RE: [DG11] Sonarchart Live, depth offset
Thanks once again Derek, for your time and effort.

But once again, you managed to get me confused again.

So, lets see if i get this right:
- The Sonar transducer, is independant of the Depth transducer.

Yes, this is what i would expect.

- The settings used for the depth transducer are not used by the sonar.

Sorry, i would say No to this part. If i keep the Sonar transducer offset to "Below Waterline", but change the Depth transducer offset to "Keel". The Depth displayed on the Sonar changes and SonarChart Live doesn't show the depth calculated with the Sonar offset. But the depth calculated with the Depth Transducer Offset.

- The Sonar transducer can have an offset entered, but this does not get used when using SONARCHART live for the reasons advised before.

I understand why i would need to set the Sonar offset to "below waterline", as that would be the only way to calculate the true depth, without an extra offset. I fail the see, why it doesn't use the offset in SonarChart Live.
