Downvision = blackscreen

[Dave - Raymarine - Moderator]

Hello ubettcha,

Thank you for your response.

If your numerical depth reading is displayed in the databar, or another fishfinder screen, then you may be seeing a depth reading from a different transducer/sounder on board. You are able to change the transducer providing your depth reading for your display by following these button presses: From Home screen> setup> system settings> data sources> depth> select your depth source.

If the numerical depth reading is in the bottom left corner of a single Downvision fishfinder screen, there is a possibility the angle of your transducer is affecting its performance. If you are using a transom mounted transducer, I would try changing the angle of it. The transducer may be missing a lot of the return sound wave and the sounder is not able to produce a proper image, but has enough coming back to produce a numerical readout.

If changing the angle of the transducer does not help, and you have checked all settings are normal, then you may have something wrong with the transducer.
