10, nå blir den altså Atlas 12. Enkelt sagt gir Atlas 12 flere muligheter, men ulempen er at eldre enheter IKKE støtter Atlas 12. Lowrance LMS og forrige generasjon Elite (den før Elite HDI og Elite CHIRP) kan ikke vise kart laget i Atlas 12 skikkelig. Lager du kart til eldre enheter, kan du velge å bruke Atlas 10 som eksport manuelt.

Fremover kommer kartene for HDS på www.dybdekart.no til å være laget med Atlas 12, og vil derfor støtte funksjonen for å markere dybdeintervall. Kartene for Elite vil være laget med Atlas 10, og kan derfor brukes av eldre enheter som før.

Jeg kommer nok tilbake med litt eksempler på dette etterhvert som jeg får testet det mer selv.

The perfect settings for Lowrance? A guide on how to set up your 2D-sonar part I.

Perhaps the most repeated question in Facebookgroups and forums regarding marine electronics: "What are the best settings?" The bad news is that there is no uniform answer to that. The good news is that you can adjust settings according to conditions if you have a little knowledge as to what settings you should tweak and why. Here is part 1 of our guide to get the most out of your unit in regards to settings.

What is the difference between HDS Carbon and HDS Live?

Here we go again, a new generation of the Lowrance HDS. And with that Facebook and the different forums are flooded with questions referring to the difference between the new and the old. So what is the difference between Lowrance HDS Live and HDS Carbon?

Lowrance Elite Ti2 versus Elite FS

  When Lowrance launches a new mid-range unit, it is a big deal. Forums and Facebookgroups light up with questions on the new stuff, differences towards the old stuff and questions on compatibility. As usual, we in Team Colibri will try our best to sort that out, both on a technical level and with a more practical in-your-boat approach.

Lowrance Hook 2 versus Lowrance Hook Reveal

You have to hand it to Lowrance when it comes to the name of their new entry-level line of sonar and chartplotters. We all want to hook up, and what better way to do that then by having our marine electronics reveal to us where the fish are?

What is the difference between Lowrance HDS Live and Elite Ti2?

Lowrance as a brand of marine electronis is well known to all anglers, but the differences within their range of different models seem to cause quite a few questions out there. Here we will try to outline the difference between Lowrance HDS Live (top end) and Lowrance Elite Ti2 (middle range). Lowrance Elite Ti2 vs Lowrance HDS Live (photo; lowrance.com) As usual, we will start with the tech and then try to translate those technical aspects to practical differences while out on the water. Hardware - housing, screen and connections. The screen and housing on Elite Ti2 is the same as on the previous Elite Ti, and again more or less the same as on HDS Gen 2 Touch. (The memorycard-door and mounting-bracket is different from HDS Gen 2 Touch.) This is by no means new stuff, and compared to the more advanced housing and screen on HDS Live, Elite Ti2 is starting to show its relative age. However, with that in mind it is worth noting that when looking at the competition, several of ...
