| Hey ya’ll…
I am trying to transfer waypoints From a chip into my Hds 10. Gen2 (non touch)
Here is where I am at thus far. I have backed up all trails and way points to an SD card. I have cleared and purged the system. When I go to import a 9 MB user file v4 I get to 1% import and the system crashes.
Soft restart, same thing… crash/reboot at 1%
Hard restart with update to last version available from Lowrance for this legacy unit (4.0)
I try to import the new file, which I got from a friend. We took his boat on a trip last year and I am taking way points from his Hds live and exporting them as file version 4 to load into my units. After all the, same crash at 1%. What am I missing?
I can, thankfully, reload my previously saved trails and way points. The loading process looks slightly different than when I try to load new stuff.
Help.
I know it’s Sunday, I’ll try Lowrance tomorrow, not sure if they will even help with this unit/model. Thanks. |

Location: Mt. Zion, IL | I think I have used v5 on gen 2 non touch units before. I had to use the version that didn’t store depth of the waypoint to get it to work from my live to my old gen 2’s |

Location: 31 | Years ago we had issues trying to save old icons/waypoints onto our next generation Lowrance units, removing the trails was the ticket.
Recommend: saving to your friends unit (after saving and deleting his existing files), deleting everything except the waypoints on his unit, copy, they attempt the install.
