Or maybe the math is just kicking my...
TZT16, with 525STID-MSD. Keel daft (actually prop draft) is 4.6". The transducer is 3.6' below the waterline.
Actual depth in our slip just this minute is 5.3' -- according to the other depth finder, which I've checked against an actual bottom measurement using a boat hook.
FF read-out is hovering around -2.4'... minus 2.4'... seemingly no matter what I do, no matter where I set the "transducer draft" number. Currently set to 0.0. Have tried 1.1' (near enough to transducer draft, over prop depth), 3.6' (depth below waterline), several other numbers... nothing seems to change. I'd expect a) a positive number, and b) a value approx. .9'.
I've done a factory reset:
-- FF setup -- set hardware to factory default
-- TD setup -- reset default settings
-- auto-cruising is ON
-- auto range is ON
-- bottom search mode is OFF (earlier I was having some' "hunting" issues"
-- I've reviewed all the potentially related threads here
Soft mud bottom, here in the slip.
Guidance?
