h2o c

On my h2o c yesterday i would zoom in and it would kick back out wide again after about 5 seconds...The low battery warning was on, was that why? Have not tried with new batt. yet.

Mine has not done that when low battery was on. Did you have the light on as well at this time?? Not that it matters, but maybe?? I don't think it should have been doing this.

light wouldnt even come on at that point the batt was to low.

Mine also did that the other day. In the three years I have used it I never saw that before... very frustrating. I don't recall what my battery level was. I would sure like to know if it was a setting I accidentally changed.

I don't think it's going to be a setting. You are sure that you were not hitting the exit/cancel button (I can't remember what it is called on the H20c)? You might want to consider the hard/soft reset or call Lowrance. The reset has been talked about on prior discussions in this forum I believe.

Must be the low battery causing it. I saw one do the same thing this weekend. Try zooming in close and it would bump out to 200 mi. range. Changed batteries and it stopped doing it. I just think it has a hard time loading the details when the battery is low.

I think i figured out my problem, I never cancelled the nav to a waypoint and in auto zoom mode it will keep the waypoint on the screen.Being 20 miles away at a different lake would explain it. It was zooming out to keep the poi on the screen.Hope so anyway will see next trip out.
