no depth on display

[Anonymous]

hello,
I have a brand new furuno set up on my newly restored boat. I have MSD12 display, a furuno Ethernet hub, DFF1 and a 525 STID-MSD transducer. on my test run from lousiana to florida I had an airmar transducer and once I entered water deeper than 12.8 feet I lost my depth. when I returned i installed my 525STID-MFD trancducer as I thought the airmar was not compatible with my set up. in the bayou it seemed to work but again once I entered deeper water I lost the reading. now I cant get a reading at all. any ideas? currently in cancun mexico with out a depthfinder and wanting to continue on to panama

Seafish,
Do you see an X through the sounder icon in the upper right hand corner of the 3D display? If so, make sure the DFF1 is selected in the sounder menu under sounder source. If the DFF1 is selected make sure that the TX power is set at 10, TX rate at 20 and picture advance at 1/1.

Excuse my ignorance but I can't fine the TX power setting or rate. I am set for DFF1 on the install wizard. thanks.

Seafish,
It is under the DFF/ETR section of the SYSTEM menu.
