[DG11] Sonarchart Live, depth offset

RE: [DG11] Sonarchart Live, depth offset
Then why is Sonarchart Live, using the Normal depth transducer, displayed depth to calculate the depth displayed on Sonarchart live. While the Sonar is displaying a complete different depth?

And yes, its using the normal depth and not (as one would expect) the sonar depth.

So in 2.5 meter water, the Sonar will display 2.5 meter water. At the same time, the normal depth will show 0.7 meter water (as this is set to below keel)
And thus, Sonarchart Live, will display on the chart a depth of 0.7 meter.

So the sonar knows the real depth, but Sonarchart live, will use the 0.7 meter.

So this is either a bug, Sonarchart Live is using the wrong depth. Or it is some kind a safety feature, Sonarchart Live, uses the smallest depth reported in de system.

Either way, i would like to have Sonarchart Live, use the Sonar Depth.
