sounds like there is something wrong with it. it should track you. i had one that i sold recently and it worked great when running or trolling around with the tm. you might want to get ahold of lowrance and see what the tech rell you. i can say this itd been discontinued and they have no parts for it.. but maybee you need to reboot the software in it and that wil put it back to square one like it was out of the box...bill

I had an Eagle Status, which is the same thing, and it did the same thing. Go into the menu and then GPS setup. Go down and turn off position pinning. This allows the unit to mark your position even at slow speeds. The function is used to prevent , say, an anchored boat that is drifting back and forth, from using all its available memory for trail marks, when it isn't really moving anywhere.
